Cool 1st PLACE TROPHY

I was in NC over the weekend for ZDAYZ Tail of the Dragon. What an awesome drive.... Along with this event of course was a car show. In preparation for this, I applied a coat of NXT with a PC the day before driving to NC. To keep the shine going I dusted and QD with BM. I recived a lot of compliments on how AMAZINGLY clean my car looked even after it started raining. I wasn't really expecting it but I was awarded the 1st Place Trophy in the stock category. All of my hard work has paid of with that trophy. Of course a lot of this is because of the things that I have learned over the last year in here, so THANKS all of you. I'll get some pictures posted later.

I never really understood the "stock" category. Walking through a stock car show is like walking through a Nissan dealership.

Well it all depends on the Car Show's definition of STOCK. At the last car show I entered they defined STOCK as cars with less than five visual mods. This particular one is three or less. Currently I have two mods which still puts me in the stock category. That was one thing that made me laugh when people tell me that my car is amazing because in a sense it's still stock, BUT an extremely well kept stock Z.

Okay, admit it, it was that free PC you won from Autopia that made your Z "WOW" the judges... right?

You are absolutely correct my friend, that and the FREE bottle of NXT and Tech Spray. Of course including all of the knowledge that I've learned here = 1st place trophy.

JC that's the same. What a rush I love that drive.....
