    That thing should not have won, personally I think the orange with the shaved bay should have Thing looked amazing and had so much work put into it.

    I'm assuming this is why the organizers are covering their asses about judging this year?

    Pics?

    A big thank you to everyone who came out today. We honestly appreciate it more than you will know!!

    I want to address this now since it will undoubtedly come up. We are well aware there were some gaps with judging. The people who did the judging worked very hard with the limited support they had. They were battling the weather and the fact that there were only a few people who actually stepped up to help. We all know there will be people who are unhappy. Please let me know how upset/unfair/unjust you feel and i will personally pay to have a plaque made up with your name on it. No questions asked.

    I will say this, it isn't about the Vortex approved mods, it's about cleanliness, preparation, execution of theme, etc.

    Judging at this show is purely volunteer work, and most dont do it more then once cause everyone that loses crys like a little bitch. That comment by Blake was purely in preparation for that. Getting people to judge is like pulling teeth cause everyone love to blame some one when they get beat. And it ain't worth it.

    ok ok i do have a b5 s4 lol......but i never have showed my car and i only showed up because i thought my buddy fbm93 was having a power steering issue. what i am dissapointed in is that he has never placed at dustoff ever. along with a handfull of other b5's i am familiar with.

    If you mod your car and show up strictly for the $50 plaque I would be happy to have one made for you. Send me your name and address.

    If you don't like the judging get off your ass and help out. No one to blame but yourselves. While our volunteer judges, of which there were 4, were running around in the rain judging you were cowering inside your car or under an EZ UP. We have people bitching about the quality of the judging now but the same ones were bitching about how long it was taking to tally yesterday. So you want high quality and fast? Let me know how you make out with that in real life.

    Thank you for everyone that did help out. We sincerely appreciate it. And for those that prefer to sit behind a keyboard and bitch, organize your own show. I have a show winning Mk3 I would love to enter.

    As ugly as that pink Jetta is if you take the time to look at the car you will realize why it won. It is a "show car" everything I have seen on the car looked to have been done very nicely and it's what the owner wanted. If you want to complain about not winning with your daily when your competing again actually show cars maybe next time you shouldn't enter

    I miss the days when not winning at a show meant that you stepped up your game for the next show...now it's just bitching and moaning.

    I don't know her personally, but I have talked to her about her Jetta. She and her BF put the work into it and made it the way she wanted it to look, not based on what others want or might think.

    I, like others think it's a little over the top, but you have to appreciate the work put into it.

    Seriously, seemed like more people were looking to win the show than have a good time.

    I motion for an electoral college vote.

    Just stop judging for good. I thought the whole point of dustoff was to have a good time.
