The 3rd annual Virtual Car Show (VCS) will be held in the begining of February. All participants in the VCS will have their car(s) judged by other forum members who will vote for their favourite car in each category. The members with the top 3 votes of each category will get a VCS trophy that will go under their username. Once an entry is received, I will update this thread to confirm that I have received your entry. Here are the winners from the 2005 show. The categories for the show are the same as last year, but if there are not enough cars submitted for a category, I will merge two categories together.

SEMI MODIFIED Cars with seat changes, carb, ignition, exhaust, roll bars, etc MODIFIED Cars with transmission changes, engine swaps, bodywork, suspension, EFI, etc RACING Cars setup for the track FOREIGN Any Maverick built outside of the USA and Canada.

I'm sending mine in for the hell of it. My minor cosmetic changes are a Grabber Grille and Ford license plate. I think we need a "beater/daily driver" catagory.
There should be a category for "Jack Stand Racers". There seems to be quite a few of us in that one. j/k about the category. Maybe I'll start a thread where we Jack Stand Racers post a pic of our 'race cars" - on jackstands of course.
Rick, I obviously would win that catagory. Pretty much when it wasn't driving, it was on jack stands getting worked on. I miss that rust free body.
Sent mine in just now for the stock class. Just can't get myself to modify it. Having too much fun as it is.
Sent mine in as well. I couldn't do it last year 'cause the car wasn't done yet. It definitely was a beater back then.
Yeah I know. The 3 x 1 intake with carbs/head is sitting on the work bench and I do have the header hanging on the wall, but well I dunno. Maybe on the next one.
i ate many a pumped chevy and even a few pumped fords with the stock 2 barrel and manifolds. if you like it as is, thats all good in my book.
If mine had a V8 I would do some bolt on stuff like intake and carb. Headers , distributor and maybe even a cam, but my 6 is so clean and stock I can't get myself to change things
