Car Show Judges

I searched but didn't find anything.How do judges at car shows score different parts on a car.I have put my car in the Nopi Sotheast Nationals the last 2 years.The first year i got first place in my class,and last year I got third.I have no carbon fiber parts and one of the cars that beat me had a carbon fiber hood,but had a lot less mods than my car.Does carbon fiber score big points?I'm sure some of you guys know how they score.

Are you serious? Wow I didn't know there was CF Rationing going on.

That has to be ONE of the stupidest things I've ever heard.

Haha I like the emphasis in that sentence... Don't you mean something like, "That has to be one of the STUPIDEST things..."

Nah... I didn't emphasis the stupid part... I hear lots of things that are very stupid.

Good episode of Seinfeld though.

most judge go by presentation. you get to tell them about your car right? if you know everything, and have receipts for those exotic parts you could only get in japan, you'll score big points. also the car must be clean inside and out. dont leave anything in the car. it doesnt matter the look, but then again some judge love projectors, tezzas, huge wing, but others might like cleaner look.

Basic rule of car shows: the more ridiculous your car looks, the better you will most likely do.

i.e. - if you have a huge spoiler, vinyl, crazy colors, nineteen unneeded guages, a drop that makes the car nearly undrivable on normal roads, and staggered rims on a Civic with a stock engine, you will do well.
