Judging categories

---------------------------------------------Originally posted by seanbOkay, static drop or bags has nothing to do with your class. It's the number of mods you've got done. (at least at our show) At Showfest we have quite a few classes for the most popular makes and models because we get so many vehicles. I think we have Street, Mild, Wild, and Radical. We use a point system to decide what class you'll go into. So for instance, window tint may be a 2 point item and body drop may be 20 points. We try to have points for just about everything you can modify. So say your points ad up to 92. Wild class is something like 80 - 100 points so that the class you belong in. We think it is THE most fair way to do classing. Similar number of mods = similar class. That's what's worked for us anyway. And for judging, we break out the 4 main areas of the vehicle –– Exterior, Interior, Engine, and Undercarriage. Then we have about 5 things we look at under each. Cleanliness, Quality of mods, Detail, etc. ---------------------------------------------Yeah, I like that the best. What classifies for the Street class?

Most under construction classes I've seen/been in are dictated by the amount of primer/ lack offinish work done.  Running and driving has no bearing on under construction at all...

Street is basically the same as 'Stock' at our show except we really don't want a bone-stock vehicle in the show. It's somewhere in the 20 points max range. Very few mods. Keep in mind, classifying points are NOT the same as judging points.   The number one thing that counts in judging is cleanliness and quality of work. You try to not judge whether or not YOU AS A JUDGE would do a particular mod but rather HOW WELL THEY executed it.   Just because I don't like tuck and roll seats doesn't mean it can't be scored high. If you're leather seats are torn or look worn out, but the lowrider next to you (in your class) with crushed velvet is clean and free of tears, they're getting more points. If your 24" Boyds are curbed and dented, someone with 15" spotless and dent free rims (in your class) is getting more points. That's how FAIR judging works.

I realy like that way of judging!
