If you think you deserve to win a trophy, then you DO NOT deserve to win a trophy. You're doing it for the wrong reasons.

Car shows should be about fun first. Fair competition is good, but it's not a reason to disrespect another Camaro, regardless of engines. Most people (outside of car people) don't care what engine the car has. It's just how it is.

Besides, it's a HOOTERS car show. Meaning popular choice (along with a pretty decent venue). This means your car wasn't popular enough that particular night. Big deal. Enter next time. You never know. What if you did win? Then what? If you entered next time and lost, you'd be crying worse about that.

He had aftermarket rims. That alone set him apart. I'm sure that tipped the scales along with the bumblebee look.

WTF is that that the Super Sport loses to a V6. Next time I am going to Bring my uncles R8 to the show and win a damn trophy!!

Hate to say it but my dad judged shows for years. You shouldn't feel bad about losing to a V6, the judge sees it on a car to car basis. Doesn't matter what size engine a vehicle would have, otherwise going to a car show would be stupid, and the guy with the biggest engine would win them all. Which is not what a car show is about.

When a judge is faced with a tough decision between cars they have to nit pick. By the end of the day one of these cars has to be a winner. If ever you think you are close to losing or you are in a tossup, clean your car off again before the judge gets back.

Trust me, the second time he looks (if your car was worhty enough for a second look) will be for any dust, fingerprints, door fit, anything they can find to make your car better than the other guys. The smallest thing can cost you the trophy every time. Something rubbed the judge in the wrong way about your car. That is why you lost.

IMO, I can almost guarentee that it was the fact that yours was blacked out.

i think the pedal covers should have made you win hands down

Congratulate the owner and find a charity to donate some time to. Much more productive.

Probably would have won with a good steering wheel cover.

OP, just know that we aren't trying to be mean. Just having fun.
