Going to the Armory on Saturday so I can climb the rock wall again, and on Sunday I’m going to check out the Edgerton 4th of July show. Its a new one I’ve never been to before
Luxuryliners,
I have to agree with you about the stock classes. Having a unrestored 20 year old vehicle being judged against something that rolled off the showroom floor is tough, as those cars are literally brand new. I think more shows, especially the larger ones, will have to adapt classes for stock 1990-1999 and 2000-current.
Sounds like one to stay away from. The lady saying she didn’t know much about cars and that she didn’t even like them is a total turnoff to anyone attending that show IMO. It makes one feel as if they are not wanted there and that they have wasted there time helping someone making there show a success.

I wouldn’t really consider the GM G-Body vehicles “modern muscle”. Sure they had big names like 442, SS, and Hurst on them, but all those v8 cars put out less than 200 hp stock. The intercooled GNs (86-87) were rated at 245 hp, but they were a 6cyl engine. Even though they can be quick, I still don’t consider them a ‘Modern Muscle’ car.
IMHO, the Modern Muscle class should be cars 1995-current model year. The mid-late 90s is when the American companies started pushing the hp back up, i.e. The LT1 (300hp), LS1 engines in the ’97 corvettes and 98-02 F body GM cars (325 & 345hp depending on application), The 4.6L 4V Cobra’s from Ford, etc. I would put the GM/Ford cars of the 80s and early 90s in either the stock or modified classes.

I know where my “buddy” fordasaki will be… :whistle:
I wish I would’ve seen this before I left :angry: I got to QSL about 8:30 with a few friends after we attended the Bethesda Cruise In over on East Wash. Most of the cars had left, and the pea gravel mess was a suprise. Especially after you just cleaned your undercarriage at lunch :angry: :angry:
