...So its a tossup as to which cars are awarded.
Theoretically, you can have maybe only an intake and rims and place 1st and have another car in the same category with 100+ mods and that car won't even place.

That doesn't make sense. If the two cars are truly that different, they should be in different categories. That's like having a Ferrari race a Pinto followed by a Porsche vs. a Rabbit...common sense tells you what the pairings should be.

I don't think the judges have any criteria to judge by other than your name on the sticker and what type of car it is.
I think its hilarious!

The judging, I agree with you, they were shitty at it. I think they do just pull names out of their asses, i mean hat, and thats who gets picked. The guy who won first place in my category had these ugly ass rims, it was a stock sedan with not much done to it, no originality whatsoever.

Had I known that it didn't take much modding, I would've entered my car with just rims and body kit! LOL
Sucks to hear that you didn't place, Eric.

That's pretty cool man, thanks for noticing.
I'm happy the TL is getting a little respect in the tuner world.
