should i enter my car?
 
in my experience with car shows so far, it's just been about everyone getting their car out there and meeting people and talking about the cars, no matter what stage they were in. looking at the vids and pics from past znationals though, it doesn't look like there are any less than perfect cars out there! my car is far from perfect. it's a stock N/A with a pretty crappy paint job, cheap seats, plain interior, and plenty of flaws. i definitely put all my effort into mechanical things on it. so my question is, from you all who have been there, should i enter my car, or just park it and spectate? it really doesn't matter to me either way.

nope...you are still missing your location, and the vehicle info.

I say give it a good detail and enter it. Most people there will look at your mechanical work with as much or greater respect than the interior.

Plus, fixing up the interior isnt expensive nor difficult. A bottle of half purple power and half warm water will do wonders for cleaning the cloth parts and some leather conditioning cream will make it look like new. Check the classifieds to replace any missing or broken parts, people usually give that stuff away pretty cheaply.

Good luck, post some before and after cleaning pictures too maybe.

ofcourse you should enter your car, everyone should enter their car thats going, the point is to just let your car out there so people can see it, and some people may like it, some people may not, but its not about that, its about just being able to have a good time and enjoy the show to its full effect.

im working on firing up my z by zcon and it will be different colors, probably one seat, and i dont have the slightest about the hood yet..lmao...but if its running it will be there ;)

thanks much guys. that's what i was expecting to hear, i just wanted to check before i pissed anyone there off.

You wouldn't piss anyone off as long as you aren't being a douchenozzle. It's all about the love of the car.

You still are missing the city you live in and the year of your car from your profile.

Re: should i enter my car?
 
i looked and they were there.

i guess i'll be seeing a lot of you there!

KasbeKZ 03-30-2009 01:31 PM

Re: should i enter my car?
 
are you kidding? i go to ODU too. i live in whitehurst. we should meet up. i don't think i've ever seen your car around. wait, is black emerald greenish? i've seen that one. that one's NICE. best stock N/A i've ever seen.

Roundabout136 03-30-2009 01:53 PM

Re: should i enter my car?
 
Hahah yea man. I'm going to take a wild guess and say yours is the pearl yellow in the whitehurst lot.

I know some people in Powhatan, so i've walked past your z many times haha.

KasbeKZ 03-30-2009 02:01 PM

Re: should i enter my car?
 
lol yeah that's me. that's crazy. it's not the factory yellow though. i doubt it's called pearl. how about this: the dirty yellow lol.

Re: should i enter my car?

You wake up in a panic and log onto the site and post "read the damn rules so I can sleep"

Re: should i enter my car?
 
There are less than perfect cars there. Its just that when people take and post pictures they usually put up their favorites and the nicer cars. Most all of us started in a less than perfect place and most of us arent perfect yet....but we keep trying!

Bring your car down and meet some great people and get some ideas about what you want to do to your car/which direction you want to go. Youll have a blast and be glad that you came.

KasbeKZ 04-23-2009 07:08 PM

Re: should i enter my car?
 
right on. i'm 99% positive i'll be there. pretty exited about it. i hope the caravan passes at a time i can make. that will be fun.
