I'm so sick of seeing Paul winning all first places every year, he should be in a different level car show, leave some space for guys who do not have all kinds of sponsers like he does. I do not know, maybe I'm wrong - what do you guys think???

I agree. Let the teams compete against each other. Quite a few other guys that were there said the same thing.

Good to see you again Gytis!

I agree..sick and tired of the same "show" car winning every year. Leaves no chance for the local guys since we don't dump $150k into our cars. Pauls car is nice, but he showed up late anyway so he shouldn't even have been allowed in lol.

Gytis and Mike, I know exactly what this is all about. Paul did win the past three times I was there. Not too cool...... Also, they pushed us Lexus guys off in the corner in the 2008 show. I'm decking out a Scion, that is it. $100k into a $10k car!!!

Paul is a good guy and his car is tastefully modded. Well deserved win IMO. Sponsors or not he has put a lot of time and dedication into his car and I have a lot of respect for that.

Our cars do not compete with Paul's car. But you can still go and have a good time Or you can be like me and not attend Funny how things have changed. I'm sure there were some very nice cars and those that attended I hope you had a great time with some good peeps

So lets get onto the pics so I can see some of these rides
