zeitgeist57 Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 (edited) I received an email from one of the organizers for the Arthritis Car Show (where I've judged for the last 3 years) that they are looking to start another Judging class for next year. It would include 9 cars from this year plus some more "younger" registrants that fit the category: CRX's, Mitsubishi Evo, Scions, VW GTI's, etc... What would you name this group? I thought "Tuned Imports"... FYI, The Ohio G Club/ZROC/Nissan Club has their own judging class for their members that are all Z's and G35/37s. This would be an '80s and newer mixed Japanese/German group... NAME SUGGESTIONS: - Tuned Imports - '80s-Current Euros and Tuners - Euro/Japanese Tuner Cars - Sport Compact or Tuned Compact Please be nice and constructive with your comments.

Doc1647545523 Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 The name "Fast & Furious" comes to mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbs3000 Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Sounds like a good idea, from experience when I've entered it in the past I nor the guy doing the paperwork had any idea what class to by my VR4 in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKilbourne Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Sounds like a good idea. We have come for enough from the F&F days to have some better looking/performing choices show up....I hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sledhead36 Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 I like the idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbs3000 Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 I like the idea As long as Scott isn't allowed in I would join it next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallard Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 I like the idea too. The Eyes On Design show has been doing this same thing for a while. I would probably stick to naming it some variant of Tuner or Modern Classics. However, if you say Model Classic, they shouldn't be covered in wings and body kits.

TimTaylor751647545500 Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 I've never been a fan of the term "tuner", but I know that's exactly what type of group you're talking about here, so the Tuned Imports title is a good choice.

Mallard Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Clay, what are the current show classes named? FWIW, I hate using the term "imports" as well. Why limit it to imports? What if someone has a Dodge Stealth or SRT4? I don't see a problem with the "Tuner" name, even though I find it annoying. It seems like that's been the accepted term for late-model hot rodder's. (i.e. The progression from hot rods, muscle cars, tuner cars) What about Sport Compacts, Modern Classics, Future classics, or VDub-steppin Sushi?
