It is instantly hard to put a car back to stock 50 year on. It can take many years to make a car factory fresh. Same can be said for lowing a car, or changing the camber and what not.
Just because they don't race the car's doesn't mean they aren't part autosports.

Not putting time and money into that kind of stuff isn't my thing. But I do respect it as part of what we do.
Holy fuck I totally forgot about this hot mess. No, car shows do not have any quantitative points of assessment. Unless you're going to refer to a low rider car hopping cholo party. Car shows are all qualitative.

Stretched tires make you slower. Racer boy slams make you slower. You can put all the power mods and aero you want the fact is that the suspension and tires (arguably the most important parts) are based on fashion. It's the automotive equivalent of doing squats high heels.
