Brent Jones got screwed

Sounds just like a lot of people you come across in this world...They just do what they like and it has nothing to do with what is right. They usually create a justification for their actions. I try to avoid falling into this situation. It is an easy way of life to fall into.

There are so many nice cars, well engineered ones etc at Indy. It is really hard to pick one over the other. I am not a big fan of SC rear engine dragsters, I just see so many out there. This one was nice too. Pittman's car is a Chevy, and it is a nice one.

I saw the Driller. It is cool! That being said, if we don't agree with the judging process, please don't make it someones fault for being selected.

Send your DD an e mail asking them to reconsider their selection process.

My two cents anyway.

BTW, my stuff won't ever be in the hunt in either category! I did get an award for an oil down though! LOL.

Beautiful detail on this super stocker. Imagination, Engineering, Performance, a true work of art. Had my vote for best appearing.

Just who exactly decides who gets the special awards at nationals?????????????????

[Jeff Lee]

Wholly Smolly....that car is NICE! Previos pictures did no justice to that car.

I received best appearing at a national event first tim out with new paint job. I was not only humbled, but stunned. But still very proud of the award.

I would say Mr. Driller has his turn coming. That car is to nice to ignore!!!!!

From what I was told a few years ago its the press that decides the awards at national events

[G Schenck]

Tech crew decides and some have more stroke than others.

My dad said this was the nicest car he has ever seen, and he can fabricate anything as nice as anyone, those oil rigs on the fenderwells are bead rolled in, not just painted. Herb said this car isn't just a race car, from a fabricators stand point its a work of art.

I asked that question one time at a national event since a friend of mine had his new racecar there and the answer was National Dragster picks Best Appearing Car and Best Appearing Crew. The tech department picks Best Engineered.

Sounds like this time they were told to pick Best Appearing Chevrolet.
