common, what do you expect??

its about making a buck, not being fair to carbuilders.

ive been the editor of a national magazine in the same niche, and know what its like being an enthusiast in an advertising driven market. it phucks you off, but you soon learn they dont care about the cars, they are simply pawns in a bigger marketing scheme. in the ladder of importance at an event like this, the cars are WAYY down at the bottom!!

prime demographic of say hot 4's is males 15-22, with limited disposable income, and big dreams. same demographic [cabin] is feeding off.

look at it:
post 1986 = front wheel drive
car fashion = wank factor 10 harlquin paint

thats performance preclusive! its all about image and selling advertising space (read paying shop floor space). this is never going to be a show for performance, or all-go no-show vehicles. theyre not exciting enough for dumb phuck 16year olds who dont know anything other than how to spend their maccas money on 5" monster tachs.

yes, i hated working for the magazine!

cheers
