NSW VW Nationals

[syncro]

What a pack of wankers!
Just cause your Golfs aren't good enough you reckon there's corruption.
I'm not a member of the club and I've won plenty of trophies!
What about the trophies he won at other events!

I think that yellow Golf is fantastic.
When it first appeared that is and that was a long time ago.
Fashions do change.
Hey you should have seen me in the seventies, afro hair ,flairs , platform shoes,groovy but we look back and laugh
Give the builder some respect, he would probably do it differently today.

As for our Tassie VW show (run by airheads) what a joke.
The solution is to break away from El Presidents little band of wackers and form our own club.
A Golf only club.

I don't need to win any trophies I'm proud of my creations and thats good enough for me.

Why is the Tassie show a joke? Because you didn't win? It's only what you make it. I loved TassieGTis car myself- thought it was pure horn, but all people have different opinions. All are equally valid....
Other non members won too.

Competitions......

Don't people just love to compete! Why not just enjoy your cars, enjoy looking at other people's cars and talking to them about them, and respect others' individuality and tastes. Let's make our forum a "no-putdown" zone

How about instead of whinging about the yellow Golf, you just improve your cars to beat it? The yellow Golf is not to my taste either but it has won a lot of shows by many different clubs of which he is not a member. VW shows in Australia have improved the cars. Before we had shows all we had were magazines to look at.

How about some good Golfs enter the Nationals and beat the yellow peril?

I have not seen too many show winning Golfs for a few years now.

i am losing faith in you syncro losing faith quikly

this is the last i will say

i built my car from scratch for me there is not one thing more i would or could do to it to improve it, that car is the car of my dreams, it is just a little frustrating when you think to yourself that judges must be looking for more. but i cant give them anymore, its done there is nothing left nothing more to make the car better it is at is best(in my opinion). when you look at the current world scene of the watercooled vw uk germany and even the states you are obviously aware that we as vw owner dont need big signs and flashing lights over the top of our cars ,they are built more suttully now, less is more.

so yes maybe i should get over it and i have a long time ago,( the first year it won that is)

by the way look out for a full feature in the coming months on thegolf+ magazine

worldwide baby

sorry to carry on

Attention to detail is the key. You need to know what they are looking for.
Taste doesn't come into it. Just don't say that the judging is fixed.

Dubstarmk2 I do not know your car but I know what they look for. Are you going to the Nationals this year? If you want I'll look at your Golf and may be able to show you where you are losing points.

If anyone wants to know more about the judging, give Steve Carter from Club Vee Dub a call.

I wouldn't bother its too much of a joke

You are kidding I'm sure the response the yellow golf has received on this forum says it all! Open it up to the people and dubstar would win hands down! Attention to detail.....what a load of rubbish! I'm interested...so tell us what detail they are they looking for syncro?

I am sure dubstar is more than proud of his wonderful creation and does not require a trophy to prove it! Personally, I wouldn't support the show! Park it out in the carpark dubstar and it will draw a bigger crowd than the yellow peril

[Golfwise]

Thats it guys there is nothing like a good discussion.
Thats why we 're in a great country.
Freedom of expression.
But don't foget to keep it nice :roll:

Maybe show judging needs to look outside the square.

Don't do that star We are too few and need to stick together through thick and thin

Now now delux! As you said...we all have different opinions! Personally, I hate our local show because I am just not a fan of all the old aircooled crap floating around! It does nothing for me! Aircooled nuts are a different breed! Hence, this forum is great! A watercooled or Golf Club would be a great idea in Tassie and is basically happening now anyway

Modifying a car for me is done for personal satisfaction and enjoyment! My car is basically a daily driver and built for use not showing! Entering and winning a show is not even a consideration! You may have won....but where was the competition?? There are not enough people in Hobart willing to spend crazy money on a project car!

Attitudes like that we don't need.

There are a lot more Golfs around that I would prefer to own than Ron's, but his is a very good show car and is prepared well.

I'm sick of wankers saying that he gets special treatment because he belongs to one of the clubs that runs one show. Understand!

This is not an opinion, it is a fact!
