Modded cars for DOVW

[ssman]

How many pre 2000 and how many post 2000 modified watercooled cars are comming to DOVW 2010?

[Jarred]

My non standard pre 2000 VW will be there

[Spyda]

My mk1 will be there, its not standard.

The reason I ask is i got an e-mail as probably many, others but no class for pog or modified vw so I emailed John Farlow with Volkswagen Club of Victoria and said that it would be unfair for me to compete with the standards since my car is not standard so they are going to make two extra classes as mentioned above (pre 2000 modified and post 2000 modified watercooled), but he did say I hope that you are not the only modified car there and we made this class for you.

I emailed him back saying that I would check if there was other intrest out there and if not I would only like to display my car not show it. that way they dont have to buy prizes for one car.

I think this is outside the golfs, mk1 thru, as they have classes for standard and modified.

So any intrest for modified others post up.

there was this problem last time, see i dont count mine as modified as its basically wheels, suspension, cd player (although there is a lot of less obvious stuff going on).
but count me on your list as modified if you want, to get a class open, as it is unfair on yourself and a lot of other cars.
im a 2001 for your reference

pretty sure we will be going but not sure what car we would take. If we take the convertible it is prob considered modified... wheels, suspension, exhaust, lights etc... its a 2003.

can you enter on the day or are they only doing registration before the event to try and speed up entry?

[Peter Jones]

The whole modified thing is a joke.

Last year I entered a MK1 as modified because it has a later model engine. I was being judged against a 5 day old MK5 with a chip tune.

Both cars were judged on condition of paint, interior etc, which do you suppose got the more points?

My recommendation is to consider the entry fee as your ticket to convenient parking close to the show and don't worry about the trophies.

I agree, last year all the watercooled's were together, at least this year there are golf classes, you should see that on the entry that has been e-mailed to last year entries. Cheers ssman
