Hawaii Lowriders Car Meet

 This is a late post from last month's Hawaii Lowriders Meet at Pearlridge Shopping Center. Life right now is just so hectic that I can't keep up with things I need to do. As you may or may not know I haven't bee up to date with this blog. Every now and then I touch up on it but not on regular enough. My apologies but I promise to provide content when ever I can. 

This car meet is blessing for me as I also haven't been in the mix with my beloved car culture meet and greets or cruises. I think im going to frequent many of these from now on as I usually have done in the past. I was really active in the car scene back then but like everyone else, adulthood kicks us in the head and occupies our time. I hope that I can keep up this time. So wish me luck and I hope to see you all in the coming events and "ride safe"

For now enjoy these pics of last month's meet.

Big mahalos to all in attendance:

Timeless Classics Car Club, Supremacy Car Club, Childhood Dreams Car Club, USO Car Club, Lowriders Pride Car Club, Unity Car Club, Spellbound Car Club, Old Image Car Club, Others Car Club, OSIxHI, and solo riders.

My apologies in advance if I missed any clubs.

Until next time... Ride Safe.

Body Comp - March 14, 2009

There will be a $2.oo entry fee and free to all keikis under 12 years of age. All entry fee is handled at the door and it is in no way assessed by hawaiiscalemodels.com. There is also a $5.00 fee to enter statics with no limitations on entries. The Body Comp will be in the Team Saiko and hawaiiscalemodels.com booths and therefore display models for Team Saiko and hsm.com's unlimited entry paid for by the booth vendors (Saiko & hsm.com).

My main mission for this comp is to showcase and promote 1/10 R/C Drifting and VIP bodies to the static world. Also show the world the R/C Drifting community at its best and in full force. There will be a lot of activities and beautiful statics on display as well as for sale section on statics.

Half of one table for hsm.com will be reserved for all the different types of scale model categories to be showcased. The rest of the space will be for the comp and Team Saiko was generous enough to offer their tables for overflow entries.

Here are the rules for the Body Comp:

Must be an RC rolling chassis. statics and/or homemade chassis are welcomed but precedence will go to the rolling chassis at judging due to the difficulty of execution on a rolling chassis. If the static chassis are greatly executed or is just "the wow factor" then that will be in consideration. Drift cars (street, D1GP, or FD) only and VIP specific only with considerations for kei car & domestics(non DUB style). Attention to true specifics and detail is key to the judging of a VIP. Trust me, the judges knows if the vehicle qualifies in its specific categories...

A 1 - 10 scoring will be utilized with 1 being the worst and 10 being the best. Any ties will be determined by the entry that embodies all 4 criteria the closest.

It will be judge by these 4 criterias as follows:

1. Paint & Application (neatness & execution of decal application - multi-paint, neatness, originality)

2. Exterior mods(made parts takes precedence, originality, realisticallity, neatness, & execution)

3. Interior mods(made parts takes precedence, originality, realisticallity, neatness, & execution)

4. Display & use of materials (realisticallity, wow factor, originality, cleverness, execution)
