not neccessarily, mine was built pretty much all by myself, and hasnt cost me anywhere near that, if you willing to do the work yourself to save some money, there is no reason why you too couldnt be in the elite tent

Yeah Datto, It has a 202 and an auto or something with a few dings. But reading whats under the sig makes it seem like he has elite hall material if he had the body work immaculate

just got home for motorvation was pretty good. Sorry but i didnt get any pictures as the super smart girlfriend left the camera at home(one job). The elite tent was awesome im not a big fan of mini trucks but damn that hollywood ute is very impressive. Once again 2WILD4U was looking great wish i could have stayed to see the elite supercruise. Did anyone get pictures?

Just home ourselves and what a great day.
I have 200+ photos on my camera and plenty of videos on the other camera.
Sadly the videos will have to wait til I get back to work since I forgot to grab the cable :(

2WILD4U I got a few videos of you on the cruise, driving events and that burnout at the end.

We spent the whole day there yesterday was a awesome day!

Was a good skid that last one Nathan! was waiting for ya to go hard

Is the owner of the mint Silver LJ a member here? Love that things engine bay...

Question... How does Elite work.. ie how are you chosen.... does everyone get there friday night and the judges look over EVERY car and they choose who goes in? or is it decided beforehand on the pics you send in? and if so do they actually come inspect your car before putting you in. Or is it just a matter of knowing the right people?

You nominate for elite on your entry

Sometimes you get invited
The racecar was invited one year... but only because they didn't have enough cars in the tent and they wanted some competition cars involved

well just got back from motorvation, not happy, some low life scum stole the face off my stereo and stole a lasercut steel torana cutout i had just bought, which means they had to jump the chains i had around the car, so much for the security

Sorry to hear that Nathan. Surely you would think someone saw someone walking around with the Torana cut out since they aren't exactly small or even in the car!
