ToyoChamp
ToyoChamp is not longer a 'points only' award.
It is now based on the entrant and the car.
Entrant and car? Yes; we will be watching to find the person with the best attitude and best car over the weekend. All aspects of the car, that cant be put into numbers, will be taken into account.
Entrant and car? Yes; we will be watching to find the person with the best attitude and best car over the weekend. All aspects of the car, that cant be put into numbers, will be taken into account.
Entering all the events will be noted, attitude will be noted, the car, engine and interior will be very well noted.
Classics restored, Drift cars with agressive style or entusiast cars with massive power will all be awarded for thier efforts. But the question remains;
Who will be ToyoChamp 2010?!

Awards confirmed!
Awards are confirmed
As many people would be aware, we were seeking a change with the awards and judging.
We've tried to allow for the range of cars we'd like to encourage to the show:
The show car: This is the full display car with border, cloth underneth, mirrors, theme etc. These are the best show Toyotas in the state and we want to see them and show them off. These cars will be expected to be extremely clean and well presented.
The show car: This is the full display car with border, cloth underneth, mirrors, theme etc. These are the best show Toyotas in the state and we want to see them and show them off. These cars will be expected to be extremely clean and well presented.
The classic: The restoration or very well kept vehicle. Older cars are harder to keep clean and normally require a lot more work, we'd like to acknowledge those guys that have spent the time and effort to bring those cars back to former glory. Classics will be awarded extra points for story boards and evidence of work done as well as overall age. Classics is open to 25+ year old cars.
The Enthusiast: Most likely the busiest category; this category will encompass the daily driven cars, the rally, race and drift beast, and the general enthusiast car - special, rare and/or modified. Enthusiast cars will not be judged so much on the cleanliness but more on the modifications, presentation and overall credibility of the vehicle. Race, Rally and drift cars will score points for extra race gear (roll cage, racing seats, aero modifications, engine upgrades, etc.) while the every day cars will not be judged (at all) for the engine bay, or underside cleanliness.
ToyoChamp has also been modified. In previous years it's been required for a ToyoChamp to complete all events to be eligable, this year it will be a decision by ToyoShow officials and not based on judging or requirements. It will be a hand picked car and driver that has been most in the spirit of the weekend; this will include participation in as many events as possible (given that a drift car is not likely to be in the cruise for example, or a 4x4 in the dyno competition), the driver will have displayed good attitude through out the weekend and the car will be displayed in a very good manor at the show and shine - extra items, vehicle display, club theme (if with a club) etc.

Thanks to everyone who participated in this year's ToyoShow. Thanks to our sponsors, without you it wouldnt happen, we appreciate the support and Thanks to those that helped with the show.
It was a great weekend and weather *just* held off for us.
