Classes & Divisions
All show vehicles are judged within one of three division levels based on their level of modification. Select the division that best matches your build.
Street Division
Moderately modified vehicles using commercially available aftermarket and/or NOS parts for enhancement or restoration. All vehicles must retain factory body lines.
⚠ No replacement front or rear bumpersCustom Division
Highly modified vehicles that include full replacement body kits, fabricated parts or panels, plus one-off items and custom interiors or electronics.
Wild
Extreme body modifications, motor swaps, frame swaps, body swaps, and anything else that pushes the absolute limits of customization.
Judging Criteria
All judging is based on a 100-point system across five equal categories. The Judges Opinion category serves as the tiebreaker.
