IF YOU DON'T WANT TO SIT AROUND WAITING FOR A JUDGE TO COME BY, WE ASK YOU TO GO TO THE DJ BOOTH AND ASK THE MC TO CALL FOR A JUDGE TO MEET WITH YOU.
WE DO THIS BECAUSE MANY PARTICIPANTS LIKE TO LEAVE EVERYTHING CLOSED FOR PHOTOS AND VIDEOS.

THE LOOK AT ALL THE PARTS ADDED TO THE BUILD DOWN TO THE QUALITY OF THE PARTS USED. THEY ALSO LOOK FOR DAMAGES AND IMPROPER ALIGNMENT OF BODY PANELS.
