GEAR UP AT THE
In past years at LSMF, we prioritized allowing owners to park with friends, clubs, and crews. While that created a great community atmosphere, it came at the expense of a more competitive, higher quality car show.
This year, we're raising the standard. To ensure a more efficient, fair, and focused judging process, we’re implementing the following changes:
The show will be limited to 100 vehicles.
All show vehicles will be parked by class.
Place awards will be based on number of competitors in the class.
For this show we consider Classic MOPAR anything Pre-1979.
A panel of judges will evaulate each car in the class.
The average score of those judges will be the vehicle's final score and will determine placement within the class.
We believe this method reduces bias from any one judge, encourages thorough, well-rounded evaluations, and creates a more transparent and balanced results process.
A recusal policy will be in place for judges with any conflicts of interest.
We believe this system helps us deliver a show that’s not just fun, but judged with integrity and respect, while honoring the passion and pride of every builder who enters.

Before you grab an entry, ask yourself:
Would I feel confident parking next to the best in my class?
Have I invested time, thought, and intention into my build, not just parts, but overall execution?
If asked by a judge, could I explain my build philosophy in a concise way?
