[GTO NOT]

Drove to Pontiacs in Pigeon Forge with my 63 Lemans. Was one of only two in 61-63 Tempest modified class, 1st place trophy went to 63 Tempest modified 60 years ago, there was no second place trophy. My car was modified with modern LS3 crate motor, torque tube and transaxle from 2004 Corvette. Could be only Pontiac Y-body done like this. I think the judges ignored my car because it did not have traditional modifications. Seems like they are biased against the LS platform, only appreciate what they are familiar with. GTO NOT

I am curious on what the judging criteria is for Pigeon Forge for modified? Some shows have limits to the number of mods you can have, others do not. I am wondering if you know what Pigeon Forge's criteria was....
