How are those who are part of the competition going to take it serious or the image of how it is being run if those who are helping "run" it are right in the middle of making it what they are trying their best not to have it become?

The bickering and downgrading of a nominated ride takes away from the whole process in general. You want to discuss the quality of the workmanship, post in their build thread or PM them. Don't clutter it with your opinions on the car, sure if you are leaving a comment on the one you voted for by all means tell others why you were drawn to that car and leave the negative thigns out.

It's one of those instances of , if you dont' have anythign good to say keep it to yourself.

I see exactly what youre saying. But in my opinion discussing worksmanship and DEFENDING a car being downgraded doesnt 'take away from the process' but i understand so
I guess we can agree to disagree..
