IMPORT XTREME SHOWDOWN
05.2003 Somerset, NJ
With the passion progressively fostering as summer
closely approaches, it was quite hard to resist the Import Xtreme Showdown. The
name alone was simply tempting, appealing, alluring and yet irresistible to let
pass. Nonetheless, the event transpired in Somerset, New Jersey on May 17th of
2003 and REVTECH RACING was in absolute attendance. The setting was rather
sufficient and weather conditions that day appeared to be fairly on a down side
with much rainfall. With much anticipation, the undersized crowd presented much
eagerness and expectancy for a good show.
On an optimistic note for RR, Byron Garcia succeeded to win 1st place in the
Mazda class with his MX-6. Furthermore, Paul Contangco managed to achieve 3rd
place in the Toyota class with his ever-so popular turbo Celica. Other
participants in the show included: Jamar Harris, Erik Dimayuga, Josh Nierman,
Cyril de la Cruz, Richard de la Cruz, and lastly Irene Cornelio.
By and large, REVTECH RACING appeared to be relatively displeased at the overall
assessment of Import Xtreme Showdown. Of the many reasons, the basis for this
dissatisfaction evolved essentially around Erik and Richard’s involvement within
the event. Erik’s vigorous, eye-catching, and Tuner M tuned Supra apparently
remained unrecognized throughout the show. Essentially, it is well worth noting
that Erik’s Supra should have, without a doubt, blown away any of the contendors
competing in the class. There is entirely no hesitation of this truth.
In addition, Richard’s Nissan 240SX was somewhat unexpectedely disregarded
throughout the show – even while in complete presence alongside his car. This
error clearly did not put the judges in a favorable view. Moreover and overall,
REVTECH RACING concedes that the Import Xtreme Showdown was inclusively
inefficient and simply unproductive. Be that as it may, the season is unfolding
and RR is definitely anticipating for greater miracle – so be sure to keep your
eyes open at upcoming events…and don’t forget to sneak a glance at the rest of
