DEEP SOUTH NATIONALS / SCRAPIN THE COAST

Deep South Nationals - 2009

Deep South Nationals is a Top 25 Sound Quality Money Round. It will be held in conjunction with Scrapin the Coast in Biloxi, MS at the Gulf Coast Coliseum on June 20th  – 21st  2009.

Several manufactures have already pledged support of the Prize Pot that will go directly to the winners of the Top 25 Round. There will be at least $1000 dollars at stake and I will make updates as more money comes in. Last Year I gave away $4000!!! Also, the winners will receive stunning awards. The 1st place trophy is a 4’ custom painted surfboard. The awards for 2nd – 10th will be custom built metal and plexiglass sculptures, and 11th - 25th place will be 13”x10” full color plaques.

Deep South Nationals Rules:

Because of the overwhelming interest in Deep South Nationals Top 25 Money Round, we anticipate there will be well over 25 cars vying for a chance to compete in Deep South Nationals (DSN). 

This year we will take Pre-Registration starting April 20th and the packets including Judging CD’s will be sent starting May 15th. The only requirement for registration will be entering either the Usaci SQ event OR the Scrapin’ the Coast car show. The cost of registration will be $85 for pre-registration and $100 for on site.

Deep South Nationals will have a designated parking area under tents on the beach front parking lot at Treasure Bay Casino. Every competitor will be assigned a space at check-in on Saturday night.

DSN check-in on Saturday the 21st  will began at 5 P.M. and end at 6 P.M.  There will be NO exceptions. Judging will began promptly at 6 PM.

DSN will have six top-notch judges. 3 pair’s of judges (6 score sheets) will evaluate every car from the Driver & Passenger Seat (2 Seat Judging) and will score the car to the best of their ability. Every competitor’s score sheet will be totaled, and the low score will be removed from their final score.

DSN’s judges will use a custom disk made for the event with tracks selected by several judges, competitors, and myself. Steve Head has been nice enough to record the CD’s on a very high quality disk. Each judge will also choose one track from their personal disks (commercially available, no CD-R’s) to evaluate each car. This will allow the best cars to rise to the top by being adaptive to all types of music.

There will be power provided in the DSN parking area. Competitors will be allowed to use power supply’s during judging, but are responsible to bring extension cords, battery chargers, and duck tape to secure wires to the ground.

Window coverings other than tint will not be allowed on the windshield or the front side windows.

Deep South Nationals is not responsible for equipment or vehicle malfunctions; this is the competitor’s responsibility. If there is a problem, 5 minutes will be allowed to make repairs.  After 5 minutes, the vehicle must be judged or given a score of zero by that judge.  Repeated repairs will not be allowed. Absolutely no refunds will be given. 

DSN will have one of the best judging staffs assembled in many years. All judging decisions are finals…NO exceptions. There is no appeals process; again, all decisions are FINAL.

Rules are subject to change without notification until Monday, June 12th 2009. At that time event rules will be locked in place
