You don't think I didn't see normal cars there too? I certainly did. The paddock also contained exotics not participating in the races too. Lime Rock Park is no different, the cars that were raced just weren't as special.
so why are those exotics not legit since they didnt participate
IT DOESNT f**king MATTER IF THEY PARTICIPATED!!! YOU KNEW THERE WERE GONNA BE f**king EXOTICS THERE, SO ITS NOT LEGIT!!! i rest my case
You COMPLETELY misinterpreted my post. I was saying this in the view of a person who has never gone to a race track before.

I know you aren't joking about the daily driver part. I'd have a photo to show you, but I didn't really care to take photos of a person's daily driver when I could be looking at all the other amazing cars. It doesn't matter if there were daily driver's there too. I went to a few local cruise ins over the summer. Many cars were muscle cars there, a couple exotics, and some turned up in their daily driver Camaros or beat up pieces of junk like the one seen there. That doesn't make those photos legal.

That's a show, and you would expect some cars like that to be there. Usually with cruise nights, it is just any interesting car.

Is a Chevy HHR interesting? Or a Ford F150? I've seen both of those turn up.
Look, the fact of the matter is that paddock spots are not legal and never will be. I'm not sure why you people have so much trouble with accepting this fact.

They aren't random spectators, they are clearly involved with the event somehow to get their cars into the paddock.

They aren't. They just have passes to park down there. This isn't Monterey.

I think I will let Brian's post answer that one.

That just looks like a show and it would just be impractical to tell apart shows from paddock spots. Same reason customer owned cars are not legal at dealerships. It just wouldn't be practical to determine whether or not each is legitimate.

How does one get said pass? I'll bet you it is for being involved with the event in some way, shape, or form.

With the dealerships, you can easily tell if the uploader uploads the car with a normal license plate on it. With the paddocks, you could just ask everybody who went there if they were participating, and they would all say no.

They have to pay $50.00 at the gate to park down there.

What if the car has no front license plate, and they upload a photo of the front? Or it's California where they don't need a plate for three months after buying the car or something?
If there is no one else who went, who is one going to ask? Seriously, why are you two fighting so hard about this? It's useless, as very few people besides you think they are spots. I don't care what other cars were there. I don't care if there were some daily drivers. They never have been legal, they aren't legal now, and they never will be legal. You've been given plenty of good reasons as to why they aren't spots (publicly, and apparently privately, it would seem), so just drop the subject and accept the facts.
