Why are you an asshole for entering a bone stock COPO into an unmodified class of car show? It will likely win because of the ultra rare aspect of it, but that's not the car or car owners fault that they brought an ultra rare car that likely was trailered into a car show. The same would be true if someone brought a 1969 ZL-1 Camaro to a car show. It would likely win, but if it was bone stock it would be eligible for the unmodified class.
Likewise, if a COPO was entered into a race class as unmodified, it could compete against a Demon, Drag Pack, or Cobra Jet and have some competition, otherwise it would likely win the class. If a 1969 ZL-1 entered into an unmodified class, it would likely win against cars of the same era, and in many chances, some modern day vehicles. Just because it is special and/or rare doesn't mean it should be excluded from it's class because it is special and/or rare.
