A few words on Judging and Classes:
There are two ways to enter your car in this event, either as a member of a Special Interest Group or in our Open Class.
Special Interest Groups (2002’s, Coupes, M’s etc) will be judged in two classes, Concours Original or Concours Modified. Each will be judged on a 100 point system using SCCA type judging criteria. We may add additional Special Interest Groups as necessary.

Super Clean Class
