New Classification and Rules
Updates
A car entered in to the
"Daily Driver" Classification will exhibit the wear and tear
associated with this type of vehicle. The vehicle mileage should be in the
area of 10,000 miles per year of existence of the vehicle. In other words, a
1984 should have approximately 180,000 miles on it's odometer. The mileage is
not the only governing criteria in the decision. Judges at the event may make
special allowances for vehicles that are not deemed "Custom" in the
general rules and regulations.
1) A five minute warning
will be given before judging starts.
2) All cleaning, polishing
and detailing must stop when the judging begins.
3) Any participant
detailing their car after judging has started may be disqualified.
4) Judges may speak with
participants, spectators and other judges.
5) Judges may request that
people step away from their vehicle for judging.
6) No late entrants will
be allowed after the 5 minute warning.
7) Floor mats and seat
covers must be removed prior to judging.
1) Judging will be done by
a team of 5 judges and one supervising judge.
2) Judges will be assigned
one area of the car to judge and will judge only that area.
3) Areas to be judged
include: exterior, front compartment, engine, trunk, interior, wheels and
exhaust tips.
4) The team will judge all
registered cars. No judge shall have a car entered in the competition.
5) The five judges and
supervisor will meet and discuss their assignments. They will practice by
reviewing and discussing the judging of several display only cars to gain
continuity and experience.
Each judge will be
responsible for:
1) Their assigned area on
each car in the show.
2) Placing a point value
for each valued item in their area.
The supervising judge will
be responsible for:
1) Reviewing any large
downgrades.
2) Signing off on each
sheet for each car.
3) Tallying the total
points.
4) Keeping the team moving
rapidly and focused.
5) Regulating the
direction of judging and breaks.
One judging sheet per car
will be issued by the Supervising Judge. After each judge places their point
value on the sheet, they will hand that sheet to the Supervising Judge for
initials. Any questions of appearance of inconsistency should be dealt with
at this time by the entire judging team.
After all cars have been
judged and the sheets completed, the car with the highest total points will
be deemed "Best of Show."
This list is not
comprehensive. If a change on your car is not listed, the classification
crew will make a group decision at the show Saturday Morning. If you wish to
change your classification, the classification crew will consider your
request on Saturday morning before judging begins.
