Re: Let's try again; Facts and "The airline terminal" - Concours d'Elegance



I feel compelled to respond to "fatboy". I HAVE competed in 2 Concours 
while my car has actually been in 3 (1 was by a previous owner). I won 
1st place in 98 and 2nd in 2000 (in the first entry in Williamsburg by 
the previous owner the car didn't place.) By having PARTICIPATED!I 
feel I have some credibility and knowledge at least as it pertains to 
Deloreans but I have also participated in concours events for Jaguars 
having owned 3 XKE's and competed in their concours. In the two 
concours I was in with my Delorean I competed against 5 other cars 
each time. While it is true not all 6 of the cars may have been worthy 
of winning 1st place, at least the top 3 were very close. If you have 
EVER participated in a concours then you would be aware that the 
competion can be fierce. 
You raise some good points but to post anonomously and not bring up 
any positive comments reduces your credibility and only sounds sour. 
Memory isn't serving you well as there were 6 cars entered in the 
concours in Cleavland and if you are asking everyone to post their 
name ane vin then at least return the courtesy! You are right that 
winning a concours doesn't automatically give anyone the right to set 
the rules but as any owner I should have the right to voice my 
opinion about them! Do YOUR research and see for yourself who entered 
and who won the different concours events, this is part of the 
preperation for a concours so you know who you are competing against! 
When you do you will know who won in Cleavland and who won 1st place 
in Cincinnatti in 98.
