Hi Gang, The problem with the concours rules (as I understand them) is the bonus "dealer option" points are weighted equal to everything else. Under the rules as they stand you could.....take a hammer to every stainless panel on your car - lose the maximum 6 allotted points for stainless finish and make them up completely with dealer options, theoretically winning a concours with a car in that condition. There needs to be a revision made. mike VIN#17089 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dick Ryan" <deloreanbiker@xxxxxxxxx> To: <dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, April 05, 2004 10:48 AM Subject: Re: [DML] Concours Judging For Options & Accessories > Though I am not a contender for any concours judging, > I firmly believe that "dealer options" are just that - > options!
