Marc, that is while you are SHOWING your car! There are STANDARDS for any car when you are SHOWING it! It has nothing to do with arrogance. When you show a Mustang it needs to meet MCA standards. When you show a D in a Concours event it needs to meet Concours standards. That has nothing to do with arrogance either. What I was talking about was a general smart-alecky attitiude that pervades many posts in the D forums when it comes to vendors, tech advice, responding to others, etc. It had ZERO to do with showing cars. Thanks for your response.
