Ed is right on with his comments.

I have been an NCRS judge for 2 years now, and a member for 15 years. It is a very worthwhile and informative organization, and plays a huge part in the history and future of Corvette.

I have had 3 Corvettes flight judged over the last 15 years, a 66, a 63 SWC, and currently a 67 BB. I have had a 93 40th annv. ZR1, and a yellow 94 zr1. I regret selling them both, thats why I just purchased a 94 Torch zr1.

I would highly encourage zr1 owners to consider participating in the NCRS. We need new people coming in with knowledge and desire to grow the C4 segment (especially zr1,s) of NCRS.

NCRS is not for everyone. But it is an organization with a lot of good, friendly people that put in a lot of time to this hobby. Don't be scared away by stories of some "super anal" individuals that want to criticize your car like its a piece of crap. There are some of these people in NCRS judging, but fortunately they are the extreme minority.

Ed, good luck on your Duntov award journey. That is certainly a very respected and difficult level to obtain. I only made it to regional top flights on my cars. Unfortunately, with midyears, to go to national level TF requires serious coin for rare items.
