Recieved "Top Flight" today..... - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

ZONER 95 · 05-19-2012

Just got back from the Show......it was a great experience..I'd have to say the most stressful part was the operations section......thankfully everything worked as it should...

Was the only C-4 there.....the judges were all very impresed with the original condition of this car and had a hard time finding much wrong, other than the replaced windshield, the car had a few minor deductions, one and two points here and there......

The head judged hinted that he doubts the total deductions will end up being no more that 20 points overall.....will find out when all the scoring sheets are mailed in 2 weeks....factoring in the bonus points for extingusher, batt disconnect and NCRS sticker he mentioned could be a 99% score....and mentioned they would like to use the car for Judge Training in the future.

Thanks to those who offered their tips thru private messages and on this forum........and for anyone thinking about NCRS judging, ...go for it,... I learned a few new things today and all the judges were extremly helpful.

Now its time for a beer!!........

Congratulations! That process takes real dedication... Now go drive and enjoy your ZR1 and don't sweat the small stuff. I'm trying to overcome desire for car to remain a super low mile perfect museum piece... Car is at Reflective Images for concours detailing; won this at last year's Carlisle event and waited till I made everything on car as good as it could be before a cashing in on professional detailing... The car is now perfect, but only for now ☺��
