[RMC List] - Concours d'Elegance June 9th in Littleton - Info On Our Participation and a Call For Volunteers

Fri Apr 26 21:59:17 EDT 2019

Gang:

Regarding the judging….please don’t be scared away. CORSA rules are based upon the cleanliness of the vehicle…not originality etc.

At the Tri-State, that will be the basic message. What will be discussed are the things (and vehicle areas) that CORSA judges typically focus upon. Even race cars participate in the National events. Crown conversions too. Unrestored stock too. The goal is to highlight Corvairs and be proud of them.

The two (2) clubs have at least a dozen vehicles that would meet CORSA standards for entry into the CORSA Concours. That is the standard we have been asked to meet for Arapahoe.

If you can’t get to Tri-State, please let me know. 

This is a great opportunity to show off these vehicles!

You'll get in to the event for free, and I believe lunch is provided.  So, a win-win for both you, and the worthy charity this event is raising funds for.

So, with only the best of the best Corvairs on display, we'll make the rest of those brands look good :)

While we know these are wonderful automobiles, with revolutionary engineering, many in the public, and the media, continue to share misinformation about the vehicle and this is an opportunity to educate and set folks straight.  "SeeMore", the cut-away Corvair will be on site, and will draw hundreds of folks to our display area.  I doubt if the Ferrari or Porsche clubs will be bringing a cut-away car, just sayin' :)

Our very own member Ken Schifftner will be doing the pre-judging out in Alamosa, and will also participate in the formal judging of the cars at ACC.  Ken has a long history with CORSA as a recurring concourse judge four our national convention event, so we will be represented well.
