<VV> It must be national concours time -

[Corvair Underground]

Bill - Then you are saying that there have never been Corvairs entered 
into stock class at a Corsa convention?  I'm pretty sure that's not the 
case.

It has been explained to me that the classification for stock class is 
so strict because the fear is that one compromise leads to another and 
pretty soon you'll quit seeing "stock" cars at all.  I think that's a 
valid fear - but if it gets too strict you might have the same outcome.

Actually most of the conventions have stock class fairly well covered, 
which means the rules may be difficult but not impossible. A person may 
be irate because his car is bumped by the classification chairman 
because of a minor item - he may also be irate because he lost the Cole 
award by a 1/2 of a point - or best of show because he didn't polish his 
mirror base quite enough. Is there really a difference?

As long as concours is as anal and competitive as it is there is NO 
CHOICE but to adhere literally to the rules. Any other appraoch is 
asking for trouble.
