RE: [DML] Concours Judging For Options & Accessories

["Montgomery, Ken" <kenm@xxxxxxxx>]

   This issue is being dealt with. We're not totally sure on how we'll
handle the accessories but I can assure you the Concours will center on
and be totally about the car itself.

I've also been given lots of feedback about 'updates', but you have to
draw the line somewhere.  The idea behind Concours is to have a car that
would reflect the perfectly built car rolling out of the factory for
that day.

Knut Grimsrud is the leader on updates to the Judging Handbook. If you
have areas of concern, please email him directly
[knut.s.grimsrud((AT)))intel.com]. We are on a very short timeline to
get the updates completed so let him know soon.

For anyone out there with a car that they think could compete, I
encourage you to sign up. You'll learn a lot about your car, even if you
don't take one of the top prizes.

And... I'm looking for several assistants. This will speed the judging
and train new people to be future judges.
