Re: [DML] Re: NCT's in Concours

[Marc A Levy <malevy@xxxx>]

The point has been made, and I agree, that even if a good LOOKING set of 20 year
old tires are found, that in no way indicates that they are safe.

Frankly, I dont know why anyone would risk safety (or even reliability) for a
trophy. Furthermore (as I have said before), I can't understand why any
DeLorean "authority" would encourage such a practice. Points should be DEDUCTED
for 20 year old tires, along with any other original unsafe items.

Ya, I know the arguments about how other "concourse" events are run, but that
does not make it correct.
