General Discussion / Re: NEW DISCUSSION GROUP (FORUM)? - Classes and Judging Guidelines
« on: April 05, 2017, 01:35:14 AM »
OK, took some time to think about it. My words here are mine only.
The CRG long-term goal is to be able to describe the production configuration of every major first-generation Camaro model and option, including mid-year changes.
BUT - I DON'T think it is up to the CRG to tell people how to get more points at a judged event.
Personally, I enjoy either non-restored or nice driver quality cars. I don't THINK (but never say never) I will ever own "points car" or a "trailer queen". Now I am NOT using those terms in a negative way, just using them to specify what cars I am talking about. I have no negative thoughts about you or your car if that is the route you choose to take.
My father and I take our Camaros to a few shows, the cars are driven there and back. And my son now has a 67 Camaro that we are going to restore in the next few years. But it will be a driver, with some mods - not a true 100 percent perfect off the showroom floor type restoration. The cost of some NOS parts or very nice originals has gotten WAY out of hand in my opinion - and that has taken a lot of the fun out of it for some people.
Again, for those that choose to have their cars judged, I have no negative thoughts. It is just not for me.
