Re: New Upcoming Exterior Paint Judging Changes

Kevin,
I announced the change in my Restorer column a year ago. The paint change has been the topic in my judging school at every regional meet since last year's convention. It will be included in the Paint & Fiberglass class at the upcoming Judges Training Retreat in Dallas. I will continue to present it at the regional meets this spring; it will be part of the Paint School at this year's national convention. The new charts will be available after this year's national convention. The new judging process will be in effect immediately after the 2016 convention.

Come on guys were talking about a 14 point deduction at 30%, versus a 23 point at 50%, versus a 30 point at 70%. This obviously will solve all the issues. I mean you fluctuate from .3% of the total score with the 30% deduction to .7% of the total score with the 70% deduction.

neither is 1% of the total score so if the car was correct in every other way the difference is 99.3 versus 99.7.

I submit you cant see the forest for the trees, incidentally that the forest no longer looks like an original as built at the factory production corvette.

I have to agree Roy, but speaking for myself, it is more the frustrations with inconsistent judging of the paint than the points.
