Ok, so I'm 3 weeks away from the Iowa Regional. Here's what I've done so far, I'm wondering if anyone has any other helpful suggestions.
My goal is to get higher than a 97% in preparation for the Duntov award.
My goal is to get higher than a 97% in preparation for the Duntov award.
- Had the car Chapter Flight Judged twice to create my "punch list"
- Scored 96.8% first time out, 97.2% second time out
- Spent the last few months eliminating things off that list (took it from 70 plus items down to about a dozen really small things at this point)
- Have started the car for the season already multiple times and run through a COMPLETE Ops check 3 times so far. (planning on at least 3-4 more before the event, and then one FINAL one the DAY prior) It ran great (yes, even the headlight motors and windshield washers worked)
- Cleaned the car thoroughly
- Filled the gas tank
- Made sure that I have the fire extinguisher, NCRS decal and the battery cut off to maximize my points
- Judged all sections of the car myself and come up with a score
- Compiled my documentation to help defend any questionable points on the car
- Compiled a list of things to bring along to the event (e.g. chairs, hat, judging guide, AIM, etc, etc, etc)
