NEWS FROM THE CHIEF JUDGE

3/11/2016

Changes in Judging Rules – Now & 2017
By: William C. “Bill” Anderson, P.E.
 
The Cadillac & LaSalle Club Board of Directors approved a program in January 2015 authorizing significant changes in the judging of cars at CLC National Events. The Judging Committee is hard at work developing the procedures to implement these changes.
 
2016
The judging at the Grand National in Las Vegas in April and the Fall Festival in September embrace some of these changes including:


  • Cars entered in Touring are not excluded from a first place prize or forced to compete in the Primary Division if they score more than 92 points.
  • All judges’ scores are counted; no longer are the high and low judges’ results excluded when determining a car’s score.
  • Judges can collaborate with each other when judging cars.
  • Judges must attend a 2-hour seminar for training the day before cars are judged.
  • This is the last year for the Senior Division and the Senior Classes; in 2017 they will be included in the Primary Division.
 
2017
More changes will be phased in with the 2017 Grand National and Fall Festival Events including:


  • Cars up to 2007 can be entered in the Touring Class
  • Two different judging forms will be used in 2017 for Primary and Touring Divisions – one for cars in 1966 and before and different form for 1967 cars and after.
  • All cars that receive the required points for an award will receive that award regardless of the number of cars qualifying for a particular award.
  • Cars entered in the Primary Division can win a Senior, Senior Wreath or a Senior Crown award the first time they are shown if they achieve the points required – Senior Crown 99 to 100 points, Senior Wreath 97 to 98 points, and Senior 95 to 96 points. The medallions and adornments will continue, but there will be new trophies for these three Senior Awards. A special award will be awarded to Senior Crown cars that obtain 98 points or more when shown after achieving the Senior Crown prize..
  • A Specialty & Unique Division has been created for concept cars and special models, such as pickups and station wagons.
  • Modified cars will be judged in four classes – Hot Rods, Restomods, Mild Customs and Radical Customs – using procedures and judging forms specifically developed for them. First, Second, and Third prizes will be awarded in each class.
 
I will expand upon these and discuss other changes and topics related to judging in future News From the Chief Judge. If you have questions, please contact me.
