Well listers, we secured our hotel for Triumphest/VTR (better hurry,rooms are going fast), but are wondering about the rules for the VTR Concours. We haven't filled out the form yet because of a few items in question
We thought we would try this venue since it would be the first time we would be able to attend. We have what we think is a fairly decent car for this year, that should do fair (at least we think), but would we be dinged for the 165/70 tires (instead of 155s) on chrome spoke (vs. painted) rims, Chrome plated air cleaner, Lecarra steering wheel, alloy valve cover, or overdrive on a car that originally didnt have one? Some of these items could be changed relatively easily but others (like the overdrive or wheels) would be expensive and require a lot of work Something I'm not really willing to do for only one judging event - So how heavy handed are the rules?? Would this be considered a modified?? Certainly many (if not all) of these things were considered period aftermarket items are those OK? Anyway, we are looking forward to the event, but we were really QUITE disappointed that we couldnt book only three days at the Embassy Hotel. If you wanted four that was available, but we are not able to take that much time off three was stretching it(not to mention the expense)! Not pointing fingers, or trying to start a flame war or anything, but I think that a lot of folks will be in the same situation, and its a shame that they wont be able to stay at the hotel the event is at simply because the hotel requires a four night stay! In the twenty or more years that I have been attending Triumphest, I have never had a problem securing rooms for two or three nights, and we have NEVER reserved rooms this early. But apparently, this time was different! So well be staying at the overflow Best Western, which by the way is a bit cheaper oh well, at any rate, hope to see a lot of you there!
