Indeed we are. And concours rules state that any chips, bugs, well,
anything that occurs after leaving home is to be overlooked so in effect
driving
the car in VTR driving events, even driving to the event should have no
effect on the concours score.
The purpose of these rules is to encourage folks to drive them. And some
folks do and still score very high in concours.
But anal retentiveness is anal retentiveness.
