Members who appreciate the fine design and excellent engineering of an automobile are invited to attend an MBCA Judging School offered in Los Altos. This school will provide you with the latest details about how we judge our Mercedes-Benz vehicles in an MBCA car show. Whether you are a judge who has already been trained and want a refresher course or are interested in becoming a judge for the first time, this course will prepare you to judge classic (show class) and contemporary (street class) Mercedes-Benz vehicles. We will have AMG experts to train anyone in judging AMG models.
A SPECIAL NOTE TO FIRST TIME JUDGES: We will coach you, support you, and assign you to work with experienced judges while you build your own skills. This will let you experience the joy of assessing the cleanliness, condition, and originality of fine Mercedes-Benz vehicles. It’s not all “technical” either, as we judge interiors and exteriors in addition to the engine and chassis. So, you can participate without being a “gearhead.” In other words, women and non-technical men are very much invited to join us. We also have fun as a team working together and we help other members learn what they can do to improve their own Mercedes-Benz automobile for the next car show.
There one big MBCA Concours d’Elegance coming up this summer: Legends of the Autobahn in Monterey (August 18, 2017). Trained judges are invited to judge at this show and any others where Mercedes-Benz is the featured marque and MBCA provides the judges. There will be special classes for AMG models this year.
At our judging school we first get information about judging (PowerPoint presentation and Judge’s Guide), then we practice judging, and finally we discuss the experience, ask questions, and fine-tune our understandings about being a judge. We fit snacks into that whole experience, too.
Please sign-up at MotorSportReg.com.
We start assembling at 9:30 a.m. to check-in; judging school starts promptly at 9:45 a.m.
