NCRS Judging Records

Re: NCRS Judging Records

[QUOTE=Dave Perry (19643);813281]I don't think the Judging "Standard" has changed much, if at all. (I'd be curious to know when the Judging Standard in use today was first written).

Dave, I'm not sure a semantics lesson was appropriate in this particular discussion with a new member, but, if we're correcting each other, I wrote "standards", not "standard".

So, let's be clear: one definition of "standard", (I used its plural), is: "an idea or thing used as a measure, norm, or model in comparative evaluations". The number of "things" actually physically described the 1988 judging manual, with the intent that they be used as models in comparative evaluation (i.e.: judging), is significantly different than the number of things listed in subsequent judging manuals. Period.

Jeeez. After the "sticker" thread and semantics lessons in this one, I'm just about done posting here... This forum used to be an exception from the troll-filled discussions all over the internet.

Re: NCRS Judging Records

Thanks Mike, maybe I'm being a bit oversensitive...

Ron, I hope this little diversion from the norm didn't dampen your first days as a member. Sometimes the internet posts can get a little impersonal, but the guys here are usually very nice and extremely helpful. Good luck with your car and if I can be of any assistance in interpreting its current status, certainly don't hesitate to ask here or in a PM

I'm privileged to have a group like this to talk with.
I'm still trying to understand how I have documents with an overall of 95 yet no First Flite certificate.
Any way to research the records by VIN perhaps?

Ron

Yes, go here: https://www.ncrs.org/services/histor...nt-service.php

And order the Award Confirmation Service record of your car's judging.

thank you so very very much sir!!!

Given the age of the certificate, it's FAR cheaper to just have the car rejudged than to pay $300 and find out it was judged in 1990. I'll stand by what I said before, that the papers are essentially useless in 2017.

It's your car now - get the latest Judging Guide, download current judging sheets, and inspect the car.
Bring it to a Chapter meet and see what happens.

It was certainly presented to the owner at the time. Must have been misplaced in the intervening years.

The confirmation service will not provide you with a new one, just confirm the date, place and level of past awards. Please understand that the awards are essentially as-is, where-is and apply while the car is sitting on the judging field on that day.

Many things can change in 24 hours never mind almost 3 decades.

Re: NCRS Judging Records

Mike makes a good point. In order to achieve the score your car got back then, there were an awful lot of original parts present on the car at judging. Some of the rarest of those parts sometimes have a way of being replaced over the years. Not saying that's the case with yours, only that there's no guarantees that your car still has them...Twenty-seven years is a long time; a lot can happen.
Any that are gone, for whatever reason, will likely change the score.
