Proposal #3 Consolidate Champion, Special and Driven Division Classes to Eliminate Excessive Number
1) Problem: JCNA has 42 classes; a ridiculous number considering the level of participation at local shows, leading to non-competitive classes and high expenses that clubs must recoup by having high entry fees
2) Purpose
a. Increase the competitiveness in the Champion Division
b. Increase the competitiveness in the Driven Division
c. Enhance the significance of local, regional and national awards
d. Reduce club expenditure for local awards thereby allowing a reduction in concours entry fees if a club so chooses
3) Driven and Champion Divisions to have identical classification scheme
a. Reduces confusion
b. if the divisions are integrated on the show field, placement of the cars is simplified (Class 3 is Class 3, no need to have different signs)
4) Proposed Classes are as follows:
a. D/C1 All classics (same as current D1)
b. D/C2 All E-types (same as combined current D2/3/4)
c. D/C3 All early small and large saloons (same as current D5)
d. D/C4 Early XJ6/12 (same as current D6)
e. D/C5 Late model XJ6/12 (same as current D7 plus D10 X308 only)
f. D/C6 All XJ-S (same as combined current D8A/8B)
g. D/C7 Late model XK (same as current D9A)
h. D/C8 Late model S-type (same as current D11)
i. D/C9 All current production (same as combined current D9B/12 plus D10 X350 only)
j. D/C10 All Specials (combined current S1/2/3/4)
k. D/C11 Preservation cars (combined current C19A/B)
