You can find details on the Calendar of Events page for May 17 or HERE.
You have an additional week and a half to shine 'em up and bring them out!!
It killed us to postpone the show, but it looks like we made the correct call. Three registrants are unable to attend due to the date change, but hopefully we'll have some others step in to take their places.

Hey John in VA I was thinking of entering my 04 Z4. It's in pretty good condition. Is there a model year or age limit?
 
No limits, as long as it's a BMW! The Z4 will be classed in "Current models," unless you're a rookie and prefer to be in the Anfänger class (not judged - for newcomers to the concours experience, selected by people's choice balloting).
 
My car would never be considered clean enough to compete in something like this but I might come down in hopes of a people's choice award (long shot i know)
 
Chase,
Take care of whatever you think "would never be considered clean enough" and let the spectators decide. Everyone has to start somewhere, then try to improve.
 
We have a "lucky 13" cars registered this first week, and your pre-registration is appreciated. This makes it much easier to group the vehicles, rather than trying to do it on the day of the event. Keep up the good work!
 
John,

I was a good Bimmer guy this year and pre-registered. Even the old concours dogs can learn new tricks! See you on Sunday. Display only this year and will help judge if needed.

Best,

Hopefully the predicted showers will wash some of the pollen out, but the forecast is looking good for Sunday.
35 cars registered at this time!
 
Weather just showed a 40% chance of scattered showers. The show has been postponed once since 1991, so the good weather DOES turn up! It is a logistical nightmare to reschedule, so unless is rainfall is torrential plan to be there.
 
If it rains Saturday the event maybe a no-go for me. I was planning the detail most of the day.
 
I'll put this here, but plan to get it out to the registrants as well.

Deutsche Marque Concours Weather Update:

As you all may know, the forecast for the weekend is uncertain and there is a possibility of scattered showers. While we have a rain date available to us, May 17th, there is no guarantee that the weather will be clear on that day either, and there are considerable difficulties associated with moving the show. Accordingly, our intention is to have the show if practicable. We have also made arrangements with Fairfax County Park Authority to arrange our cars in the parking lot and grounds adjacent to Hunter House in the event that the field conditions are not hospitable for us on Sunday.

We are monitoring the forecast closely. If the forecast deteriorates substantially, or if conditions are materially worse Sunday morning than those previously forecast, representatives of the clubs hosting the show will speak early in the morning on Sunday and make a final decision on whether to hold the show. If the clubs decide NOT to hold the show, we will send another blast email and update our website [insert NCC hyperlink] no later than 7am Sunday morning.

So, unless you hear otherwise from the club, via our website and blast email, WE WILL HOLD THE SHOW THIS SUNDAY, MAY 3RD.

Thank you and we hope to see you all on Sunday.
 
Keep your fingers crossed for good weather! I will be there with 2 cars and wouldn't miss it. It's all about the PEOPLE anyway...

A lot of hard work goes into planning this event. I mean the coordinators have to work with PORSCHE and MERCEDES clubs, not the easiest people to convince of anything...... they actually think that THEY have the best German cars!

Come on out and bring your rain gear! A few rain drops will hide imperfections in freshly waxed paint!!
 
Willy! I'll be in South Riding tomorrow night to catch up with Allen. Can I leave my ///M car with you so you can detail it for me?

Just say "Yes" and have a bag of stuff you need dry cleaned and we'll call it a day. Stefen hepled me do my brakes and looks stellar!! Just a few more minor modifications and i'm done... I hope.

-young.
