With possibly over 300 vehicles at the rally, it will help the judging arrangements considerably if you choose to be judged only if your vehicle is fully restored and presented accordingly on the day. Whilst you can change your mind and choose NOT to be judged on the day, it will NOT be possible to opt for judging on the day if you have already decided not to be judged as the judges' lists will be drawn up from these forms.
