The thrill is when you beat these folks at their own game, doing it all yourself. Rainbonnet '93...an Oregon Region event. My old driver got 293 points, 1st in class, and was voted people's choice.
As a friend said later; "Paul, you angered all the right people." 
That was my final serious concours...decided to quit while I was ahead.
