Difficult |
| The 77 was a difficult car to judge. With 92 k miles on the odometer it is a car which is really used, so much more difficult to judge than the almost "new" pace car. |

Time for a Dutch Treat |
| During lunch we enjoyed the typical Dutch snacks of some fries and krokets. |
|
|
Second round |
| After the lunch the teams were swapped. The ones who judged the car of Oliver before lunch now continued with the car of Stef. It was concluded that judging the Pace Car was relatively "easy" since the car is nearly in factory condition. As of it was removed straight from a time capsule. |
|
|
Johan and Eric were spending a lot of time on the floor.... |
|
|
PV time |
| When judging the interior, exterior, mechanical and chassis sections was done it was time for the nerve wrecking PV session. Both cars only failed on their alarms systems. |
|
|
It's Olivers turn |
|
|
ORANGEEEEEE |
| The orange color was well represented that day. Oliver did you expect some extra bonus points by painting your car orange for this occasion.......????? |
|
|
And then it was Stef's turn |
|
|
2nd Flight |
| After a nerve wrecking but joyfull day Oliver took home a 2nd Flight result! |
