DELEGATES VOTED  UNANIMOUSLY TO ACCEPT THE SLATE: 

g)  Membership Committee Report- Doug Ingram
	Doug reviewed his report, stating the  BOD offers assistance&  suggestions, 
but key to membership is in the affiliate clubs. Mutual interest in Marque, binds us in our  friendships made.

He stated he was surprised to learn that some clubs don’t have(send)  renewal notices. Saw we will be family or fractured. Clubs need to provide activities members want vs. doing what has been done & not what people want now. JCNA can build awareness, suggestions & ideas for membership retention & recruitment.

B2)- Rule Change: Procedures for Concours,  Rallye, and Slalom proposals
The Rules of Competition, JCRC, Rally, Slalom Rules Committee
(Clarification of Policies & Procedures)
Steve explained the BOD rule approved in 2001, and the reason for the change:

Rule amendment Proposal by Gary Hagopian: rule should be amended to read as follows: 
“Proposals for rules changes, must be submitted to the respective committee (i.e. JCRC, Rally, or Slalom), 60 or more days prior to an AGM. A proposal can be brought to an AGM vote if the originator is not satisfied with the committee's response

The respective committee must respond to any proposed rule change not less than 30 days prior to the AGM.  If the committee does not respond 30 days or more before the AGM, the originator can request that the Secretary add the proposal to the AGM agenda.

Secretarial Note was made to the delegates:
The following proposal language was approved by the 2001 AGM:
Item 2:  Proposal that the JCNA Chief Judge (currently Jerry Nell) chair a committee consisting of one Chief Judge nominated by each Region to receive all Concours Rule proposed changes from Directors, Affiliates or individual members.  This Committee will determine all appropriate rule changes required and present all Rule revisions and/or new Rules prepared for publication to the AGM delegates for ratification for use in the appropriate competition year.
The Rally Committee and Slalom Committee chairs will form committees from nominees of each of the 6 Regions and proceed in the manner set forth above for the Concours rule committee.
Each Committee Chair will make binding selections for Regional representation when there is more than one nominee from a Region.  Each Committee Chair to take whatever steps are necessary to have these committees in place by November 1, 2001.           Approved

Steve moved that proposal made by Gary H. be approved by AGM! Sherman 2nd. Approved by Board by 6=5 vote! 
Mark: rule limit now = None!
Brock- stated his opposition.  Specifically proposes most of AGM spent on specific concour items. Say the passage would nullify.
Doug- favors- allows committees to respond- but also allows originator a method of appeal. Only 6 members on committee.  But 6,000 members-democratic
Rufus Coburn-Austin: Opposition: Appellate process not to AGM, committee doing its job. Process /thinks we (Delegates) keep returning  to trivial matters.
Brain: opposition: 2nd sentence.  Agree we need appellate process. Maybe BOD.
Dave B: Agrees with Doug- Understands there’s no appeal process- thinks we need an imperfect process vs. none. In favor as 1st step.
Dennis Eklof: 2 issues:  If committee does not respond, someone should have right to appeal.  But doesn’t like that committee decides- need mechanism. Suggests look for alternative.
Stew Cleave:  Conceivable committee could be overwhelmed – need more than 30 days to respond.
Mark Stephenson: Like to propose amendment: 
Proposals for rule changes brought to– 60 days changes, proposal to BOD for inclusion. 
Point of order made by parliamentarian: Originator not here to accept amendment.
Mark-  Caled for the Vote: Failed 110-6

Next Item  B-3 SLALOM HELMETS!

Steve explained “equivalent crash materials- cost diff between SA & Snell helmets- SA $150;
Vs $65.00. Slalom committee requires helmet for safety & insurance issues. 

Slalom committee Proposal: Helmet ehttp://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260209432255
$1,525
to change: Art  4 Sec A slalom rules be amended:
Replace sentence:  with proposed (B30 verbiage)

Dennis Preble 2nd. 
Stew: Questioned- if we had this rule, and someone gets hurt, what liability does club slalom steward have? 
Is the responsibility of entrant, not slalom committee.
Steve (speaking as Slalom chair, not lawyer (although is one. ))

JC Taylor does not require helmet, 
Jay- Helmets marked- DOT, Snell 2000 or 2001 (select correct year).  Any steward can read this, with owners own helmet- decline to run with unverifiable -  All elements the same. Quality  determinable.
Jeff B. Supports- our clubs have http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260209432255
$1,525
 JCNA sanctioned slalom - not a lot of hidden costs. 1 was cost of helmet.

Kurt - In motorcycle business. Safety inspection at Daytona 170mph all Snell 75, if can’t determine- there is a label says Snell 75- Heads worth more $10.  Add good condition and connected.  
Steve-rules say chin strap must be buckled.
Chris G, JCOH. Current rule has no ----; chin strap on same protection. 
Dennis Preble- supports.
Question-Why DOT approved not included?.

Steve- Snell helmets DOT rated. SA & M.
Jay - all Snell are DOT- Snell are stricter than DOT.

 Call for Question    -    PASSED  Unanimous

JCRC 2007 AGM Agenda Items
for Delegate Ratification
(Updated March 18, 2007)

A.  JCRC Proposed Changes to the 2006 Official JCNA Concours d'Elegance Rule Book
Rule text changes are underlined.
	
	Effective date: With the exception of item A. 12 "Hose Clamp Applicability" the following changes are proposed to be effective for the 2007 competitive season. The Chief Judges, whose clubs have scheduled April concours, have been provided advanced notice. 

1. Chapter III,  Sec F. Pages. 6, 7 & 8. Judging Teams and Methods. 
Change rationale: Confusing language, carried over from prior editions, has been corrected to more accurately reflect prescribed assignment practices. Delete existing Section III, F 1 thru 4, and replace with the new Section F below. Delete "Whole-Jaguar" judging (F.4.b.). Its use conflicted with the prescribed time restrictions and its description did not address inherent problems. Add new F.3. guidance for Judging Team Leaders. Renumber III F. 5, 6 & 7 as 4, 5 & 6. 
"F. Judging Method and Teams 
1. Number of Certified Judges Per Team (2004 AGM)
To judge any JCNA Division at a Concours d'Elegance, there must be at least one JCNA Certified Judge per team, including the OV Team. (See Chapter III, D.3.)
Lisa wanted Line items read:
Read by Steve Cleave
	2. Team Judging
Prescribed teams of Judges (see a. and b. below) will evaluate specific areas of Champion, Special and Driven Division Entries. (See Chapter 2 Spirit statements). JCNA provides 4 scoresheets that accommodate the 3 to 5 possible areas to be inspected, depending on the Entry's Division:
Score sheet #1 - OV
Score sheet #2 - Exterior
Score sheet #3 - Interior & Boot 
Score sheet #4 - Engine
Judges should be assigned an area according to their expertise and fully judge the items listed on their score sheet, for all cars in the team's assigned class. More than one Judge must not be assigned to the same area, except when an Apprentice Judge is assigned to the team. Judges are encouraged to share their authenticity expertise and may assist other team members. Operation Verification (OV) is conducted either by the primary team or by a separate OV team (See Chap.V.B.)

Brock moved for adoption:
Steve K- concerned about word ‘immediately’
Joann- replace with: ‘in a timely fashion’
Phil- (add-‘if not known’)

a. Number of Champion or Special Division Judges Required per Team.  (2004 AGM)
Three or four Judges will be responsible for judging OV, Exterior, Interior & Boot and Engine, excluding Apprentice Judges and the separate OV judging team when used. (2005 AGM)

	b. Number of Driven Division Judges Required per Team.
Two or three Judges will be responsible for judging OV, Exterior and Interior, excluding Apprentice Judges and the separate OV judging team when used. (2005 AGM)

3. Judging Team Leaders
Team leaders shall be assigned to all teams by the Chief Judge. The team leader shall:
a. Introduce him or herself and the team to the Entrant.
b. As the judging of each Entry is completed, promptly scan all team scoresheets assuring that: all required fields are completed, Entrant’s initials are present where required, and cleanliness and condition deductions are commensurate with local scoring experience and teaching.
c. 	As soon as your score sheet review is finished, immediately have the sheets delivered to the Chief Judge or Scrutineers, as appropriate.
d. On a not-to-interfere basis, assure that Apprentice Judge’s scoresheets are critiqued and their questions answered. Deliver Apprentice scoresheets to the Chief Judge at the conclusion of your judging assignment.
Brock agrees to amendments.
Joann- pollen- no deductions
Rain- no deductions
“Local conditions” 
Call for vote on 4 amendment 
# 1 JCRC item  Passed Unanimously
Time -  11::38
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. 	Chapter III, Page 13, Score Sheets During Judging
Change rationale: A preceding paragraph requires the Judge to note the location of the discrepancies in the space provided on the new score sheets. The guidance in the last sentence of paragraph 14 is now unnecessary and should be deleted. A discussion caution has been added.

14. Score Sheets During Judging
Except for the Entrant's initialing non-authentic deductions at the time of judging, score sheets are not to be made accessible to the Entrants for examination for any reason at any time on the day of the Concours d'Elegance.  Judges are encouraged to write small notes on the score sheet to help the Entrant know why deductions have been made so the problems can be corrected before the next Concours. Judges are cautioned that unnecessary discussion with the Entrant, regarding condition and cleanliness deductions, can lead to unpleasant disagreements.
Discussion- Stew explained cleaning up unneeded language.
Request delegate ratification- VOTED: Passed Unanimously
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. 	Chapter III, Page 14, Care in Applying Penalties
Change rationale: As the result of reported instances of Judges making seeming excessively large cleanliness and condition deductions, the following guidance has been added:
     	
c. 	Care in Assessing Large Condition and Cleanliness Deductions
Judges should take advantage of the expertise and experience of all team members by conferring with them before assessing large (1.0 point or greater per item) cleanliness or condition deductions. 

Request delegate ratification
Joann motion to accept, Lisa calls for Quetion /Passed
Vote on Motion: Passed Unanimously
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. 	Chapter V, Page 2, Logos, Labels and Decals
	Change rationale: Clarification and expansion of the definition. (An input from John Walker, J.C. Houston, revised the proposed windshield decal allowance and added dash plaque guidance, March 12, 2007.)

c)	Logos, Labels and Decals	
	Parts and accessories which, when properly installed, normally allowed the manufacturer's cast, engraved or imprinted name or logo to be plainly and easily observed, are considered non-authentic if the original brand name or logo is missing. Decals, stick-on labels and metal tags are judged separately and may not affect the authenticity of the item to which they're attached. Decals, labels or permits required by local authorities, places of work or residence, for legal operation or access or like purposes, may be neatly affixed to the vehicle's glass or bumpers without deduction.  An entrant may also display not more than two window or bumper stickers or decals issued by clubs or organizations that are JCNA affiliates or whose stated primary mission is to promote the preservation, exhibition and restoration of antique and/or classic automobiles.  
 
	Dash plaques issued to participants of motoring events sponsored by JCNA affiliates or other recognized sponsors of such events, shall be allowed in Driven and Special Divisions only and shall be neatly affixed to the dash or console of the entrant's vehicle.

Rufus already prohibition advertising. 
Lisa Hendrix called  for theVote :  3 opposed PASSED

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. 	Chapter V, Page 5, add C.2 b). Body Stripes (Coach Lines)
Change rationale: The guidance for the Judge to observe and examine body stripes was omitted in the prior version.

C.2 b). Body Stripes (Coach Lines)
Determine whether body stripes are appropriate for the model. 
- If body stripes (coach lines) are appropriate and present on the car, evaluate the authenticity of their position, color and composition. 
- If body stripes should be on the model but are missing, assign the mandatory non authentic deduction.
- If body stripes are NOT appropriate for the model but are present on the car, assign the mandatory non-authentic deduction.

5 A. Chapter V, Page 5, Preservation Class - Fit and Finish 
	Change rationale: For consistency, the term pin striping has been changed to "body stripes" and judging criteria added.
 
Restored paint (percentage of restoration shall be determined by the Exterior Judge) shall be treated the same as "Wrong Color". Non-authentic pin striping on top of restored paint, shall receive an additional deduction. Body stripes should be evaluated as in C. 2 b). above. New body stripes shall receive a non-authentic deduction.

Request delegate ratification

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. 	Chapter V, Page 8, Tire Condition and Sidewalls
Change rationale: In the prior edition, the fact that red line sidewalls were considered non-authentic in Champion Division, but allowed without a deduction in Driven and Special Divisions, was mentioned in Chapter VI but omitted in the Chapter V guidance. It has been added here.

	c)  Condition and Sidewalls
All tires subject to judging should be judged for weather checking, excessive tread wear and blemishes. Depending on the era, many Jaguars were available from the factory with either white wall or black wall tires. There shall be no deduction for an Entrant’s choice of white or black sidewalls provided they are in keeping with the vintage of the Jaguar. Redline sidewalls were never offered by Jaguar and are considered non-authentic in Champion Division only.

12:13  Request delegate ratification  Dick made Motion: Dennis P 2nd, as ratified.
Passed nanimously
------------------------------------------------------
7. 	Chapter V, Page 8, License Plate Brackets, License Plates and Mountings
Change rationale: Certain details regarding the presence and judging of license plates and their frames were overlooked last year and are added here in #10 and #11.

10. License Plate Brackets, License Plates and Mountings 
     	All models delivered to North America were provided with a prepared bumper location or specific devices necessary for mounting a front license plate. If an Entry does not have a front license plate mounted, and is a model originally delivered with separate license plate mounting devices, those devices must be displayed either on or off the car. Check the license mounting devices for authenticity. If an official North American license plate is not required; does not have to be in place; a “Jaguar” or club plate may be displayed without a non-authentic deduction. License plates themselves will only be judged for cleanliness, NOT condition. 

11. License Plate Frames and Plate Clear Covers
	Plain license plate frames or those advertising current or past Jaguar dealerships, JCNA, JCNA Affiliates, or promoting the Jaguar marque are accepted. (Frames may be of any material.) All other license plate frames will be scored as non-authentic unless the Entrant can document that Jaguar Cars Ltd., Jaguar Cars Inc., or Jaguar Canada Inc. offered them for that specific model and Model Year. Clear plastic or glass license plate covers are allowed and, if present, will be judged for cleanliness and condition.

Request delegate ratification Dick Moves acceptance: Mark 2nd; 
Joann:  Some XJS didn’t have front mountings- must be with cars? Yes
Lou K. – drilling not done by Jaguars. 
How European plate treated: No requirement to have front plate.

Item # 8

------------------
8. 	Chapter V, Page 8, Emblems and Badges
Change rationale: Several emblem and badge issues, not addressed in the rules, were raised during the 2006 competitive year. New guidance was warranted. 

	12. Emblems and Badges
	Jaguar, model, engine and other authentic emblems should be firmly attached and displayed in their original locations, finish and numbers. Non-essential magnetic or temporarily fastened personal badges are considered non-authentic. If a badge bar is present and is authentic for the model, appropriate auto club badges may be neatly attached. In the absence of an authentic badge bar, no more than two such badges should be attached to the front grillwork. Badges should be period correct with a direct Jaguar or generic auto club connection. Badges should not represent other marques. 

Request delegate ratification Dick- Motion to accept! 2nd! 
Question of   Non-essential (community access): 
Question -Essential- small logos- Jaguar stick-ons on boot
Mark: club badge vs. ‘period correct’! 
Rufus means 1935, 50’s badge not correct for 30’s car. 
Mark suggest vs. ’Other badges’ should be period correct.
Joann: Sun-pass (EZ Pass) badges: Toll road badges. Fall under operation
Dave B- Late model car- no grill badge- display 
Dick- question of member embellishment- Jaguar’s 
Gerry E. ‘define period correct’-
Sherman- Toll passes- speed passes: 
Stew: Emblems and badges- not needed for legal access: 
Sentence 2, Motion to strike ‘non-essential’
Mark “ Essential Magnetic –are not a deduction.
Badges should be period correct with Jaguar or auto club   
(See MARK)
Other badges should be period correct. 

Jerry Litz XJS- mounted 2 badges each side of license plate. Back to committee –withdrawn.      Mark-Motion withdrawn

9. Chapter V, Page 10, Driven Division Electronics
Change rationale: This was changed because the word "correct" was considered improper if there were more than one way to do it.

     2006 version:
	b)  Driven Division
	      Inspect the electronic devices in all Driven Division Entries for neat and correct installation.
     2007 revision:
b)  	Driven Division
	Inspect that the electronic devices in all Driven Division Entries are neatly installed in the original mounting space, utilizing the original speaker locations and external housings and grilles.

Request delegate ratification DICK Moved. Passed Unanimously
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
10.  Chapter VI, Pages 7 & 8, Body Stripes (Coach Lines).
Change rationale: The previous edition omitted any guidance relating to Body Stripes. Add a new note "j" under Pin Striping (Body Stripes) item # 34. All subsequent Exterior notes must be moved forward one letter.
Amended for 2008 implementation (for consistency with item 5a/b)
j. Body Stripes (Coach Lines). Where offered, factory applied and authentic optional body stripes (Coach Lines) consist of one or two narrow, closely spaced stripes complimenting or contrasting to the body color. (See applicable Judging Guides and Factory Brochures for additional details.) Body stripe (Coach Line) embellishments such as initials, monograms, leapers, scrolls, etc. are non-authentic. 

Request delegate ratification D- Move to adopt! Sherman  2nd: 
Joann- If connect is it one line? Stew not model specific.
Stew- Judging guide!  Geoff: Some connect some didn’t-see guide.
Stew : Motion to delay (implementation) to 2008 
Motion to close discussion   --Passed
Motion: 112-4 PASSED
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
11. Chapter VI, Page 16, Engine Item #26 Data Plates and Decals 
Change rationale: Correction of a scoring inconsistency between chapter VI pages 5 and 16.

Change Engine Item #26, Data Plates and Decals deduction to 0.5 ea (vice 1.0 ea) and add Max. Deduct of 4.0 to match the same discrepancy listed on Chapter VI page 5.

Dick: Requested delegate ratification. Sherman 2nd,  Passed Unanimously
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
12. Chapter VI, Page 18, Note f. Hose Clamp applicability
Change rationale: During the course of developing the JCNA model-specific Judging Guides, more (but not all) has been learned regarding which year Jaguars used Cheney hose clamps. It is now known, with some certainty, that Cheney clamps were used on Series 3 E-types through 1974. The use of Cheney's on XJ cars of the same period is still being determined. (Effectivity delayed until 2008.)
 
Hose Clamps: Hose clamps must match the original including the material, the finish, the configuration of the adjustable band, and the shape and style of the adjusting screw head. All pre-1975 hose clamps should have round head, straight-slot adjusting screws; their adjusting bands should be grooved, not perforated. (Hex-headed clamp adjusting screws did not appear until approximately 1975.) Series III E-types and their contemporary XJ6s (~1971)). Brand name is not judged. Clamp bands must be the appropriate length (size) for the application; clamps with MORE than approximately one inch of the band showing beyond the adjusting screw will receive a non-authentic deduction. (Implement in the 2008 competitive year.)

Sherman - the 1” part of existing rules? YES

Unanimously Passed
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

13. Chapter II Section 2.B. Champion Division Classes, Section 3.B Driven Division Classes and Appendix D, Official JCNA Concours d'Elegance Competition Classes.
	Change Rationale: At the recent request of Jaguar Club of Florida, and with agreement from others, it was determined that, in recognition of the substantial differences between the XK8/R and the New XK/R, the existing Champion and Driven Division classes for the XK8/R should be split into separate A & B classes to accommodate the new models.

	C16A: XK8 Coupe and Conv. (1996-2006), XKR (1999-2006)
C16B: New XK and XKR Coupe and Conv. (2007-On)

	D9A: XK8 Coupe and Conv. (1996-2006), XKR (1999-2006)

Nation's Capitol and the Virginia Jaguar Clubs, has formally requested that some degree of engine operation or Entry "roadability" be added to the JCNA concours judging criteria.

Many 2nds . 
1)	Motion to approve 2007. 
This is something already done- Delaware & Mexico already do this! BRIAN

Jo-Ann: Like a British all-car show- Jag Concours concurrent!
DAVE stated that Tex/Del- hold JCNA sponsored rallyes.  If members can participate in other rallies.  Make more rallies available

Motion passed 113-3.

Rallye #2 proposal:
7.1.41.

JCNA members may drive a non-Jaguar equipped engine vehicles. Provided they own a running . ---- (see Brian)
Dave- stipulation: performance of Jaguars in  like  running
Motion failed!

Rallye Item #3:

Change 7.4.1 “ Combine sub paragraphs: Driver & navigator teams top 3 scores would

“points earned during each event would be awarded to both driver & navigator, and ----
(SEE BRIAN)
Rallye Committee: evenly split: teams vs. separate , requires change in scoring team.
requires teams to remain in  intact- rally sets separate scores for driver & navigator!

Top 3 scores:
 Kurt—Not a factor in trophy costs! 
Charles O- He drives, daughter navigates. Iff she’s not available, he wants option to get another friend to serve as navigator. 
Sherman- would it increase participation in the Program?: Yes.  I support the Proposal.
MOTION PASSED  115-1 

E)   Dan Lokun: “that BOD be authorized to discuss creating a 
      “North American Heritage Trust” for North American Archives
Steve W: Point of order: BOD will put on Fall Agenda! 
Jeff Booth: Proposal
Dennis Eklof  - JANE: Benefits? Ocean not a barrier!   Expense- Why? 
Rufus- What does Jaguar/Ford think about this?
Mike Cook: Jaguar NA  archivists- we have our own version of JDHT in Mahwah- do have research facilities, advertises in JJ.  That part is covered. Museum issue- 10 years ago Jag wanted to build NA museum. Blueprints for museum, funding began $2 M, but –
Car collecting bust—know what that costs.

Greg- plans all came to a halt, had begun acquiring vehicles. Have some.

Steve W: Interesting undertaking this is not appropriate for BOD. If private group wants to do research, find site, funding etc.  Ask for JCNA sanction —OK.
Budget- in deficit unless Membership up???

Kurt: Thinks about this-(Museum for Jags) need to prepare for (Jags)  not being @--
Delegates commented - passed on this- tremendous amounts of money-- if we had plans for a building –like Ind/Kansas City- people collect cars 100 pt cars—Estates liquidated- why not think ahead may have build appropriate museum donated, etc. Designate lawyers donate to charity etc.
Build/cars.
Dennis Eklof: Idea about museum excellent one funded by donations. Look at proposal-Jaguar has its  own JHDT  doesn’t see benefits.
Not drawing on dues of this organization. JANE would not support.
----------
Jay-Legal Issue-  JCNA Chartered as a Delaware corporation. Take & hold any bequest or real property- gifts & charities- gifts can be restricted. Tax consequences on estate –regardless of who the recipient is?
MOTION FAILED
