...And my thought was that as long as they owned a Jaguar they could
join us, but the Jaguars get to travel together in a pack and the
non-Jags had to lead, follow, or get out of the way.
=20
So, I think it's almost unanimous that it should be restricted to Jaguar
owners, the question is how much leeway to grant owners who won't be
driving their cars. As I said earlier, I don't thing the non-Jag driving
owners will be that interested in joining us for that many sectors, so I
think their numbers will be small compared to Jaguar-driving owners.
But, as owners, I think they'll have something in common with us and
will be valuable additions.=20
=20
Another factor to consider is that we aren't going to be able to prove
any of this anyway. The guy's decades old resto project could be
something that he intended to have done, and he worked up to the last
minute and just didn't quite make it. What are we going to do, make them
send us pictures?=20
=20
I think we should make a statement on the entry form and website that we
would hope entrants would participate in their Jaguar, but if
circumstances prevent that, they can apply for inclusion in another car.
We make them write up a short essay on what they own, why they aren't
driving it, and what they will be driving. Then we can review them and
accept or reject.

OK ... I've run away and come back now that the heat has died
down ... if I follow the gist of this thread (with a little bit of
biased personal interpretation) ... the majority thinking is "Jaguar
Enthusiasts" driving preferably their Jaguars, but alternatively
whatever they want (such as a MGB-uar or Jeep-uar). Am I on track here,
or should I run away again ...
