Default Highest scoring MARC car ever

Dean Drenzek and his Nov 27 Phaeton scored 497 points and achieved the highest scoring car for MARC ever. Well deserved and a wonderful car.

Hey Mark, I thought you had been around this awhile. To my knowledge the high mark was ten years ago at 498.45. Of course the way things have changed it will be surpassed in the future.

I should add that even then it was a ten year old restoration with no alterations or 'touch-ups' during those ten years.

So exactly 'WHAT" do scores from different years actually tell you/us? Is someone trying to imply one car is better than the other?

So with all the recent censorship and deleting of posts, wouldn't this be considered an antagonistic post trying to dig at a Fordbarn participant who arguably has done as much for the hobby and this site as anyone by touting someone else has the highest score in MARC history. Folks that know how the system works likely realize that is an unfair comparison.

I totally agree with Brent! Make sure what you post is accurate and current so as not to upset or ridicule the true champion ! Wayne

your talking in circles because you really dont know what its all about

they are all true and equal #1 champions, on any given day scores can change up or down without touching / improving the car...

I also see this as an assumption that judging today is more lenient than it was in the past, hence the scores are higher. Does this mean that judges today do not know as much as they did in the past, and that MARC judging is looser (for lack of any other term) than MAFCA judging? I think that judging today might actually be more fair than in years past as we have a more complete RG&JS available to us plus more and more research and studies now than before.

The 27 Phaeton is featured in a photo spread in the Restorer from a few months ago. An impressive car, article and amount of effort.
