Worst of all was the mangling of the SCCA score sheets by the inept staff. Several awards were given incorrectly or not at all, and the recipients were humiliated and embarrassed. Days later, the organizers had still not straightened out the mess. The management needs to be canned and the venue needs to be changed to someplace fitting like a country club. It may be too late. It would appear that a once great Concours has been irreparably FUBARed. We will never attend this disaster again.

Sounds like a mess. I'm sure the organizers are going to get an earful and many long time participants probably just won't go back. Like Randy suggested, they need to take a hard look at bringing the event back to Palo Alto (park, golf course, etc.).
