Cortile Cup Judging begins. The initial judging will take about an hour. Please be available near your vehicle to talk to the judges and answer any questions. We have a rather informal judging criteria but with that said you may want to look at our Cortile Cup page to learn more about the criteria we have here at The Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix. It's a bit different than some other places. |

Meet the Judges - We started this in 2015 and everyone enjoyed chatting! Stop by and chat with the Cortile Cup Judges. Our judging is somewhat informal but at another level extremely technical and critical.
Our judges have a very very deep technical knowledge of Italian cars. If you're deep deep into the Italian car circles you know who they are. You understand what they have done and what they have owned or own. Stop by and pick their brains. You may not have this kind of opportunity ever again and you may just be surprised what you learn. Trust us when we tell you, that if you can get them talking your mouth will drop open.
