Default 2007 US Contest Rules Poll and Meeting Minutes



Now if we can do something about the unreasonable start cylinder
penalty. Most I have seen are nearly 150 points if you are not in the
cylinder for the full 2 minutes. On a three hour task this is equal
to about a 27 minute penalty.

There is no rule that says you must stay IN the cylinder, but you must
stay UNDER the height.
