I support a Club Class Nationals in the US to provide the most
competetive international team and maintain reasonable entry level
costs to racing.

I also support lifting the ban on previous US Team members that
participated in an FAI class, again in hopes of fielding the most
competetive and dedicated team.

Well said Mike.

Just in case I did not say this in any of my other voluminous
postings, I ,too, fully support ending the ban on former US Team
members in the FAI classes from being slected for the Club Class Team.
We should send the best pilots, flying club class ships that we can to
every World Championships- Period!

The fact is I would love the opportunity to race Karl Streideck in a
Discus, or Ray Gimmey in a Std Cirrus, or just about any of the other
top pilots in the handicapped, club class. But I can not do this right
now on a level playing field - excpet through the club class concept.
