Default 1-26 Nationals?


There is something to be said for the regular rules, and Guy Byars'
excellent efforts to include swift score reporting to the SSA website
from winscore. I never quite understood why 1-26 needs to roll their
own.

There is certainly something to be said for swift posting of results on the web page. Unfortunately we have not had this so far this year, but the 1-26 group has ROLLED THEIR OWN FOR YEARS. In fact the 1-26 group was the first group to allow GPS use during a contest. We also give more credit for miles achieved when you land out, and we still think the winner should get 1000 points no matter how many landouts there are. Why devalue a day because it is hard.

John, borrow or buy a 1-26 and come out and race with us. It is very different flying cross-country in low performance, and we would love to have you. This year we brought rain and weak conditions to TSA making it more challenging.

Next year looking at Moriarty!!! It is a hoot out there.
