Default Potential $300 increase in contest fees?

Here's an idea, have the contest at an airport that doesn't require downwind landings to the last 1000' as the norm. I'm sure some agency would have a good time asking the pilot of a destroyed glider why they elected to land downwind to the last 1000' of runway. How's the saying go.......altitude above you and runway behind you?
