JC: Yes for the full GP. But we're talking about starting everyone at the same time, and keeping everything else the same. Including, turn area tasks, handicaps, regular start and finish geometry, etc. etc.

Here is a link to the international rules (pdf): http://www.fai.org/downloads/igc/SGPrules_V5

As your GP rules evolve, it will be amusing to watch as they deviate from the rules used by the rest of the world. Again.
