Thanks for sharing John. That is why I am pushing for keeping it blind racing so you don't know who you are flying against that day until the finals. Would keep it interesting and exciting. I could see how it could also foster team flying with other friends because the likelyhood at least at the beginning of your flying against each other is low. Americans practicing more team flying is not a bad thing at this point...
