I didn't know more than 1,000 points was possible. Was the scorer bribed with a dozen Krispy Kremes and bottomless coffee?

From the SSA 2017 US Nationals Competition Rule Book

11.8 Scoring Guest Pilots
11.8.1 Terms such as "Best Speed" and "Best Distance" refer to the performance of regular entrants only; guest pilots achieving a
better daily result shall receive a proportionally extrapolated score.
11.8.2 On a day when the only finishers are guest pilots, the highest speed shall be assigned a score of 600 points.
11.8.3 At the option of contest organizers, guest pilots shall be ranked and listed either separately from regular entrants at the
bottom of official score sheets, or along with regular entrants.

For the day Bruce, flying as a guest as defined in section 5.8 of the rulebook, had a speed of 88.13 and fastest contestant had a speed of 85.92. So 88.13 / 85.92 = 1025.72 or 1026 for the day.

Clear as mud?
