Default Introduction to Racing Presentation


http://www.dragonnorth.com/djpresentations/

This link should get you the Andy Davis writeup's(just scroll down). Excellent starting point, also many other articles. He's doing very well @Benalla WGC...again and DJ has said he feels Andy's one of the best!

Best. Tom #711.


Hi Tom,

Thanks for pointing us to Andy's article (and also UH's writeup on flying one's first race). These will be very helpful for the "How to start racing" seminar.

Thanks as well to Chris Ruf for putting together the Intro to Racing seminar. Also, thanks to others like Fernando Silva, Francois Pin, Dave Stevenson, and many others going back at least to Ed Byars and Bill Holbrook who have given freely of their time and money to keep sailplane racing alive and grow our skills. Coaching and mentoring is what it will take to keep racing alive (not to mention give the USA a chance to compete successfully at the World's).
