snip Chris Reply: Chris Who? Always nice to know who we are sharing with. "Chris Who", well let me reply by asking "UH Who?" - hey just playing games here. Chris Ruf - a name you will find on the lower half of the score sheets. Change to WGC scoring , or somehting similar, is a major change that requires significant study, testing, and feedback before adoption. There are many attributes of scoring and tasking at the World level which may well not fit how we race here. In any case- minutes of RC meeting, which are also available to you at the same site say: 40 Use IGC scoring system Comments Discuss later. Under study. No change for 2005. Possibly try on a dual scoring basis once we work out the details. 2xx agreed to chair a sub sub committee to study this. Thanks for sharing UH RC Chair So long as it is not forgotten that is fine. I am not proposing that we adopt all the WGC rules instead of US rules. High speed dangerous start gates and forced downwind landouts are not what I would seek to adopt. My goal would be to look at how cross-country and speed skills are rewarded in the WGC scoring system, then compare it to the US scoring formulas. There may be some adjustments we can make that would help us better pick and breed US pilots to be competitive in Worlds. Hopefully a compromise could be found that does not require a massive overhaul, but would bring us more in alignment. I think it is a topic worthy of more study and discussion. I don't have a fixed opinion on the matter. Chris Ruf |
