Learning is fun.

And yes my preferred strategy is to try to start 1st and then use all
the other gliders as Markers as they Pass me.

The only problem with this is when the finish 45 minutes ahead of me, I
know they are 45 minutes a head of me.

A little complicated but it might be fun to try a contest where the
start time was based on you handicap. Lowest handicaps starts 1st, in
such a way that theoretically everyone would arrive at the finish line
at the same time. So if that ASW27 finishs before you he has beat you.
I you finish before him, your the winner. Would make for some fun
finishes, It would be interesting to see how close the races really
are.
