I say leave it alone. This is a simple event with simple rules. The idea was and is to get as many people flying NW Sport .40 as we can. Now we want to limit it to scores under 250, sorry Joe I don't agree. Joe you know how I feel about you, so please don't take it the wrong way. We just had the record set at 199, by Bill Darkow. Bill is 81 years old and this is the only event he flies all year and he's looking to better his score next year. He's flying a new plane that 'could' break 250. So, he breaks 250 if the plane and the pilot bring everything together in one day and then we tell him he can't fly with us anymore? I won't back that. We've (my sons and I) flown NW Sport .40 for the last two years and only Mike has competed in it more than we have in that time. And no one flying this event wants it changed. I can't think we want to put something like this to a vote on Flyinglines with a bunch of people who don't and/or won't fly with us, and let them decide to change it for those who fly it. It's just like the fuel vote last time, I remember someone telling me 40-50 people voted on that issue and we only have, at the most 12-15 at any given contest. Most of us don't even care what fuel is used, but now we have to find a fuel which is hard to find in our area, where most of the events are flown. Again, Joe you know I count you as a close friend and we don't have to agree on everything. And are we really talking about one contest a year, NW Regionals, which we don't even know if we will have again? That's the only contest I saw an "expert" at, and again I don't even know if either one of them actually the event.
