I'm assuming an RG could be entered in a BG contest, but not vice-versa. If so, I'd be in for "C" with an E powered RG.
How's that for alphabet soup? 🙄

Bruce,
Is there a notice on the CRASH forum about this poll? Also what about COSROCS and Jason's group, in Pueblo?
OK back to the poll.

PS: Ken, I know nothing that would prohibit an R/G from being entered in a B/G event.

I'll find out, Ken. I'll add your vote as soon as I find out for sure.
John, I've only put things on CRASH-Talk. The other clubs will find out through word of mouth and NAR's magazine/newsletter.
Someone pointed out that A is two points short of an Open meet. The G Dual Egg Loft is actually 29, not 31. That being so, it is no longer an option. Since we're all going for C so far, that shouldn't be a problem.
Ken, YES you can use a RG in a BG event, so you're good to go.
Here's the total so far:
A(1) just for the record; A is disqualified
B(1)
C(7)
D2, in CRASH-Talk, you said you changed your vote... from C to what?
Bruce,
Looking at the CRASH results, the gap is narrowing. Not sure but my guess is B has no interest so no need to eliminate and revote. We should try to figure the pull for the A vote and see if even another change might be good.

Let's wait it out. The 12 message e-mail I got this morning doesn't show a narrowing gap. I only counted 1 A, and 1 B, besides the increase in votes for C.
Bruce,
I get the Crash digest form--thought i saw 4 a's no B's and one c. It seems like the glider is the pull. It is for me.

All I'm going to say is that given the wrangling you guys are doing, go for the June date rather than the April date. Thank god I'm not NAR.

Agreed wih the first sentiment, but in fairness, more space has been devoted to SSS/S^4, squared.What I see here is a fine and democratic process to best satify the wishes of the membership. Granted Nar Pink book is convoluted, but it works. And they been doing it for almost 50 years. Now as a bookmark, thats DWD as president, a few computers alive, party phone lines, missile popsicles. etc.

Warren, you have no idea. 🙄
Okay, guys, there was a question about A not being an Open event, but that's not true. It just has to be 60 or below, which A, at 58, is. So A is on. Removing the CRASH votes, here is what NCR has: A(0), B(0), C(5). You can track four for C in previous e-mails here; one is my vote. After CRASH votes come in (Friday), I'll add them, then pass the events on to Joe Hinton.
bruce, there has been so many additions added over on Crash, I'm a little boggled. Options D and E, etc.
But this is pretty routine, I have watched a few of these now, and the process seems to work. whats cool is we would appear to have at least 10 or so flyers. Thats a pretty respectable start. Keep up the good, and thankless work.

I know, John. I'm not going to address CRASH's other options. I understand the good intentions behind them offering more, and I respect that. The three are as they stand: A, B, C. This is NCR's event, and this could go on for months, but I promised Joe I'd tell him what the events are Friday night. Don't be boggled. 🙂
Hey I like C a lot, and thinks its gonna be much fun. Personaly, IME these things settle down after a bit, not months as CRASH manages to keep to its schedule. And it is our event.
Which promises to be a real treat to all those who attend. NAR has a ribbon deal, but given the crossover into expensive motors I'm hoping some hobby vendors will help out with prizes. Once we have the contest slate, I'll be happy to make up some small posters to advertise at Hobbytown, Kolpar, etc. With luck next year NAR will allow for altimeter based events.Then we do altitude with an attitude!
John
