Well, alright, so I've been reading all the recent stuff about national tour events and too much participation and all that jazz. As a preface before I get into the main point, I see the need to poin

I see your point but the Home office is pushing for 1,000 in 2000. I like the Tour it was fun and gave a taste of what Topeka would be like. I know I'm not even close to good enough to even think ab

LOL! Yeah the Tour here was great and sure I came in 13th but I had a really sore arm (real PITA when you try to remove a caliper the wrong way with 30 minutes or so to grid.) I wouldn't have traded

All this banter about who is qualified and who is not is ignoring the issue of event math. The more entrants, the longer the day gets (running only one course). Event limits should be based on first
