| Won't be able to Comp
I might come out with my little 3 year old, Evie, to watch and share in the fun, at least for as long as she will let me! She loves crawlers, but she loves swings amd slides more! If we don't make it, have fun, stay dry, don't break and ... make Robbob work harder! =) Last edited by Captain Midnight; 05-06-2011 at 06:10 PM. |

| Do You have a functioning dig? Or a scale rig? If so then yes. Even if you just come to watch and see whats going on. We had some spectators last time at southford falls and they stayed most of the day jsut watching. |

| He CAN compete with out dig but would obviously be at a considerable disadvantage. However I competed in my first 2.2 comp without a functoning dig. I lost... but then again I still lose even with a dig! LOL!

Weather looks great - highs along the coast -- 60-65, maybe a little fog but that should burn off quickly. see ya on the beach |

Thanks to everyone who showed, Dan and Bryan for making the 2.5hr trip down, Curt for setting some incredible courses and every one who judged for helping out. The weather played into our favor for the day thankfully. I had a blast! Got the pics up from my camera if anyone wants to view. http://s208.photobucket.com/albums/b...view=slideshow |

Thanks for all the encouraging words on the courses. Congrats to Robbob (2.2) and Dave (scale) for their wins today! Brian and Dan P., thanks for making the trip, I know it was a long one. I hope you enjoyed yourselves. All of the courses had cool gates. Course 1: gate 1 the drop-in, gates 4 & 5 and the finish. Course 2: gates 2,3 & 4 - thanks to Dan P for showing us all that 4 was driveable. Course 3: gates 3 - 4, & 5 proved to be very challenging. We will get points series standings and pics up within the next few days. Thanks to all that made the trip. -Curt |
