Absolutely, I've already printed a copy and studied the changes. Good idea to post it here though! |

Don't see anything about spray adhesive. Anyone have the AM scores for the 2.2 MWC? Still haven't seen them posted anywhere. |

| I don't think you will. The scoring for AM was jacked up. Each course was being judged differently when it came to AM. Jay got the shaft by about 29 points on 1 course alone.

a lot of the Am's didn't tell the judges they were running the AM class , I'm really bummed at this because i did really well, at the end of the night when they read the AM points i was in fourth place. i think from now on all of the courses should be at 40 Pt's so there will be no confusion.

| i do feel very good about my first comp the Axial and Tekin course's kicked my butt . i was the first AM to finish the DNA course, at the time i ran i was one of 4 to finish the Hitech course, they didn't say much on the Maxamp course.

| DeweyCj5 pretty much exemplifies my point. We had some AMs that did much better than the vast majority of the Pros, they should get credit, but I can't seem to even get the preliminary scores posted.

from the sounds of it we never will get that AM list :-( i know that every course i ran i made sure to tell them i was running the AM class. if its in Omaha next year maybe we could have different color score sheets for PRO and AM class

| The problem is, we had a couple judges that were pointing AM's at 40. They also were inconsistent between AM competitors when it came to calling penalties. I watched every course all day long. I saw a couple AM's get away with a lot and others get pointed out at 40.

i know you guys busted your tails to make this work this year and to be expected there will be problems the first year taking on something this big. i cant help but wonder if any of the 3 people that scored above me got a 40 score ? i know 20 points will go a long way in the crawling scores. so just looking for a solution to that problem if you guys plan to host this event next year. it was made very clear to tell the judges what class that you running, so maybe different color score sheets may help with this. i have to take my hat off the the judges that were there, it was a long day ... and to see only a small percentage of the competitors get progress past the first few gates would be equally frustrating to them as well. this is a dead horse, lets not beat it anymore. lets look forward to how well the Midwest Challenge will be next year
