Default Contest Grid Spacing?

We have a small informal "contest" going on this weekend at Sky
Soaring outside of Chicago (http://skysoaring.com) and are laying out
the grid for about 20 gliders. The even gliders are in one line and
odd gliders in the other. *We are about to start painting numbers on
the turf and said to ourselves, what should the spacing be?

What is the suggested minimum spacing from the nose of glider 1 to the
nose of glider 3?

Thanks, John


Hi John,

I lay out our contest grid here at Caesar Creek each year, both
regionals and nationals. I use a 30' nose to nose spot.
