My point was made.
This thread is somewhat of a rehash of an earlier thread about USA Nationals. Here is that thread. You made similar comments then.
https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!searchin/rec.aviation.soaring/no$20contests$20for$202$20years$20in$20the$20west/rec.aviation.soaring/xbLG9wqkBjg/XHNlAU8-444J
However, the thread conversation lost some interest when the west coast pilots mentioned no west coast national contests in 2013. This was also discussed a year prior with similar lack of support for the west coast pilots.
One question I have (btw, not attacking, just interested), where in the US do you live that puts you 66 hours and 4380 miles from Hobbs / 6350 miles to Montague?
