Default Dust Devil 06 - The 2006 South African National Championships - Fat Lady throat-clearing ...

Its day 10 tomorrow, [Day 9 for some] and places are still changing
daily. Catch all the news at http://www.sssa.org.za
The task setter(s) have thrown 1200km+ down on 2 days but no-one has
yet to oblige them!
Task speeds over 147Kph+ over 449km area task have been seen and much
racing has been the order of the day.
Will the new girl on the block (the JS-1) show a clean pair of heels?
Will Bobby (who flew his first World record in 1963) snatch the Club
Class pot?
....and will an ASW20B give the carrot to the ASW27?

All answers tomorrow from Bloemfontein.

I noticed that John Coutts flew 8km/hour slower than Laurens Goudriaan on task 7 and lost 11 points.
Task 8 he flew 10 km faster and won 219 points.
Looks to me that Laurens is being beaten by the scoring system,not by John.
