OK here we go guys, straight to the punch...

Big congrats to Chris and Rich of team "Signals Two" for a win in first ever NBRCC 1.9 scale team comp!!!

Also congrats to me and Dean for first in the 2.2 class.

To the winners some super sweet NBRCC stickers made up my Matt and Jeni H. Thanks guys!

Now the "Scale Tough Nuts" award goes to none other than Greg, a.k.a PEEWEE for putting a couple scratches on his pretty rig...

It was a difficult comp to score so if anyone sees any mistakes please let me know. I broke the tie score between second and third place by which team finished the event.

So to recap the event:

We set up one course that ran both the 1.9 and 2.2 classes. The 1.9 course consisted of the first 10 of 13 gates and included two of the three winch hills. Time limit was changed from 12 to 15 minutes during the first run to account for rescues and winching. Also both of the drivers had to progress all gates except for the winch hills where only one of the two drivers had to progress. Seemed that the biggest confusion of the day was deciding the what action scored a two for a "Rescue" and what scored a 5 for a "Winch".

For next time a clearer definition of penalties will be a must. Charlie already suggested some better wording. Also looking at the comp scores I'm not so sure we needed to ignore the 40pt max penalty rule.

Let me know if you have any suggestions.
