There will be 3 nights for a new twilight series, The Ardmore Sprints.
This is to try out various conditions at Ardmore airport plus a chance
to try a slightly different type of racing. The next 3 Thursday nights
will be used for this event.
Every second race will be "reverse grid", based on the previous race.
This should mix up the results a bit plus give some of our newer sailors
a chance at clean air at the front of the fleet. Also a challenge for
the front runners to try and get through the fleet.
We start this Thursday, $10 for the 3 nights.
I will send NoR and registration form direct to everyone who has raced
in the past. Money direct to bank or pay on the night. Any new people
interested let me know and I'll forward instructions.
There will be prizes but no ongoing trophy as in the past. We have
access to the airport and now we need to work out best options for the
future. We will try and be set up prior to everyones arrival but please
don't just head out on to the runway
<
http://blokart.jigluhood.com/tags/runway>, we have restrictions on use
as this is the busiest airport in the country and we need to keep
control of activities. Park in designated area and wait for a briefing
on sailing and safety.
Set up from 5 pm. Briefing at 5.45 with immediate race start. No animals
on the airport (not including fish).
See

go under "live news"
See everyone there Thursday.
