How about a Sportsman class, too? If we get enough interest, I'm open to experiment. I'd like to draw some guys who have not flown a contest for a while for these classes, too.

What I'll probably do is charge the regular entry fee for a single class and another $10 if a guy wants to fly his regular class and the Open Class. For those in your situation where you may or may not want to move up next year, it would also present the opportunity to fly the class without being stuck there. The great thing about a Fun Fly type event (which SPA contests are according to the AMA rule book) is that you can make it up as you go along.

There has also been some discussion about a round of unknown on Sunday morning that would count in the scores. We pull upwind and downwind maneuvers from a box on Saturday evening so that no one, including me would know the pattern before hand. That presents some special scoring problems, but I think they can be worked out.
