Classic Pattern Event in Chicago...2010?

I would like to have a Classic Pattern Contest in Chicago in May or June of 2010. It would be a one day event (Saturday) and feature an extensive Friday practice/trimming session with the opportunity to fly any one of my personal models.

The challenges are the Chicago weather, conflicts with other events and which rule congress to use. Personally, the SPA rules allow allow for airplanes that "look" like classics with MAJOR deviations to fuselage length, wing stab location and prohibit the actual "replication" of the original model including engine selection and landing gear configuration.

I will allow "ANY" classic design (even the 25% deviations allowed in SPA), ANY power plant and ANY landing gear...pilot skill will be measured using AMA rules.

Additionally, I would like to "Demo" my vision of a new Classic Class I am calling "Classic TOC Class", which uses ANY model from the 1978 or 1980 TOC. The idea is to use the designs and ENGINES of the day...no, a DA 50 cannot be used!! I assume I will have a an Akromaster and a Dalotel (Bridi).

Please let me know interest and scheduling preferences.
