This thread reminds me of a guy who raced with us a few years back with a Tornado. It was an old one with originaly one trap. He put on a second trap wire and had to take the hit for it (not much) although they never used it in the race and then complained about taking the hit. I explained it like this: If you rob a liquor and have a gun with you but never use the gun, you still get charged with armed robbery.
Put the wings on and have a good time sailing. Until you start winning, nobody will protest.
