I'll admit at times, the two-up is not equal to one-up, but don't say there isn't any integrity in the class because of it.
OK.... so what don't you understand about a Formula
RULE that the rest of the world understands to mean.. this rule is tested and assures that the racing is fair and level. (The F18 class was worried that the class would not be viewed as level and so they prohibited listing boat types at major events... they were all F18's.)
This is a very simple... it is just truth in advertising.
Create two distinct classes... when you choose to race even up in the same start... call it level racing.
What about crew weight? Let's talk about that. According to some, if you are 10lbs over the minimum, there is an unfair advantage to the lighties, even in the heavy wind. So, why don't we handicap that? People in the F18 class think if you are 10lbs on either side of the optimum crew weight, then you are handicapped.
Why isn't there a handicap for that?
Even the A-class, lighter is better, so if the crew is 180, let's give them a handicap too, in the same class.
Nope, don't want to do that, cause we want to race on elapsed time, non of this handicap stuff.
If you are going to be anal about stuff, let's just go all the way!!!!
