Ha! That first one must have been when they switched from the old green and white license plates to the red white and blue. My Dad finally had to give up his original plates from 1986 last year :(

This is going to be great Brendan.I have a question on the scoring for bending.Hardest bar wins but will the lower bends be scored on some sort of point scale,Say like a 10 point seperation per difficulty step of the bend???if that makes any sense.

Example: 6" g5=100 points/5.5" g5 =90 points. Just curious,It will be a very fun and challenging day no matter what.I am counting the days Bro. :rock :rock :rock :rock

Those events sound great! :rock I have to admit I prefer DO bending for the fun factor. I am also curious about the different lengths used, since I am much better at 7" lengths than anything else. Shoot, even 7.5" :laugh

Yes We will use scoring that will award the hardest bar bent the most points.From there down it will reduce the points percentage wise.Hardest bar 10 points next hardest 9 points 8 points and so on.

Any length can be used Matt 7" and down.And I belive we are all familiar with the bar calibration/difficulty scale so we should have no problem translating across the different lengths.
