Hi All

I think that the rules on wash hanging need clarification.=20

In 1984 the first year of the K1 race Robin Belcher was penilised for =
sitting on the the wash of Ivan Lawler anf Graham Burns.
The start times of the two races were modified to prevent junior K2's =
starting behind or with the K1's.

But in other years I have been told that it is OK to sit on the wash of =
Junior Veteran crews. It would be sad if the results of the
K1 race were distorted by the four day event.

Regards

Mike Martin.
