Is anybody else as confused as I am on this event o_o. I mean does anybody have any ideas on how you can adjust the elasticity of the band (or something of the sort) after impound? Or am I the only one who is this confused...

Any national times? I for a fact had the event supervisor tell me I got the best time of the day with about 7 seconds... to bad my egg broke anyway so I got second teired :( lol they should really fix that when they make the event rules for next year, especially since I think I deserved my medal :p....

Loli geuss it just wasn't my year for bottle rockets... sucks too cause I spent over 1000 hours and 400 dollars on my 58 rockets I built this season. My usual combined times were around 53 seconds. Too bad the paper I used for my tops was so finely tuned to the humidity of new york. The 30%+ increas...

lol I love how it says my events for nationals are towers, storm the castle and bottle rockets. My actual events are Bottle Rockets, Mission Possible, Compute This, Awesome Aquifers, and Helicopter Egg Drop(Trial)

Its only a week and a half before nationals, I doubt they will have a live webcast if they didn't say so already. Its a shame really, I wanted the alternates, coaches and parents back home to be able to at least see the opening and closing ceremonys.

I would also like to say, in the rules it says that "a" roter may be used, this means that there can only be one rotor on the device correct?

Finally, some rule clarifications.

Well 33 seconds per launch would definatly be a 1st place medal at nats, but remember almost everybody is going to have (almost) the same conditions on launch day, so if your time was increased by that much do to enviornmental factors it is likely that some other rockets will endure the same enviorn...

Well it turns out that my rockets acctually dont suck that bad (btw got my username changed from rocketman55) 2nd at the NY state tournament with a high 30's combined time. Woot. Techmaster55 - Your rockets were great. I saw your rocket last Saturday and it was very cool! Good luck at Nationals! Bt...
