We are down to the wire on todays task and it is literally neck and neck down the last leg. Currently looks like Hank Kauffman is leading but with Graham Parker very close behind, followed in close company by Tom Claffey, Bruce Taylor and David Jansen. Could still be anybodys race at this point.

Subject: Re: [Aus-soaring] Australian Grand Prix - Lake Keepit Perhaps (as the scorer) I can answer. The point Rangari is a bonus point waypoint. The first pilot to reach it gets an extra scoring point. The observation zone at waypoints is a 500m radius circle so pilots only have to pass within 500m (in any direction) to make it.

Subject: Re: [Aus-soaring] Australian Grand Prix - Lake Keepit Hi Ross, I see that the points of Keepit, Rangari and Bellata are almost in line. Is there a reason for this, and which side of Rangari are pilots deemed to have successfully rounded the point? Obviously flying through the beer can would be sufficient, however if it is almost a straight line, is there a right and wrong side to pass the point?
