Chuck, That is what Wood Crafters is all about........... kinda up the middle ... between a fun fly and contest and with Scale added, it really touches most of the bases. WC 06 will include Speed 400 Electric and Scale cross country.
I like seeded MOM, it has it's own distinct feeling of tight competition, but it requires mucho ground support. Gotta be thankful there are groups willing to work hard to put on MOM contests.
