To be fair, however most of the current IT spec weights were NOT determined under the current, light-of-day specification process.

Evidence suggests that previous Comp Boards have made their decisions assuming that spec weights were (a) based on the curb weight, ( NEVER set to adjust competitiveness, © determined by a formula, (d) NOT determined by a formula, or (e) set by pixies in the dark of night, in a wooded glen in Northampton.

True K man, but I didn't say it twas always so....

Actually I like the image of the past comp boards getting together, drinking some (a lot?) of spirits, then getting a wall, a bunch of 'Post-its' with weights wriiten on them, a spinning stool and a blindfold.

You can figure out how it went from there, but one hint is that all but one member ducked for cover when it came time to "pick" a weight!

(Sorry Kurt, (W) some of the weights have been spot on, but others...well, you know what I mean!)
