Sent them an email with record ID and claim number they sent me, to
see what the deal was. Probably take them a few weeks to get back to
me, by that time you will have smashed it! Remember don't go out to
fast, those last 20 minutes are grueling.
Are you can to Canada or to the Midwest to compete?
We may try and set a fun/free STREND here in the Fall.
It would have to be hosted at a park or somwhere with no overhead
fees. I will let you know. Unfortunately no Miramar STREND, unless
it is completley set up for them they won't do another one.
