[NSRCA-discussion] More flexibility in class selection? -->Personal dilemma, what to do next season

[Ron Van Putte]

That's right.  Glen's coming back to defend the Nats Master class  
title doesn't guarantee anything.  Bad luck, equipment problems and  
many other factors will play into Glen's success.  After all, David  
Snow might return to defend his title and if Donny Wright ever gets  
off his duff, he could come back to defend his.
