Fred:
I agree.  The AMA competition cannot go away, just from our purpose and
by-laws.

Read the documents drawn up when the AMA was started.

One of the PRIMARY purposes of the AMA is to standardize and organize
competition..  The NATS existed before the AMA.  The AMA was officially
started as an organization at the NATS.

ANY EC member who doesn't understand that the NATS and competition in
general is a major part of what the AMA is for doesn't belong on the EC.

BIG TRIM::: 

  However, I can tell all of you that many on the EC don't give a rat's
behind about competition or the Nats.  I am trying to represent competition
and how important it has been in the past and will be in the future.  

So, how does NSRCA handle it if we get cut to a 2-day even for the Pattern
Nats?

ok, then one more:

if it ain't broke, why fix it? Is there some underlying problem that we
aren't aware of? I'm just not seeing the need I guess. if it were a vote,
I'd definitely vote NOT to have to qualify for the Nats.

John:
I realize that this is a different approach and that there are lots of
opinions.  That is all I am asking for.

Flame suit on, cannons loaded and ready...

If you really want a good answer, ask the guys who are competing at Muncie
this year.

If you want to justify a position already decided, survey the population
that will give you the answer you want!

No offense intended.

Why would you want to curtail the most successful segment of the Nats?
Without the Nats, there is little point in maintaining Muncie. 

(BTW, considering the source, I think you are shopping for ammunition rather
than an argument!)

Buddy:
As I said at the beginning of this discussion thread, I am involved with a
total NATS review.  We are talking about all of the NATS, nothing is too
sacred to be up for discussion.

One question I always had is why it the NATS an open event?  Most all sports
NATIONAL championships require you to qualify.  With so many people
complaining that the AMA NATS is 6-weeks long, this was brought up as a way
to shorten the event.  It also would elevate the status of the NATS.  I
don't see how this would reduce participation at the local level.  It may
actually increase it!

Keep in mind that this is just DISCUSSION!!!  Don't get all bent out of
shape because we are talking about it.

I have a question

Why all of a sudden are you talking about special requirements needed for 

Nat's entry.

My take on this, is if this is done we will reduce participation. I may be
wrong but if I am not how is this going to help pattern and the NSRCA?

I think it will be the first step toward a further reduction in membership
and a step toward an all professional Nat's 

Second question

Tony are you pushing this idea for real?
