anyone got times for mira loma or mit?

1st place time @ MIT: 2:27 w/o bonuses 2:49 w/ bonuses. The ceiling was around 20 ft. with the limiting factor being hanging cables and pipes. The cold temperatures and unpredictable air in the room contributed to many of the low times.

Hopefully next year they can get DuPont

I've been flying in about a 20 foot gym and was wondering what other people were generally getting. I've had about 2:30 as an average.

yea but keep in mind that people tend to not do as well at comp than in practice. our schools time were also not v reliable because we kinda rushed all our practice. though once we attend soup, we will have much better times. 2:30 is a good place to be at right now though, and if anyone here is not yet there but still above 1:30, you should also be fine. depending on your schedules and competition dates, everyone will be working at their own pace, which makes competition fun to observe

The top score at Brookwood was a raw time somewhere in the 2:00-2:30 range (don't remember exactly, I had a bit of a headache at the time).

Do you know what kind of ceiling it was under (if you saw the flight)? Was there ceiling hits?

The ceiling was ~30 feet, but effectively ~20 feet because everything above that was covered in girders.

Interesting. Probably hit the girders at least once and recovered nicely. If that was no-touch, that's impressive.

I want to add that I saw almost all the top 8 of those flights hitting the ceiling/obstructions at least 2 times. It was hit, descend, climb, hit, descend, climb, repeat.

Are those times including the bonuses or are they raw times?
