Yep it's been changed, don't know how the Alpha rankings work but i think there is something wrong with their overall ranking system because i'm sitting 4th overall and i know other guys have had better times.

Hour rankings are up sh#t creek also, there are obvious double postings and top 10 hours that have not been added. Seems to be more interest in maintaining the pure speed rankings.

To be in the ranking, first one has to POST!

Be nice if they fixed all the bugs first before adding more stuff to the site.
My Alpha and NM rankings are also missing.

Yeah Vando, what you said - I've queried (GPSSS) numerous times as to updating Alpha and Nm rankings (but since I'm not a "gold member" I gather they don't give a sh1t).

PS - Would love to see some video of Jacques gybing at Alpha 500 29knot averages.

PPS - got yourself two GT-31's yet

Jacque sent me these pictures taken at Grussian of him gybing his CA44 at speed. Not during his Alpha runs though. He says he will try and get some pictures or Movie of that. We all know how difficult that is.
I really like that technique!
