<DIV>That's correct. The first radius does not set the standard for the others. If all are done same as the first, no downgrade due to radius differencess. If 2 out 4 are different, 2 points or more depending on severity.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Same rationale for other maneuvers like Humpty's, top Hats, or Cuban 8's, or even stalls for that matter: entry and exit radii should be same and if not, 2 points for that infraction alone or more depending on severity</DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>1. Is there a "downside" to running Powermaster 20-20 in the 145 Webra?</FONT></DIV>
