I also usually leave a day earlier than I need to, just incase.
From what I remember the kelowna trip broke down as follows
2 tanks of gas - $135
toll both ways - $20
hotel (2 days) - $300
food, drink, booze, sunblock and whatever else- $120
entry -$50
so $625 total

On a seperate note, I think thats f*ckin bullsh*t that he only wants to do one a month. If there are paying customers in Alberta, thats where all the doubles should be. Heck, pardon my language Dale, but there were more Alberta competitors at Dales show in Cranbrook than B.C guys.
My rant is over.

*I will remember this comment in the upcoming season...why don't you just phone, instead of questioning my certification. (604) 787-5935...instead of posting on a public forum - think about this, if I didn't have my certification, you could NOT qualify for finals within Canada. You should be more respectful...
My plan is:
a double in Alberta in early spring - march/april
a double in BC-Castlegar - June
a double/triple in Kelowna - August
that means you need 5 singles to goto finals...

James, are you certified to judge 3X shows though? Thats what i think people were getting at... and you did not judge at finals, therefore its near impossible for you to be a 3X judge.
And it seems like you arent doing any shows in july, which is when i wanted to have a 3X anyways, so its not like any of the last 2 pages of people posting matters

I couldn't make it due too family concerts this year...and I had to goto USACi finals and fly to Thailand for USACi in the same month. Wayne said it was cool...yes I am 3X certified, and that came right from Wayne himself...as for July, maybe Dale's show or if someone wants to step up and hold an event...

James doesn't schedule the shows. The shops that want to run one do. Nobody needs to bitch at him about when, where or why there aren't shows.
It's up to us to put on a show. The only sheduling of his that has to do with anything is when he's not doing a show.
The show I had last June was great. Largely in part to James, Marty and Youds.
When I do my next show (in June again) I want to be sure that James and crew are available. I would not likely have a show that didn't involve James and USACi (in that order). Having DBDrag and/or IASCA as well would be the icing on the cake and making it multi point would be the candles.
The shows that will have best turnouts are being planned now. The lacklustre shows are put together on short notice. Give everyone a chance to get their crap together so show dates can be posted before the bitching gets everyone down. It's a lot of work to organize with little to no financial return. All the pissing and moaning really drags a guy down.
