You're right, Kyle. Some regionals attract a lot more veterans. PNW attracts a lot of new teams (it's also a newer regional). The Davis/Sacramento is really close to the weighted average of 1016. (By the way, Kyle is an amazingly talented freshmen who helped me install bumpers on Maverick at PNW. His team roolz.)

I'm sorry I won't see IRS at Davis. Good luck! By amazingly good scheduling, I will be visiting the SoCal Regional next Saturday, and I might have an excuse to be in Atlanta on business the weekend of the Championships...
