I'd probably do that if I could be sure I'd get an experienced Blue student with a 944 NA who didn't use the brakes and only cared about going faster. That's my kind of student.

The sad truth is that I'm at the opposite end of the instructor spectrum from you and Betty. You both love it, you're both VERY good at it and you're both GREAT teachers. Unfortunately, although I'm fast, I have none of the teaching qualities that you and Betty have and that tends to dampen the teaching experience for me and the student.

You are 100% correct on that.

That's ok. I am an idiot who doesn't listen to instructors in any event. We would probably get along just fine. If you want, contact the DE chairs, get me dropped back for the event, then you can sign me off if you find me too annoying

I'm sure there are many blue students trying to get into the event that wouldn't be be too happy to have a blue run group slot used that way. The best course is to just leave things like they are. I'll sweat out the wait list in Red, TD in DC runs in White and we don't screw with Bob's already difficult job.

OK. Sounds fine to me. I was just trying to make my self useful, which is a pretty full time job. I just checked and I remain "pending" in white

When did that happen? Bob's been the registrar longer than anyone other that Marilyn Hickson I think.
