No team got H 26 (can't U when not onto, during RI "1").  Two teams got C 49 (very early use of RI 12), and two teams got S 46 (onto "something"). Props to car 5 who recorded CMs near the letters B N S E M at the top of the score sheet. It wasn't scored, but it might be a gimmick in the future! Also, apologies to car 5 if we forgot to give you RP Slip 1 regarding visit Reinert. It didn't affect your place, but maybe you deserve 10 more points. Many teams commented that Rengstorff was a busy street, which is true.  A lot has changed in 40 years.  Opinions varied on the "put down a number" gimmicks, and also "onto something". We were delighted to see familiar faces after over a year, plus quite a few new faces. Also we were very happy that John's family could attend. Thanks for joining us!  The next planned event is Talk Like a Pirate! on October 2. This event features a self-paced tutorial for the first 5 RIs, which then returns to the start for Q&A, instead of a traditional rallye school.  Plus Booty, and lots of R.
