Well this is a surprise. At the Canungra Classic. At the competition that is flying from the Durand's launch, they are using OzGAP 2005 (maybe they don't even know this) and there are no leading points. There are no leading points for pilots who don't make goal. They may think that they are using GAP 2011, but that is just a label that signifies nothing. They are using OzGAP 2005. Arrival time points (that is special arrival time points) that are equal - approximately - to the sum of Leading Points and Arrival Position Points.
This is extremely amusing to me who has gone through so many "discussions" with Jonny and others regarding these scoring formulas.
You'll also note that Paris (now living in New Zealand but apparently still flying for the US) is no longer flying the Ukrainian Aeros glider, but an Australian-made Moyes.

It wasn't a 1000 point day because the nominal time is an hour and a half and Steve got to the goal in an hour and twenty one minutes. The average distance flown was 41 km, and with the nominal distance set at a sport class or weak site 40 km, that was more than enough to have the distance validity equal to 1. Given that we assume an average speed of 40 km/h with an hour and a half nominal time you might expect the nominal distance to be at least 60 km.
But what do I know? I'm not there.
