if that's true, then SDBA can start getting teams to bid for the "winning" lanes.

lameness!

haha i dun quite understand what you're trying to say eh?
i mean do you even know tt fastest timing will be placed in 3rd lane and so on?
i guess NP was just lucky or by coincidental 4th best timing in both the ivp and mens open which they topped last year right?

in a race where lanes are tight, anything can happen, anybody can win. So i see there's no point in putting the best timings in 3rd lane and so forth. that's just my opinion.

even if you row your hardest, a dragon head/tail falls off or your rudder breaks, it's too bad. you would need more than lanes placement to win.

not to mention abt the different weight of the 10crew boat. Some of it are more heavier.
Pray hard your team dont kana the Purple colur " Pinnacle " boat.

but then again, maybe it's not so much of lanes or the weight of the boats either.

i believe NP won both the IVP and national opens last year because they were really strong.
