Hi Marshall .. the reason they don't like Unlimited is because it's
not counted in the club competition .. Wayne pretty much stated
explicitly at MUD last year that his main goal was to get SCCC into
the contest club standings. Sucks for us regular rovers, but the
league doesn't seem to care much ..
