$10 per entrant, for the first 3 models. Then it's $2 for each additional model with only 1 model per category.
We believe that this limitation will help us to work within a smaller space, plus, it helps avoid sweeps in any category.
We will follow judging guidelines and regulations as described in the IPMS/USA competition handbook available online at www.ipmsusa.org. Categories have been set up to match IPMS guidelines where possible. The head judge reserves the right to split. A No Sweeps rule is in effect. A unique winner will be selected within each category for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place awards. The contest is open to all scale models except those winning a 1st, 2nd or 3rd place finish at the IPMS Nationals or a 1st place finish at an IPMS Regional contest.
Registration 10:00am to Noon.
