flag station with the flag from the other flag station. Flag hangs are awarded in

Edgard,

Podia voltar a ter por aqui né??
Porque acabou???

Todos os campeonataos brasileiros de 1990 a 1998 (ao menos o último que participei) eram extamente assim.....mas com aprimoramento da tecnologia e uma ávida sede por uma forma mais competitiva criaram as competições no estilo do CBP, como bem relatou o nosso amigo coelho do pinta a pua em outro tópico.

Nada impede que organizemos algo semelhante ao que tínhamos antes.
