Chris, had you thought about a timed race with the winner being the one with the best overall time? We could volunteers initially set up at the start, with say 5 or 10 racers starting at a time with the groups starting about a minute or so apart? I think it would make it more fair for those in contention to win and it would also make the start of the race MUCH safer than having 75 kites in close proximity to each other sprinting off of the start all at the same time.

If two or more riders got their kites/lines tangled in the fray, it could spell disaster for SEVERAL racers even if they weren't initially involved in the accident... Just food for thought.
