At States today we got about 10 seconds with a 6.2m ceiling (launched at 30 PSI though).

For those of you who have done this event how do you like it and do you think it is worthy of becoming a national event? I did this event in Wisconsin and thought it was pretty fun but rather simple and i think it is a good alternative to bottle rockets but I think their are much better building events.
