Ah, but was it a better than SEIV experience.
Edit: I just looked at a list of the other contenders and I must say they seem a bit primitive. Sure they might get into orbit, but most of them plan to parachute down again. One even launches from a balloon. I realise the actual prize isn't going to pay for development, so they mostly seem to be just an attempt to grab fame by getting in first and winning.
