This issue isn't specifically addressed in the rules. There is nothing that recognizes record trials flying after a contest, just the continuation of a series of flights after a contest, which doesn't pertain to indoors.

Will there be a separate sanction for the extra time at Kent? If so, the two-timers rule would be in effect. If not, There could be a challenge to the legitimacy of any records set, I think.
