"Following the valve cover races will be a demonstration of  "Lucas
launching".  

Recognition can be given for highest  trajectory, best accuracy and
longest distance hurled (with a  catapult).  In keeping with FOT
tradition, there should be no rules or  limitations on one's creativity
other than how much he/she is willing to  spend and transport, plus the
usual safety concerns.  Since the event  would almost certainly need to
be held in the dark of night, providing  lighting (or fire) to one's
Lucas ammunition would be beneficial to  spectators and anyone trying to
keep from getting beaned by a  distributor.  
... uh, & just what is the airspeed of an unladen Lucas  distributor? ...
 
 & the obvious reply is...
 
...uh, point type or HEI unit?
