Some things I remember about the 2001 event:

Pugs had the best time for quite a while, in a stock Spitfire on skinny street tires. We ended up using a small, dirty lot instead of the big lot at the high school down
the road, shucks.

It was my first event with the 8" rims on Killer. The wheels stuck out about two inches further than the wheels I had been running, and I wasn't used to them yet.
I clipped lots of cones due to that extra width.

I let Tom Blanchard, the fellow running the event, take Killer out on course. About the time I remember that I hadn't turned on the fuel pump he sputtered to a stop in
the middle of the course.  Oops.
