All I remember was a lady Veterinarian from a couple towns over who would complain to the officials as soon as I showed up. Before my Deserter came along she always used to win her class (Under 2.5 liters) and was more than a little upset when she started losing (wicked pissed doesn't begin to describe it.....Vocal, too). She was good, but in a Dune Buggy, I had a driving brake and a lotta torque!

After they put me in that other class (all by myself, back then) all I could shoot for was fastest time of the day and then I was competing against someone with a Lotus Seven - My God, but that thing could handle an Autocross track... That's when it wasn't as much fun so I quit.
