Airport... buncha cones... which form a "track" which you have to go through without hitting any cones... without getting lost... and trying to get the best time while doing all that...

Answer Sheet. No peeking!!! I haven't done it yet myself, mainly because I can't get up early einough in the a.m. to make it to the drivers' meeting and walk the course. I will someday..... Mostly I hang at our house and welcome people, while I'm carving the pumpkin and making pasta salad!

Re: Pumpkin Carve 2008
so if Jerry is running his own SVX does that mean OT will be competing??? Also. Di, with the way you drive, it is better that you don't race.... You might just make all of us look bad
