Turtle racing not what you think

[Buicknut Starkey]

This is a cross between an Index race and a Chinese firedrill. Using a fourdoor vehicle, the index will be either 60 or 75 seconds (we need to make a few test passes to see what's practical.) It will requie four people to be in the car. Between the 60-foot clocks and the 330-foot clocks, the driver will stop the car and put it in Park, then the three passengers will exit and run clockwise around the car and return to their seats. After crossing the 330-foot clocks, the car will be parked again, then all three passengers exit and run counter-clockwise around the car. Cars will launch on a five-tenths Pro Tree. Winners will get a gift certificate for four meals at a local restaurant.
Have FUN!
It sounds like they may be trying this in Minot. Maybe could be a race for the car show weekend.

I'd try it. Sounds fun.

Perhaps Be a great way to get local people out of the stands for a good time as well.

I was thinking maybe town businesses also.

If ya got the local business to get involved the winner could have some pretty big bragging rights.. could get some pretty interesting grudge races happening..
