Ever since I've read about Rocky's mirror-khana, I've been very jealous.
I would love to have a place to stage one. I'm having a hard enough time
with finding suitable parking lots.
If I were doing a mirror-khana as a charity event, I'd make it a single
elimination tournament with the ability to buy back into the match for $x.
Add the rule that if you lose to the same person twice, you're out for
good. Apply the rest of Rocky's rules to the event.

the more I think about it, my "three-for-free" rule in the Mirror Khana is
sort of a Mulligan rule.
Here's how it works. Mirror Khana is the event that uses no clocks. Two
drivers run heads-up against each other (one starting halfway around the
course from the other -- no wheel-to-wheel here -- from a common s/f line
that crosses two parallel straightaways). First one back to his starting
point wins.
with no clocks, whaddya do about pylons? Well, we allow three for free.
You
can hit three cones without penalty, the fourth cone is a DNF (but a
driver
who hits 4 on the run will still win if the other guy hits 5).
