Jan Sears, Boris Elpiner and I designed Saturday's course by the light of our
headlights Friday night. There was one initial skidpad that turned out smaller

It's always easy to do the second day, Larry.

remember that because Jim Martin

Maybe you'd remember it more acurately if you ate something...
