<VV> hoe down fun!

[Frank DuVal]

It is held near the big town of DeWitt in Dinwiddie County, VA.  And 
yes, there are no tire restictions. I was running new 185/70R13's and it 
was like I was driving a PG with no transmission fluid, slipped the 
whole course. I wanted FOUR snow tires. Maybe even studs.
