New to me as well. Crack the whip comes to mind.

A few comments. You do not have to be crazy but it helps. Just not mandatory. I noticed on the first go around with only three cars I did not see any side curtain used on the visitors car. Probably I just missed it.

No beer was involved as all the Canadian ladies still had their clothes on. You should see what we do when actually drinking.

Sponsored by the local funeral home. They must have outbid the chiropractor.
