That's understandable, considering what it takes to put a
2-33 on the trailer.

Many years ago, my club used to drag a 2-33 around to little
fun meets in our area. Another guy and I actually won a day
in our 2-33. There was a K-6 in the class that finished a lot
faster, but we kicked butt on handicap.
