Season's
Car Races
On Tap
By BILL DUNNE
Staff Writer
A new social function has ap
peared on the campus in the form
of the recently organized Colum
bia Sports Car Club.
The club has planned a series
of sports car events during the
coming season that promise to be
most entertaining social events.
Co-eds will got a chance to show
off their new spring wardrobes
at any of a number of rallies,
races, and gymkhanas.
A rallye is an event in which
contestants are given a route to
follow and an average speed to
maintain. The entrants who come
closest to doing this are the win
ners. The entry is composed of a
car, a driver and the navigator,
the latter usually being a female.
Gymkhana
A gymk-hana is a test of a
driver and navigator dexterity
and skill. The event is run against
time and the person who performs
in the shortest amount of time is
declared the winner, all other
things being equal.
A race is almost completely
self-explanatory with the big ex
ception that sports car races are
usually run on regular or simu
lated roads rather than ovals.
The big event that everybody
who is interested in sports cars
is waiting for, is coming up on
March 19-22. This is the Interna
tional Twelve Hour Grand Prix
of Endurance at Sebring, F-la.
This is the event where the latest
in European sports fashions are
usually displayed for the first
time in the year in the United
States.
International Grand Prix
A good many students who
have sports cars or are inter
ested in same are planning on
making the trek to Sebring. Some
attending last year were Bill
Gammage, Buddy Gailliard and
Charlie Simons.
At last count there were four
full car-loads planning on being
Florida bound within the next
two weeks. A big local event of
the season will be the semi
annual race sponsored by the
Sports Car Club of South Caro
lina at the road race course in
Chester. There will be a number
of sports cars entered in this
race by students from USC.
This club annually sponsors
two races at the Chester course.
In the usual course of events
there is one in April and one in
October. The spring race this
year will be on Sunday, April 19.
Fore those diehards who never
leave Columbia, the Columbia
Sports Club is tentatively plan
ning a race at the old Columbia
track, once the most popular
sports car site in South Carolina.
Here's hoping to see you at one
or all of these interesting events.
