200K in a 2-33 is grounds for a mandatory psychological examination.


Back in the mid 1970's, the Arizona Soaring Association's weekend race series had two classes. The "B" class was mostly for the 1-26, but Laszlo Horvath, proprietor of Estrella, would often compete in a 2-33, and do quite well. He also didn't like to use a trailer, so would soar to the various venues in the state.

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.
