I almost ran the crawl once, but something else came up. It was a while back, early nineties. I think I had to run some event at the old Palm Beach fairgrounds instead. But I always wanted to run the crawl. I used to autocross with this guy who won fast time of day there. I forgot his name. He ran a 911SC with big bore pistons, wild cams and carbs. At the time that was all you needed. If I am ever back in South Florida with my car and that event is running, I might do it.

Here in Arizona, the Southern AZ guys run autocrosses in this old racecourse which is a lot like that road used in the Bay Bottom Crawl. Actually, it's even better. Like the crawl, single car width with trees in close proximity makes it very fun. Then there are the jumps which give you a little sunshine between the tires and the pavement. I consider it the best track in the Southwest. The only catch is the condition of the road which eats tires as if they are made of putty.
