Buggy Wrap
Warm, sunny weather allowed two full days of racing this year and long standing records were left in the dust as both Pi Kappa Alpha (PiKA) and Student Dormitory Council (SDC) men's teams set new course speed records on the way to first and second place finishes.

In the women's division, SDC’s Women’s A set a new course record on its way to a first place finish, with PiKA’s Women’s A team rolling to a strong second. For full coverage, see the Tartan Pillbox.
