We see the Golden Goose be golden twice more, before, like all empires, the great reign of the ATO Empire falls.  Plus, we see the birth of SAE&#8217;s 2-wheel bike, a mix of other interesting designs and methods for increasing speed, and the Men&#8217;s Dorms make history.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1960\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">1960<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Raceday<\/span>: Prelims on Friday, May 6 at 10:00am;

It was, and continues to be, a somewhat common refrain in the pages of the Tartan that Spring Carnival takes up too much time and money.&nbsp; But in late 1959, Student Government took it to a new level.&nbsp; Throughout multiple Student Congress meetings, they discussed ways to \u201cfix\u201d Spring Carnival, as they all agreed that preparation for Carnival was too time consuming and expensive.&nbsp; There was also an argument made that Carnival was for the Greeks, and that the independent community did not derive much enjoyment from the weekend.&nbsp; However, it doesn\u2019t look like any decisions were ever made about how to fix these issues; it was merely something for people to complain about. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>ATO Regains Their Form<\/strong>.&nbsp; It was a warm, sunny day on Friday as the teams took to the course.&nbsp; And ATO was intent on proving that they belonged back on top, a year after their unfortunate Pacing DQ.&nbsp; We don\u2019t know exactly how many teams entered the race in 1960, but ATO wasted no time showing that they were in a class of their own.&nbsp; With Golden Goose in tow, ATO blitzed their way to a top Prelim time of 2:27.&nbsp; Lagging behind in 2<sup>nd<\/sup> during the Prelims was PiKA in 2:32.4. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Men\u2019s Dorms Makes History<\/strong>.&nbsp; The biggest surprise of Raceday 1960, however, came courtesy of the Men\u2019s Dorms.&nbsp; For the first time in history, an independent organization made the Finals!&nbsp; With a strong showing on Friday of 2:35.4, the Men\u2019s Dorms snagged the third and final spot in the Finals. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Rain Hinders Finals<\/strong>.&nbsp; Saturday\u2019s Finals had some unanticipated drama in the form of weather.&nbsp; Rain fell on Saturday morning, leaving the course damp.&nbsp; But the races went on anyway!&nbsp; The result was a significantly slower Finals.&nbsp; ATO maintained their lead and earned their 7<sup>th<\/sup> victory in 8 years, but they did so with a final time of 2:34.5, 7.5 seconds slower than their Prelim time.&nbsp; The Men\u2019s Dorms, meanwhile, moved up to 2<sup>nd<\/sup>, running roughly equal to their Prelim performance with a 2:36.0.&nbsp; PiKA, who may have been hampered by wheel troubles in the wet weather, had to settle for 3<sup>rd<\/sup> with a time of 2:41.8.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns has-2-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>DU Taps a Unique Buggy<\/strong>.&nbsp; DU rolled out one of the most unique, and most memorable, buggies in history in 1960.&nbsp; It wasn\u2019t a useful buggy on the course, but it may have been a useful buggy at the victory celebration later!&nbsp; The buggy was essentially a keg of beer mounted on four wheels.&nbsp; As the May 11, 1960 Tartan writes, \u201cfrom the records of the time recorded it looks like the DUs must have tapped that keg some place near [Phipps] and then started the race again.\u201d&nbsp; The Tartan also remarked that SAE\u2019s buggy finished well behind the leads \u201cin spite of a 3 horsepower motor and a set of blue headlights.\u201d <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/1960-DU-Pork-Barrel-or-Beer-Keg-Buggy-from-1960-Thistle.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"295\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/1960-DU-Pork-Barrel-or-Beer-Keg-Buggy-from-1960-Thistle-295x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5395\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/1960-DU-Pork-Barrel-or-Beer-Keg-Buggy-from-1960-Thistle-295x300.jpg 295w, https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/1960-DU-Pork-Barrel-or-Beer-Keg-Buggy-from-1960-Thistle.jpg 673w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 295px) 100vw, 295px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">1960 &#8211;

Of course, not every team was thrilled about SAE&#8217;s 2-wheeled design.  Originally, SAE&#8217;s bike was scheduled to compete in Heat 3 against ATO and DU.  However, those two organizations objected to SAE&#8217;s inclusion in their heat over concerns about the &#8220;radical&#8221; new design.

The ATO team consisted of Larry Ritchi, Al Patz, Bob Nowak, Mugsie Stevens, and Bill Novack, and was driven by Doug Sanderson. PiKA, with Shark\/S-1, finished 2<sup>nd<\/sup> with a time of 2:32.8, behind the pushing of Bill Elsey, Jim Jubenski, Jim Sharkey, Bob Wolfe, and Bob Meyn and the driving of Lou Caramella.&nbsp; SAE\u2019s Bike pulled off a shocking upset, finishing 3<sup>rd<\/sup> with a time of 2:33.8, with Paul Pheneger, Bob Miller, Frank Jones, Bill Faircloth and Deates Lahanas providing the pushing and Curt Eaves doing the driving.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>ATO Pulls off the Double<\/strong>. Winning the race is one thing, but ATO took it one step further in 1961.

Heat selection was completed on March 7, 1962, a full 2 months (!) before Raceday.&nbsp; In addition, for the first time on record, each buggy was identified by a specified number, providing us with a slightly easier way to identify buggies (of course, that only works if the buggies included their number on them; not all seemed to, or at least the numbers are not always visible in the photos).&nbsp; The numbers appear to have been selected by the organizations themselves, and some of the numbers would eventually stick and become the names of these buggies.&nbsp; 19 buggies entered the race.&nbsp; The full heat list, with lanes, is as follows:\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>(Lane 1) PiKA (#2); (2) ATO (#69); (3) SigNu (#3)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>(1) SAE (#6); (2) Beta (#0);

Since the heat selections were conducted so far in advance, it\u2019s no surprise that not everyone made it.&nbsp; Ultimately, 4 teams had to scratch from rolling on Raceday.&nbsp; DTD\u2019s #8, SigNu\u2019s #22, DU\u2019s #28.5, and KapSig\u2019s #18 were all scratched from Raceday, leaving just 15 to compete. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>One Fraternity&#8217;s Poor Design<\/strong>.&nbsp; Buggies in the 1960s tended to be particularly small and cramped (just take a look at the Golden Goose).&nbsp; This may have helped with speed and aerodynamics, but not driver ability.&nbsp; The April 1964 edition of the Carnegie Technical tells a tale that in 1962, one fraternity\u2019s designer forgot to put padding in the cockpit of the buggy.&nbsp; The incessant pounding and heat caused the driver to black out and the buggy careened into a curve.&nbsp; The driver was uninjured in the crash.&nbsp; The article does not specify the organization involved, but only 1 buggy was a DNF in 1962 \u2013 DU\u2019s #28.&nbsp; So we can only assume that this was a DU design flaw. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Tires are<\/strong>\u2026<strong>cooled?<\/strong>&nbsp; Nowadays, most teams improve their speeds by heating tires (a strategy that began as early as the 1950s).&nbsp; But the August 1963 edition of Road and Track Magazine, which included an article called \u201cGrand Prix of Pittsburgh\u201d, noted that in 1962, an unknown fraternity actually tried to <em>cool<\/em> their tires.&nbsp; The fraternity used dry ice to cool the tires in an attempt to eliminate the energy lost from the internal friction of the flexing rubber.&nbsp; Without knowing which team it was, we don\u2019t know how successful this turned out to be. But our guess?&nbsp; Not very. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Prelim Results<\/strong>.&nbsp; Not only do we know the heats, but we also have the full prelim results!&nbsp; These will be added to the History tab once we\u2019ve updated the backend databases, but until then we\u2019re including them here.&nbsp; It\u2019s interesting to see how the heats weren\u2019t exactly spaced out, and Heat 1 appears to have been the top teams, and teams got progressively slower as the heats got later; in fact, the 2 of the top 3 buggies came out of Heat 1.\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>ATO \u2013 Golden Goose (#69) (2:26.4)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SAE \u2013 Bike (#6) (2:33.1)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>PiKA \u2013 Shark\/S-1 (#2) (2:33.9)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ATO \u2013 Andy II (#44) (2:35.5)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SAE &#8211; #7 (2:39.1)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Beta &#8211; #00 (2:41.4)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SigNu &#8211; #3 (2:43.5)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Beta &#8211; #0 (2:44.2)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>PhiKap &#8211; #23 (2:44.2)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>PhiKap &#8211; #77 (2:47.4)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>PiKA &#8211; #17 (2:50.2)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Theta Xi &#8211; #3.14 (2:54.5)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Beta Sigma Rho &#8211; #88 (2:56.1)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Men\u2019s Dorms &#8211; #11 (3:02.1)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Finals Brought Minimal Excitement<\/strong>.&nbsp; Whatever excitement existed during the Finals disappeared once the buggies hit the freeroll.&nbsp; The front hills stayed relatively close, but ATO&#8217;s Golden Goose opened up in the freeroll and pulled far ahead of its opponents.&nbsp; PiKA\u2019s Shark was second and closed the gap a little on the backhills, but never got that close, with ATO ultimately winning by approximately 15 yards (a 3 second gap).&nbsp; PiKA moved up from the Prelims and finished 2<sup>nd<\/sup>, while SAE\u2019s Bike was another couple of seconds back in 3<sup>rd<\/sup>. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>1962 Photos<\/strong>.

It also included a new brake test, yet another vehicle on the course, and a <em>very<\/em> interesting exhibition heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li> <strong>New Brake Test Introduced<\/strong>.&nbsp; Brakes were not a new buggy requirement in 1963, but Sweepstakes did implement a new method of testing the brakes.&nbsp; During Design Competition (which began at 7:30am on Friday, May 3), each buggy was put on a 15 degree plywood ramp and was required to remain stationary when the brakes were applied.&nbsp; Of the 15 buggies that reportedly entered on Raceday, 6 of them failed this test after 2 attempts.&nbsp; Luckily for them, the test was administered hours before the race, so 5 of the 6 were able to repair their braking systems and pass the test prior to the start of Prelims.&nbsp; The 6<sup>th<\/sup> buggy used a drag brake, which was ineffective when put on plywood but worked when the buggy was placed on pavement, and therefore it was granted an exemption and allowed to race. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Men\u2019s Dorms Incident<\/strong>.&nbsp; According to the April 1964 Carnegie Technical, the Men\u2019s Dorms had an issue during early morning practices in 1963.&nbsp; During the freeroll, the buggy encountered an issue and the steering sheared off, causing the buggy to crash \u201cthrough the turn and sail out into the Schenley Park underbrush.\u201d&nbsp; The driver was thankfully uninjured. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Major Upset in Prelims<\/strong>.&nbsp; For the first time in several years, the Prelims were the source of major excitement.&nbsp; ATO\u2019s Golden Goose was easily expected to earn ATO its 10th win in 11 years.&nbsp; And as the buggy traveled through the Freeroll in the 6<sup>th<\/sup> and final Prelim heat of the day, it looked like that would be the case, as it was putting up an \u201cextraordinary\u201d time.&nbsp; But with greater speed comes greater risk, and as the buggy turned into the Chute, it carried a little too much speed and spun out.&nbsp; The buggy made a 540 degree spin and sheared rubber off of its wheels.&nbsp; Unlike today, the buggy was still allowed to continue, but the Hill 3 pusher, who was waiting in his normal spot, had to run down to the chute to pick up the buggy, costing ATO a significant amount of time.&nbsp; The result is that ATO\u2019s Golden Goose finished last (of the finishing buggies), in a time of 3:11.45.&nbsp; DU, meanwhile, tried out a special heated oil that was applied to their bearings moments before the race to improve their speed, but it doesn\u2019t appear to have helped enough to advance them to the Finals, as they only finished 4th. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>More Vehicle Scares<\/strong>.&nbsp; PiKA\u2019s Shark was cruising along in its Prelim heat, well ahead of the competition, when suddenly it wasn\u2019t in the lead anymore!&nbsp; According to the April 1964 Carnegie Technical, a car had slipped through the Panther Hollow Bridge barricade and drove out in front of the buggy.&nbsp; Driver Ed Escallon was forced to swerve in order to avoid the car, and the swerve caused at least one tire to come off the ground.&nbsp; The buggy traveled 50 feet before it was able to get back on 4 wheels. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Prelim Results<\/strong>.&nbsp; Of the 15 buggies that supposedly started, only 11 buggies ended up actually finishing the Prelims.&nbsp; We don\u2019t know what happened to the other 4, but we do know the full results of the 11 that finished.&nbsp; And as surprising as it was to not see ATO atop the leaderboard, if may have been even more surprising to see who was.&nbsp; The Prelim results are as follows:\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Beta (00) \u2013 2:34.1<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>PiKA (Shark\/S-1) \u2013 2:34.4<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SAE (Bike) \u2013 2:34.53<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>DU \u2013 2:36.4<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ATO (Andy II) \u2013 2:39.8<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SigNu (Lizard) \u2013 2:42.15<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>PiKA (Cheetah) \u2013 2:44.6<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>DU \u2013 2:47.2<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>PhiKap \u2013 2:56.4<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SigNu \u2013 2:57.57<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>ATO (Golden Goose) \u2013 3:11.45<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>As a note, we have a photo of DTD on the backhills, but they don\u2019t appear in the final results, so it seems likely that they were DQ\u2019d for some unknown reason. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Finals Results<\/strong>.&nbsp; The Finals of 1963 were very exciting, which isn\u2019t surprising given the 0.5 seconds separating the 3 teams in Prelims.&nbsp; PiKA\u2019s Shark ended up victorious, and it seems as though they had the lead the whole way.&nbsp; The battle for 2<sup>nd<\/sup>, however, was incredibly tight.&nbsp; Beta\u2019s 3-wheeled &#8220;00&#8221; led through the freeroll, but SAE\u2019s 2-wheeled bike had the edge on the hills.&nbsp; SAE\u2019s Hill 5 pusher managed to get their buggy in front of Beta\u2019s about 100 yards from the finish line, and led to SAE taking 2<sup>nd<\/sup>, with Beta falling to 3<sup>rd<\/sup>. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns has-2-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>SigNu\u2019s Impressive Design<\/strong>.&nbsp;

SigNu built an entirely new suspension system for the buggy, and the tires were specially designed and made of fire truck rubber.&nbsp; These unique features were enough to earn Lizard its first Design Competition win. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>We have an Exhibition Heat!  With Women!<\/strong>.&nbsp;  The Tartan never mentions a special exhibition heat occurring in 1963, focusing instead on the official results.&nbsp; But Road &amp; Track Magazine was interested in the entire day, and so it didn\u2019t go unnoticed when a motley crew of people and teams decided to put together a \u201ccomical\u201d heat.&nbsp; According to the article, \u201cto make the race more fun and less intense there was one heat for comical buggies.\u201d&nbsp; The three teams were Kappa Kappa Gamma, who borrowed a practice buggy from PiKA, TriDelt, who decorated a wheelbarrow, and SigNu, who entered a \u201csailboat\u201d made from an old bathtub, with concrete wheels and a sail.&nbsp; SigNu was in front and looked like they were going to win, but apparently the concrete wheels \u201cdisintegrated\u201d just 10 feet from the finish line, and the sailboat was too heavy to drag across the finish line without wheels.&nbsp; As a result, Kappa passed them and emerged victorious.&nbsp; You may think this exhibition race was fake (maybe a belated April Fools\u2019 joke), and I questioned whether it was legit as well.&nbsp; Luckily, the Road &amp; Track Magazine decided to provide photographic evidence of SigNu\u2019s \u201cbuggy\u201d.  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/1963-SigNu-Lizzard-Suspension-from-04-24-1964-Carnegie-Technical.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"296\" src=\"https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/1963-SigNu-Lizzard-Suspension-from-04-24-1964-Carnegie-Technical-300x296.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5417\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/1963-SigNu-Lizzard-Suspension-from-04-24-1964-Carnegie-Technical-300x296.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/1963-SigNu-Lizzard-Suspension-from-04-24-1964-Carnegie-Technical-768x758.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/1963-SigNu-Lizzard-Suspension-from-04-24-1964-Carnegie-Technical.jpg 838w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">1963 &#8211; SigNu&#8217;s Lizard includes a brand new suspension system (from the April 1964 Carnegie Technical)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div style=\"height:109px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/1963-SigNu-Exhibition-Buggy-from-Road-and-Track-Magazine-August-1963.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"256\" src=\"https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/1963-SigNu-Exhibition-Buggy-from-Road-and-Track-Magazine-August-1963-300x256.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5416\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/1963-SigNu-Exhibition-Buggy-from-Road-and-Track-Magazine-August-1963-300x256.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/1963-SigNu-Exhibition-Buggy-from-Road-and-Track-Magazine-August-1963-768x655.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cmubuggy.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/1963-SigNu-Exhibition-Buggy-from-Road-and-Track-Magazine-August-1963.jpg 853w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">1963 &#8211; SigNu enters their &#8220;Sailboat&#8221;, made out of a bathtub, in an exhibition against TriDelt and Kappa (from the August 1963 Road &amp; Truck Magazine)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>1963 Photos<\/strong>.
