Some friends of mine enter this race every year.
They have a big septic tank that is painted yellow, has portholes cut out on the side, a screw (propeller), and is called the Yellow Submarine.

They usually win a prize for the most creative cheating or something like that.
They bribe judges or sneak off course for a quick short-cut or other sorts of things.

Also, don't forget, this is the same town that just made it a crime to cooperate with the federal government's Patriot Act.
