STOL Practice in a 1946 Cessna 140

Just practicing some short field because... I'm planning on flying to Chesaning, MI in the morning for the Great Lake STOL Contest at Howard Nixon Memorial Airport - 50G in Cesaning, MI. It's my first go, but they have a sub 100HP class! Will I win??? Not in a Cessna 140! I mean... I'll be competing with Taylorcrafts, Champs, Cubs, and the like, but I'll have a blast regardless.

If you're wanting to estimate my takeoffs or landings, cone spacing was 200 FT. My best guesses are around 300ft each, but I think I can get a little heavier on the brakes ;)
