Superformance dominated the front rows on the Parade Lap, a domination that continued throughout the event. Superformance was well represented in participation and well represented in the final standings at the end of the event. There were 90 cars entered in 1999, up from 63 in 1998. Of the 90, 19 were Superformance Mk III's. When the dust settled, Superformance dominated the winners circle. Of the six top trophies, Overall Top Dog, three class Top Dogs, King of the Drags, and King of the Autocross, Superformance took four.

• Bob Olthoff - Overall Top Dog
• Bob Olthoff - Pro Top Dog (tie)
• Clay Gould - Pure Street Top Dog
• Dennis Olthoff - King of the Autocross

Superformance also dominated the class standings. Class winners were:

• David Sugg - Pro A Autocross
• Dennis Olthoff - Pro B Autocross
• Jerry Mullins - Street A Autocross
• Steve Miller - Pure Street A Autocross
• Gary Grenny - Street B Drags
• Clay Gould - Pure Street A Drags
• Kenny Brown - Pure Street A Road Course

The classes were Pro, Street, and Pure Street based primarily on tires and street legality. The sub-classes were A for big blocks, B for small blocks, and C for 4 and 6 cylinder engines.

Run and Gun 1999 was by all accounts a little chaotic. The rules seemed a bit fluid. The number of events and participants overwhelmed the tight schedule. Completing all events would have been possible only if everything went perfectly. It didn’t.

The scoring was supposed to be based on combined drag race, autocross, and road course results. However, most competitors did not get to run the road course, so scoring was based on drags and autocross only.

As a tribute to the nineteen Superformance owners that made the trek and fought the good fight, I have painstakingly reconstructed the results of Run and Gun 1999 from the rather ambiguous reporting done in the February 2000 issue of Kit Car Illustrated. I will not duplicate their coverage of the event here. I will however add the one thing that they omitted - the standings.

So check out  the Autocross, Drags, Road Course, Class Top gun, and Overall Top gun results.
