According to the pilot, he was departing runway 33 when the tail came up and went "hard right" and the airplane veered to the left. The pilot attempted to correct with the addition of brake and rudder; however, the airplane departed the runway to the left and nosed over resulting in substantial damage. Winds around the time of the accident were recorded as 230 degrees at 3 knots. An examination of the airplane systems revealed no anomalies.
Probable Cause: the pilot's failure to maintain directional control during takeoff.
