Step 1
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the macaroni, and cook until tender, about 8 minutes. Rinse under cold
water and drain.
Step 2
In a large bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, mustard, salt and pepper. Stir in the onion, celery, green pepper,
carrot, pimentos and macaroni. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving, but preferably overnight.
