Speed World with the Staff

Torrential rains drenched all of us as we made a mad dash from our vehicles into Speed World. We had just set out the Boston pizzas, ready to start our party when the power failed and we were left in the stuffy, blackened mezzanine of Speed World. We attempted to eat by cel phone light for about 10 minutes while the Speed World staff located a flashlight for us. It took about half an hour for the power to resume and then it was racing time!
Drivers were given their instructions on what to do (and more importantly what not to do) in order to win the 45-minute Le Mans-style race.
Ed G. was spotted giving teammate, Lyn, the final race instructions and reminding him not to text while driving.
The race was on and the competition was fierce as rubber hit the road.
Teammates watched, cheered and kept an eye on the TV screen for updated results.
Despite a lap deduction due to Melvin's speedy entry into the pits, nearly taking out the race official, Chad, Elisabeth and Melvin took home the checkered flag by half a lap!
Other highlights from the race included:
Fastest Male Lap Time - Isaak
Fastest Female Lap Time - Elisabeth
Most Spin Outs - the man in green, Vic
