I am finally to a part that I have been planning for awhile now. I found this part extremely funny when I was planning it and writing this out. I hope that everyone enjoys this chapter. I know that the races are not how they are suppose to be, but I decided to do this my own way. I had an idea of how I thought that the races would be run. Also, because this is going to be a week long racing competition so bear with me.

"Hey I'll be back in a few," said Agura as she took off down the rows of many vehicles that arrived and were arriving.
"Spinner!" shouted Grace from where she stood inside of the tent.
"Hey Grace," Spinner said as he walked towards his friend. "Got any za here?"
"No, does it look like we brought pizza?" Grace asked. Sometimes she wondered about the older Cortez brother.
"So is Zoom here?" Grace asked.
With a deflated ego Spinner responded, "Yeah he's with Vert and the others. Hey where is Zeke? I figured that he would be here with you."
"He had to park Trucketta," Grace said with a sigh.
"Alien!" Zeke shouted.
"Oh no," Grace groaned as she took off towards her boss.
"Yo Zeke," Spinner shouted as he ran up to the two.
"He has a metal arm!" Zeke continued to shout.
The guy that Zeke was shouting about looked mortified. This caused Spinner to think fast and come up with an explanation. "No Zeke, it's not metal. He's obviously a major fan of Slug Bots of Goop World VI," Spinner said as he got in between Zeke and the stranger.
"Do you know where the registration table?" Wylde asked a passing stranger.
"Yes keep heading right down this path," said the girl that was decked out in green.
"Thanks," Wylde said as he continued down the road he was on. Wylde had started to get a little fidgety as he walked down the makeshift dirt road. He playing with his gloves and the bottom of his sleeves. The whole time he was nervous that people would see his arm, that he didn't notice that he had pushed up his sleeves out of nervous habit.
"Alien!" shouted a guy.
Wylde was so stunned that he had no idea what to say or do. The only thing that popped into his was, 'What am I going to do?'
"Yo Zeke," shouted a new comer as he ran up to him and the guy freaking out.
"He has a metal arm!" the same guy continued to shout.
"No Zeke, it's not metal. He's obviously a major fan of Slug Bots of Goop World IV," the new guy said. "He's obviously an avid fan of the game."
"What?" the guy named Zeke asked confused.
"Yeah, he's a fan of a video game," Spinner said. "Jeez Zeke, you need to play more video games."
"But," Zeke started to say.
"Hey, are you bringing up any za for later?" Spinner interjected. He could tell that Zeke was not going to drop the subject, so he decided to change the subject.
"What?" Zeke asked, his attention split. "Yes, I was going to bring some later and sell it by the slice."
"Cool well, make sure that you have two zas for us," Spinner said as he walked over to the new guy. "Grace a little help here," Spinner whispered to the girl standing right next to him.
"Hey Zeke, we need to get back and get ready for customers," Grace said as she started to walk towards the tent. "I think that we have customers."
"Customers?" Zeke shouted as he took off to his tent.
"Thanks Grace," Spinner said.
"No problem. By the way, tell Zoom he owes me for this and he can make it up by taking me to dinner," Grace said as she followed her boss.
"Thanks," Wylde said once Zeke was gone.
"No problem," Spinner said. "Name's Spinner."
"Wylde," Wylde replied.
"Cool arm by the way," Spinner said. "Where did you get it from? It's really cool."
"I had an accident. Look, thanks," Wylde said as he walked away.
"Hey man, I'm sorry," Spinner said as he ran to catch up.
"Whatever," Wylde said.
"Your arm is really cool though," Spinner said once again as he walked away.
"You okay big bro?" Sherman asked as spotted Spinner walking back towards the group.
"What?" Spinner asked as he snapped out of his daze.
6:30 a.m.
"Listen up! If you are picking up your forms, line on the right. If you are dropping off your form, line of the left. I need single file lines if you please," an announcer said as people started getting in line for their papers. "Deadline for registration for all races is at 8:00, so be sure to register by then."
8:00 a.m.
"But for now, and for those who are here, I'm going to explain the rules between the types of races. Both types of races will be on dirt tracks, so if you can't handle it, get out now. Now if you're serious about staying in these races, listen up," the same announcer started. "For the team races: first racer will race three times around our track, second racer will do the same, and the last racer must race a total of four laps."
"How do we know when to go?" came a shout from one of the racers.
"Shut up and let me finish," he said. "Now as I was saying, each racer must wait for his or her teammate to drive across our finish line before the next is a loud to take off. And before anyone interrupts, each team will be assigned a flag color. When someone from their team crosses the line the flag waver for that team will wave the flag. That is then the signal for the team member to then take off.
"Also each team will be timed. Every team will be timed, this way if you get second place you can still qualify and move up through the rankings. Now the individual races will work similarly. Each person must race four laps, and their laps will be timed. The better your times, the farther you will advance," the announcer finished.
"Okay it's time to begin," said a female announcer. "The first qualifier race is about to begin. I need the teams of RedZone, Teku, Fast Lane, Black Thorns, Slip Speed, and Battle Force 5. The race will start in ten minutes, so each team needs to report to the starting line immediately."
Yahoo, I made it to ten chapters. Wish me luck on many more chapters to come. P.S. comment on what you like and dislike. I'm here to listen.
