Where'd you find the info? All I heard about this was Jeff Glorioso yelling
in my ear while I tried to navigate a very wet Coliseum course during our
first event.
"Shauna won another race!!"
"Great, Jeff - do you remember how to turn a 180 spin into a 360?"

Imagine! 70!

Lessee - you make Y chromosome deficiency a criterion for entry, and you end
up with all women? Why are you surprised by this?

How PC of them to avoid the traditional swimsuit competition. So actual
ability to drive a car is worth a whole 50%. That's fantastic. It has kind
of a symmetry to it, y'know? Only 50% of the human race is eligible, so
only 50% of the results count...
I guess, one more time, I just don't get it.
