The T3sk3y Defenestrator

The first two stops on the 2005 Formula D� circuit took place on Saturday evening. After a short introduction to the rules – and some Triple Kung Pao – the green flag was waved on the inaugural races for the series.

The first race of the series took place on the famed Zandevoort course in the Netherlands. Pole position was taken by the number one car on the Rothman’s Honda team driven by Sunshine. Sunshine took off to an early lead, dogged around the first three turns by Coleman and Lance Fontaine from Team America (F’ck YEAH!). Bringing up the back half of the pack were both cars from team BlueStreak driven by Dougie and Jonesey. Last out of the gate was the number two Rothman’s car driven by Flash.

By turn three, Team America (F’ck YEAH!) managed to hold down the one and two spots followed closely by Sunshine. By this point, the leaders were a solid 30 squares ahead of the remainder of the pack.

On the last turn before the final straightaway, Sunshine executed a perfect turn in fifth gear and was able to finish the race with a 25 square lead. Dougie from Team BlueStreak was able to squeeze by both drivers from Team America (F’ck YEAH!) for second place as Coleman and Lance were stuck in 4th gear in the final straightaway.
