1. TEAM ALPHA SUPER AWESOME COOL DYNAMITE WOLF SQUADRONTeam Alpha super awesome Finished: 23rd Just look at the name, just look at the machine, and look at the fact he has taken all his hands off the mother flipping controls as he went over the final jump. Yes, the automotive designers Team Alpha Super Awesome Dynamite Wolf Squadron certainly took the minimalist view when they designed their soapbox - nothing more than a go kart with a seat and a bit of a fin at the front - they probably didn't get a result as high up the table as they would have liked but I bet the driver is pleased, especially with the lack of body work, that he didn't go head over heels after the last jump. Of course the slowness could be pinned to the heavy long name weighing it down but I think that just improves the whole experiences and proves that the over the top, Gillette razor like, naming system will win out the day eventually.
