'team dangerous tea lady stolen'
band aid team dangerous have recruited maureen as their new tea lady. team principle bella said 'i wish doris every success, but it's a terrible shame she had to go to the opposition. needless to say, we think maureen will be an excellent replacement, as she has knowledge of herbal teas that doris could only dream of.' in another development, rumours have surfaced about a possible third driver for team dangerous. alex tagliani is being mentioned, along with helio castro neves. however, if no decision is reached, bella may strech to another team and a second franchise. proposed sponsorship comes from elastoplast, you build 'em, we destroy 'em demolition firm, and bizarrely, the care bears. |

MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING........
WESCAN RACING, in an effort to remain in the news when nothing much is happening, today made the following announcements;
The current "no punting or spearing" agreement between Paul and Michael will be extended to include new member "Tags" Tagliani. Alex has also agreed to act as a gofer for our senior drivers, in return for the sharing of technical information, and first dibs on pit babe Caprice Bourrett. Due to some bad press on the home front regarding the teams apparently sexist attitude, Wescan has hired a "pit boy" to counter these accusations. Speedvision commentator and former SCCA racer Dorsey Schroeder will be the teams new "racing liason", responsible for maintaining team peace and goodwill everywhere. The team is also pleased to announce an agreement with SONY, who has agreed to supply the team with Playstations and a full menu of Racing games for practicing on off days. |

The Gonzo Approach to Training and Development Lesson One
Press Release: Team Aggression Maximisation.
Team Aggression Maximisation race strategist and all round "out there guy" Hunter S Thompson has developed the ultimate in focussing techniques for our drivers Paul Tracey and Mikey Andretti. It involves the bannishment of all wives, girl friends, mistresses, tea ladies, pit babes etc from the training camp being held in the Simpson Desert in inland Australia. The NO SEX rule is in force until the first race of the season. The major testosterone enhancing feature of lesson one is to have the only woman within 1000 square miles (me) parade around daily in the patented "fear and loathing" G string dining suit whilst reading pieces from one of Hunter's journals. When the agression factor reaches 100% saturation - to let off steam the whole crew gets loaded (literally) on spirits and amphetamines and walks out to the porch to shoot rounds into the wilderness from gold plated 44 Magnums. Team Aggression Maximisation "We're Gunning For Ya" Love Pamela Anderson Lee etc etc |

Love the website, Karma Racing!
----------------- FROM THE RACE COMMISSIONER'S DESK [The Commissioner having gone down the pub for a quick one or several] 1. After some work on the spreadsheets for the 2001 Racing Season, it was realised that no rules had been made regarding points for cars and engines. Therefore, it is proposed that these categories be scored at the end of the season, with points being awarded according to the finishing of the engine and chassis manufacturers in the Constructors' Championship, e.g. 10 points for a top finish, 5 for a second place finish and 2 for a third place finish. Suggestions are solicited if this doesn't suit the membership. 2. Suggestions will be considered regarding whether or not to give points for Nations Cup finishes. 3. All Changes in Pilot, Engine and Chassis for each team must be completed by March 1. This will enable the Race Commissioner to get the spreadsheets finished before the season starts. Any teams added after the season begins will be permitted no changes in any points paying positions. Resume Speed. Thank you. |

Training and WHAT???
Press Release: Team Aggression Maximisation
It was announced today that the secret paramilitary training camp attended by the staff of TAM had been raided by the Police Drug Squad. "The place was like turned upside down man" said race strategist Hunter S Thompson. "But the guys with major social adjustment problems and small $#%^& couldn't find a thing". All reports that this has caused a disruption to the training program of Michael "hey, we had him first" Andretti and Paul "why am I so suddenly popular" Tracey have been -= well you know, like over done man. So it's back to the sexual tension of doing without, and the force feeding of chemicals that as yet have been only been given FDA approval for vetinary usage. Pammy, where are you babe? We need money for bail! |

Liz, I mean Ms. Commissioner, if we're going to give Nations Cup points, then we'll have to handicap the Brazilians!! According to CART.com, there are currently 11 Brazilian drivers on the list this year!! (I thought I followed things fairly closely, but who the heck is Max Wilson??!!!)

Agression Maximisation Training and Development Lesson Number Two
Team Agression Maximisation Press Release: The Gonzo Way
Dateline Friday 2015 hours daylight saving time. It's an ill wind that blows somebody no good and it looks like it comin' our way. To increase the focussing capacity of the Sexual Tension approach to Driver Training and Development (please see lesson one), Hunter S. has tied Michael and Paul back to back, gagged them with gaffer tape and started playing his collection of bluegrass classics at TEN TENTHS! Yes sweet readers a steamy night in the Australian desert is pierced by the sounds of "Banjo Therapy" - patent pending (move over Louise Hayes this one's out to get ya)Lester Flatt and Earl Scruggs signing up a storm while Hunter S, stark naked and full of Amphetamines and bad manners chases Pammy around in front of the hapless pair of drivers. The 250 milers are a walk in the park after 12 hours of this aggrevation. Of interest to the few team members tentatively clinging to what passes as sanity on a mini mental health assessment - is the apparent abscence of the great man, sorry, The Great Man, Allan Moffat. Surely he's not going to leave the party to form another Ford powered team... |

Team Twinkle Press Release
"Team Twinkle are preparing for the new season, by spending a month on the beach in Bali. The team principle said "What better way for Jimmy, Roberto and Kenny to form a strong team bond than relaxing together whilst enjoying the company of Ms. Crawford (press officer) and Ms. Lopez (Pit Babe). And besides we'd best enjoy Wrippoff & Leggits sponsorship money before the taxman catches up with them" The team also noted with amusement TMG's training methods and hope that their cars are well insured."

Gonzomania
Strung down and out in the ugly depths of the Gonzo method...
We're wired for action baby, like ready to get down and dirty with you pussies (or is that pussy's)the art of abstainence raised to the point of torture is the answer. Hands up who voted for Nixon... get out of here Hunter. Camera swings with crash zoom to middle aged strung out guy inhaling cement dust while Pammy exclaims, "I don't feel no different yet Hunter". Isn't this usually used to soak up oil? |

A new theme for Xterminator Racing has been choosen. The Pink Panther anthem has been chosen to honour the team members. However this does not mean that the cars are going to be pink as the drivers refused that! Oh well, maybe next year!

Team Web Sites
Press Release: Team Agression Maximisation - Gonzomania
Bella, We who expected better from the likes of you, have visited your web site - only to find that the Premier Team in the fantasy league have been excluded from the vote! This requires your urgent attention, Pammy is getting all mealey mouthed about the gear she is wearing and Hunter S. is downright complaining about the gear going up his nose. I can feel the need for some intrathecal led therapy -(bullets you idiots) for the PR team. Meanwhile team drivers, "Paul the magnificent" and "Michael the also appearing in the cast" have been taken to the beach for an increase in the Sexual Tension Approach to driver training and development. The Banjo's only being able to do so much harm, it's time to resort to more drastic measures.... |
