The UOP (Universal Oil Products) Shadow team thanks the organizers, fans, and competitors for a great season and championship round. We're proud to be on the podium and our fires are stoked to do even better in the future. We also admit a misunderstanding on the team may have limited our chances to win it all. When our lovesick chief mechanic saw our driver chatting it up with the Playboy umbrella girl after the first race he was very jealous and did not put his full effort into tuning the car for the next race. It turns out our driver was actually putting in a good word with the umbrella girl for our mechanic, and when this was revealed he tearfully confessed to the team regarding his jealous act. We were going to sack him after the final ceremonies but then our driver said things worked out perfectly because he hit it off with the gal holding the 3rd place banner and the four of them are headed to the Rivera together for a holiday. Slothead Racing is united again!
Thankfully, the tabloids are eating all this romance drama up and providing even more publicity for our sponsor, team, and this series.
