Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #285

The GDC originally planned on using humorously large and heavy tires for Rack 'n' Roll. After realizing that the field reset crew would be too weak to lug them around the field by around the seventh match, they decided to use pool tubes instead.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #285

FIRST wanted Michelin as a sponsor. Here the GDC evaluates using them as supplier of the gamepiece. Underneath that tire is a (now) very short FTC-bot.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #285

To spite all those opposed to 2009's super-low-friction wheels, the GDC decided to humor them.

The secret to Team 25's astounding grip on the field: These are their actual wheels, before the miniaturization process.

I don't think any team has worked harder to get Michelin as a sponsor.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #285

Obviously her mother never told her that her face would freeze like that. Such is the way in the world where the rubber meets the road and there's no such thing as a flat tire without a cause.

(end commercial)

Girl eat's shroom: "Omg nom nom"
Onlooker: "Hey now, you can't use steroids for this. That's just not GP. I'm a fraid we're going to have to...OH MY GOSH. RUN!!!!

(She was last spotted tossing aside obstacles in the countryside a week ago.)

Here we see the field reset crew rescuing Calum Pearson. Calum greatly regrets accepting the part of Plow-E in the live action version of the game animation that Paul Lazarus suggested for the 2010 kickoff.
