### Reaction/1962 Hotshot Rookie Trio Reaction

Lapis: Racers, what do you feel about Charles' death? Order is Ron, Sunoco Crew Chief, Sunoco Pitty, Dave, Jeremy, George, Perry, Johnny, Gary Racington, and Norman Larson. Starting with Ron.

Ron: Well this is racing and that's the nature of it. He knew the risks and loved them. We all miss him. But we will miss his dedication to racing more.

Sunoco Crew Chief (cries): NOOOOO! THIS IS BAD!

Sunoco Pitty (cries): Norman Larson is one of my buddies and it's so sad his racer died.

Dave: Poor guy had a hard crash there.

Jeremy: He did.

George: I was right behind him. I saw his huge crash and fire.

Perry: I did also see his fire. I was in 19th place at the time and the fire was even bigger then the one that happened in my aunt's house.

Johnny: That was a BIG CRASH!

Gary Racington: I will miss him so much. We worked for over 25 years together!

Norman Larson: Same here. (cries)

Lapis: Now, the 1962 Hotshot Rookie Trio.

Dan Pitstop: I can't believe this. My buddy is gone! We mostly raced for the ladies but he was determined. Determined to win a Piston Cup. He told me once he was not going to stop racing until the day he won the cup! He did it in 1965 and wanted to do it again but sadly he could not!

Mavis Tirebraker: He debuted in the same year as me. I wish more than one racer can get rookie of the year award because he deserved it too. Rest in peace buddy!

Kurt Heming: I refuse to believe the fact our honorary member is (Dolphin censor) DEAD! He was a hotshot too you know! Hotshots don't just DIE like that.

Lapis: Anyway, back to you Spike.

### Eddie's Reaction to his dad's death

Eddie: I am speechless. Really! (cries) REALLY! (bawls)

Ron: It's okay Eddie.

Sunoco Crew Chief: Maybe because Eddie's bawling the hardest.

Sunoco Pitty: I know right!

Dave: Are you ok, buddy?

Eddie: NO! (cries harder) MY DAD DIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!!

Lapis: It's okay Eddie. Or maybe not if I'm right.

Eddie: IT'S NOT!

Lapis: Oh.

Qwanell: Well I am a new racer but that's ok.
