"What's that?" I had shouted even before the car had passed through the gates of W.J.M.C. You see, I had caught sight of a huge inflatable water slide and could hardly contain my excitement. W.J.M.C had really done it this time. We whizzed through the setting up eager to try out the slide and play with our friends. We laughed, and played and ran around all morning, occasionally sneaking out of line to get a bite to eat.
While Riona and I were waiting in line for the water slide a whistle broke through the crowd of noisy children. Our stomachs clenched as the person that whistled told us that the presentation was starting.
Riona's group was first up (Lucky her), and when her name was called, her cheeky smile transformed into a huge smile that lit up her face. She stood proud and tall with the other kids on the podium , glowing like a diamond in the rough. Yes in the Demo class everyone gets a trophy, but that doesn't bother any of the young ones.
A few classes later, Rohan's group the 50cc Auto B-Grade (or Div2) started getting called up. We all bit our lips and crossed our fingers tightly as B grade started being announced. We knew it was a very close matter and came down to the last few races. When Rohan's name got called as first, we all cheered loudly while Rohan practically skipped to the podium with happiness.
After what seemed like an agonisingly long time to me, my class (the 90cc-125cc Quads Competition B-Grade) started being called up. I was bouncing in my seat not able to sit still, and when my name got called for first in B grade I almost ran to the podium.
Overall - and I think I speak for everyone when I say - we all had a lot of fun and we would do it again any time. Well other then when there is a race on of course, then we would rather go there.
We once again we want to thank everyone that supported us thru this season, as without the support it would just not be possible.
Special Thanks goes to our new Sponsors R.W. Dowling & Co and Blueemlisberg for their support into the 2018 season.
We are very keen to do it over all over again.
