<div align="center"><strong><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 14pt;">FINAL HEAT!!!</span></strong></div><br/>As expected, the final heat got off to a hot start, with the GTI, Marc, and Jules all flying off the starting line as soon as the flag waved. The GTIhad a little trouble shifting at the wave of the flag, and was left in the dust as the other three cars flew down the road. The GTI's driver struggled for another second, cursing at himself before slamming on the pedal, pushing his car forward, although he was already well behind the others.<br/><br/>The WRX started off the best, racing down the track with the initial lead. Jules was pressuring hard on the WRX, especially on each of the first few turns. Marc was right behind them, keeping up with them. After a few turns, Jules had finally edged off the WRX, sliding ahead of the car. Marc managed to slip by the WRX as well, though the WRX was still hot on his heels. The poor GTI driver was still lagging behind, though he was gaining a little ground with every curve. Jules, Marc, and the WRX slipped back and forth for the first few laps, and by the time the last lap was on, Marc had edged ahead to first, with the WRX and Jules battling right behind him. As they curved around the last straightaway, Marc slammed on the pedals, pushing his car as fast as it could, and he managed to get around the last curve with the perfect amount of momentum to speed away to first place. Jules and the WRX didn't get quite so perfect a turn, and the WRX driver took advantage to push Jules ever so slightly out of the way and push ahead, while Jules pushed her car ahead, hoping to get those few feet that she needed to beat the WRX. The WRX's driver stayed focused, though, and took second place behind Marc, with Jules coming in as a close third and the GTI driver coming in just a second later to finish out the head.<br/><br/>Cheers went up to celebrate the end of the race, and the flag woman brought out a bottle of champagne, blasting it open as Marc opened his door and got out, to get the final proceedings started, which would of course include the prizes for the top finishers.
