Ode to Pickup Truck Racing

ODE TO PICKUP TRUCK RACING

Here we are at the end of the 09 season; let’s celebrate whatever the reason
At tonight’s awards some might get a cup; because Sonny’s race results show this is where we’re ending up
But just a reminder that you’re all winners; let’s take a look back at why we eat our dinners

The season starts, down at Brands Hatch; where we saw new faces join our patch
Rockingham’s first was an April call; when some they couldn’t avoid the wall
Silverstone was a great success; when the GSport duo they did impress

Back to the Rock the spotters glance; when both race wins go to the Dance
At Oulton Park the stewards had their say; before the points were published on that day
For Donington we had weather hot; and Seager won Grand final slot

Rockingham’s end went very fast; where places changed up to the last
Thruxton heard the woo’s get higher; when Nokia  set his car on fire
Pembrey brought an extra race, where No 4 won his first place

We finally bought the season to a close; the drivers showed us they’re all great pros
At Brands again in hellish rain, perhaps Halloween sent them all insane
But 63 was on the pace, aiming for a championship place

Let’s not forget those teams that back them up; for without them they wouldn’t have a pickup truck
We’ve seen some highs and some lows; but it always keeps us on our toes
The Grindrod team were full of grins; with the arrival of the adorable twins

This ode was not to raise any tension; if I didn’t give you a little mention
I hope you’ve enjoyed this quick remit; and 2010 doesn’t see you quit
We hope to see you and wish you luck; so raise your glass to the PICKUP TRUCK
