And, coming around the turn, the thread seems to be in good shape after re-fueling, but-- oh no! it veers sharply to the left, and it looks out of control... no, wait... okay there it goes, back in the lane. But then another sharp turn! And another! Uh oh, it's looking ugly out there... okay, here we come in to the stretch...wait-- what's that? A lemonade can? There's debris on the track! No, the thread swerves, and it's okay! Ooh, that was a bad one... looks like it's going to hit the wall... Wow, what a save! Back in the groove and heading for the line now... I've never seen the crowd this excited! They're on their feet now, screaming, chanting... looks like it's gonna be close... this one's coming down to the wire... it's gonna be a photo-finish...

Uhh... wait, what were we talking about?
