Grand Prix Rejects

01/04/2006 - Taking racing to the people wherever they may be is the key to the second series of A1 Grand Prix, starting at the A1 Grand Prix of Nations, Circuit Park Zandvoort, Netherlands at the start of October. And so is breaking new ground as the A1GP circus sets its sights on a series of venues that have never been used for motor racing before.

Many of these new venues will require specific regulations to draw the most from the 550bhp racers. For the Venice street race, crew catering will serve only Cornettos. For the hill climb in Tibet, half the field will start the course from the bottom, the other half from the top. For the night race in Lapland, huskies are to be used in place of scooters for moving items around the paddock. Cars will arrive flatpacked for the Ikea Cup race in Narnia, so extra time will be required for their assembly. Sniffer dogs will be used in place of marshals for the race in Baghdad to find any explosives in the cargo. Should any freight issues arise from the event in the Falklands, the event will be moved to Ascension Island. No one with hairy ears will start the races in Middle Earth until their ears have been plucked. Finally, fireproof overalls will be replaced by water wings for the Bikini Atoll extravaganza.

So, remember, A1 Grand Prix takes you places you've never been before.

If planets are allowed, i'd like to submit Yugopotamia, with driver Prince Mark Chang


And The Dimmsdale Dimmadome should host the Dimmsdale Dimmadome 500 by Doug Dimmadome what i basically want for that is an typical überamerican oval with oversided grandstands. You can just rename an existing one if you want.

I oppose that presenting the Tri-State Area Racing Team. Phineas will be the car's designer, with Ferb as the only driver and Candace as team boss.

I like this.

Anyways, how about Gallifrey, with the Doctor as driver and the Master as reserve driver?

Singapanorean
Belgalian x 2
Germgarian
Turkadipeantish (with community members stepping into the breach with this one)
Bahstralaysian
Singapanese
