Richard looked down at his phone after the cameras went off and saw he had two missed calls from Mindy. 'Shit' Debbie looked over at Richard right as he put his phone away. 'What's up Rich?' He stood up and stretched. 'Oh, Nothing. Gotta head out now though. I told Mindy i would uh, help her with something' Debbie stood up and hugged Richard. 'OK, Richard. Well, good luck with that. I'll just nick an old challenge car from the garage and head back to my house. No need to go out of your way for me. Thanks Rich, I had a lot of fun today' She stood up on her tip toe and pulled one leg up and kissed Richard on the cheek. She grabbed the keys  To the Mini Richard used in the India special. The front end was fixed back onto the front and the wench removed. She hopped in and started the engine. She squealed the tires and parked next to Oliver. 'Hey! Hammo, One more race. Mini versus Opel!' Richard ran out to his car and hopped in. They set up A mile away from the finish line and James dropped the flag. Debbie and Richard gunned it at the same time and for a few seconds they spun tires. Debbie rocketed out first and then at the last second Richard pulled forward and won. 'Gahh!!' She yelled. Richard smiled and said 'You can't win them all.' Debbie wished the boys well and Richard good luck and pulled out of the drive. She took a detour past Richards house and saw Mindy outside with her dogs....... Crying with her head in her hands.
