El Oso, El Bandito, y El Vagabundo
Round one was a resounding success for the Nuko Oso boys. After not having practiced for today’s race, driver GRM_Bandit was able to secure P5 in race one (while also finding his way into P2 for a short while) and P4 in race two (while also securing best lap with a 1:14.5). Driver John_Wanderin also had a good stint, but as fate had it, the #88 car had some mechanical issues throughout the race. The new pit crews of Nuko Oso forgot to replace the front nose of John’s car in both races, forcing the #88 into several unnecessary pit stops. All things considered, team boss offapple was pleased with both American drivers after today’s performance. GRM_Bandit was later interviewed by an independent reporter, and was caught talking about his teammate.
“I quite like him (John). He reminds me a bit of myself, and of another driver I raced with on Forza. He’s reserved, calm, and cool behind the wheel, and I like that about him. His personality counterbalances the over abundance of excitement and boldness Mika, Orama, and myself bring to the team (Nukeshot Motorsport and Nuko Oso). I think he’s gonna have a good season, but whether or not he admits it is a different story.”
