    With the cliff''s edge looming ominously nearby, Walter''s concern got the better of him, and he eased off the throttle.

With everyone in racing gear, she blended into the sea of anonymity. The crowd hushed as Walter approached, his presencemanding and aloof.

    This was going to be quite the show.


    The crowd caught a glimpse of his face and fought back screams-it was Walter!
