Location: Caymanas Golf Club
   
Caymanas Golf club was the venue for the Rally's prize giving ceremony. We arrived early finding an "empty" gravel car park. You know what that meant! Jeffery Panton was the first to arrive in his Celica GT-Four and was cordially directed to give the crowd a little something. Without hesitation, he delightfully spun the Celica in the gravel for the crowd. None other than Roger "Windmill" Skeete shortly followed. Skeete needed no instructions on what had to be done. We in Barbados already know what the Sheriff is capable of. He had already fed the crowd some donuts at one of the earlier stages. He revved up the Ford Escort Cosworth and with the tip of the hand brake initiated some awesome donuts. Think that was the end? Rolling in behind him was the red Celica of Roger Hill. The crowd stopped him, as they demanded him to "do something". I was privilege to witness Roger Hill do donuts in the Celica for his first time. He left that place dusty as he showed the crowd he knows how to do it. I hope Roger knows that if he can do donuts for the Jamaicans, he is expected to give us Bajans at home a little something too.

At the presentation, people were still talking about Trevor "Micey" Manning, seen here (in the black shirt) in high spirits with Roger Hill. One fan told me, "You see de mon Micey from Barbados. De man have big balls mon. Big balls." I also heard another fan saying, "when de man come by de ninety, im give we de lights, scandi and gone. Me nuh hear nuh pop pop from de antilag. De man was just flat out!"

Although he had a slew of misfortunes throughout the rally, Trevor had a great time. I asked him how he felt about the rally to which he replied, "I didn't win the rally, but I won the crowd." He further went on to talk about one of his crowd-pleasing moments. "There was this corner were we had to go over a bridge with no sides and then though a gate. The road was really narrow," Trevor indicated. "But if you look at it really good, its really a hairpin. Man I went over de bridge and though de gate sideways, de back wheels on one edge and front on de other. When I look in de rear view mirror, I see Jamaicans running and jumping all over de road. It was fantastic."

   
Roger Hill, the highest placing Barbadian, finished 3rd overall. The Jamaicans thanked the Bajans for leaving their trophy in Jamaica. They further went on to suggest that when the Jamaican Invasion comes to Barbados for our All Stage rally, that they would be taking back our Trophy. Roger Hill was quick to let them know that the Jamaicans can't win our Texaco All Stage rally and to "put that in your pipe and smoke it." The Jamaican's reply was "we have better things down here to smoke."
