Score: 44–94 (max 100)
5 all round from our Champion andd Challenger...............over in DC they get to shine with their 7s one of those was Airboat which are found in places like the Florida Everglades.................it is plane sailing for our Recap writer as she spots the other one with Aviator

Round 15: T I N A S F A S T
C2 buzzes on 2.25 seconds to say FANTASIST which is correct.
Final Score: 44–111 (max 120)
A super speedy buzz from our new champion Toby and the newest member of the teapot club , I have a funny feeling that we could be seeing him on our screens over coming the days, but take nothing away from Lucas will his 6 wins and his 607 points be enough for the Series 89 finals ? Join me again to see how our apterite Toby gets on...........in the meantime it is bye for now
