The List: Shocking Dungey Headlines

Monday, February 4, 2013 | 3:10 PM
We used "Springing Back Up" for our Saturday Night Anaheim 3 race report headline. What else could have worked? We did a little brainstorming, and these ideas sprung forth.

- Dungey springs back after letdown in heat

- Pressure's off: Dungey rebounds to season first victory

- Dungey loses air in shock, finds wind in sails

- Shock Therapy: Dungey recoils after heat DNF, bounces back in main

- Dungey Super Pumped. Shock, Not So Much

- Coil (Not) Over: Dungey Wins

- Shock Springs Eternal

- Bad Shock Can't Dampen Dungey

- Spring is Here!

Air shock fizzles, Titanium springs to victory!

Air shocks put the flat in flatulence...

Air takes a dump, titanium yields unobtainum.

Flat shock leads to fat wallet for RD.

RD runs out of air in the heat, holds his breath for LCQ, and then blows them away in the main!

Too much fun.
