Maddie cruised away from the pig, all the while keeping her eyes wide open for any other strange happenings on the race course. She kind of knew where most of the obstacles were in the beginning, so she was able to steer around both the cow and the first puddle. She could hear the sound of a moo in the distance, but she tried to ignore it as she focused on the road.

Her ears soon tuned in to the sound of something beating against the track. It almost sounded like an animal with really hard feet galloping toward her. She felt a lump in her throat and tried to swallow a bit to ease her nervousness. She kind of had a feeling about what was ahead, so she tried to focus on both the animal and the road. She slowed down a little, knowing something was ahead.

Soon enough, and just as she expected, a galloping horse came into view. Luck was on Maddie's side this time, though, since she had slowed down and kind of expected there to be a horse. "Whoa, boy," she said. "Or girl..." She really couldn't predict which way it was galloping, and if she accidentally hit it, she wasn't sure if the horse or the car would win. Why, oh why, did her first experience driving have to be on an obstacle course? The horse was getting closer, so Maddie decided to dash off toward the opposite side of the road. She actually managed to drive around the horse quite nicely.

That was the scariest experience on the track yet!
