Yay, #7 - the true winner!!

Right when the K9 gets hung up on his trailer, watch for the yellow truck that's snapped in half, driving through the background, hobbling off in defeat! Made me laugh
did not think this would be as entertaining as it turned out to be, though clearly number 7 was the winner, hauling that massive target around untill the very end? What a boss. Though we all know that everyone wins, except the cleanup crew lol
