Miss Greater San Diego Mabelynn Capeluj was crowned as the new Miss California USA and won a sapphire-and-diamond ring, training for Miss USA pageant, custom clothing and beauty services, and, until it gets passed on in 2014, a diamond tiara. You are being judged and it's not all left on the track because your fate doesn't depend on your performance, it depends on someone else's opinion of you." But at a race we aren't there to be nice we are there to race. There are those few, like I said, who are there for business just like entering a race and know you are there to win.
