Round 9 Support Apolyton, buy Alpha Centauri

And they are off and racing again!
Spaced maintains his lead on the rest of the pack, but has a minor upset when he inadvertantly uncovered yet another oil patch. He started skidding towards the left side of the track but recovered soon enough. Meanwhile Rah is gaining slowly on our champ.

Drogue narrowly avoided an accident as Frozzy rammed Jonny just before he could ram Drogue. The track safety officer, having been fired only moments before the event, had no comment. Adding to the carnage, Pave misjudged the next turn, slamming into the side fence of the track just short of the next turn. He is out of the race.

ADG was stunned that there was a collision that did not involve him.

code:
.... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... .... S... ..o. .... .... ..R. .... ....J .... .... .... D... .o.. .... .j.. ..F. .... ....P ..A.a .... .... .... .... .o..

Current speeds, wildcards:
Spaced, 6, 1
Rah, 7, 2
Drogue, 4, 1
Jonny, 1, 0
Frozzy, 0, 2
ADG, 4, 2

Skanky, are you sure that's right, my orders shouldn't put me there.
My orders were

and it shows in my PMs that you have read that PM. I should be one square northwest of the oil slick, not southwest, hence no crash for me. You moved me two forward, instead of 4.

I think the old Formula 1 scoring is better, because it rewards those that take risks to win.

10 for first
6 for second
4 for third
3 for 4th
2 for 5th
1 for 6th

Should we backdate it to the last one? What happened in the last one?

So who wins? I think that I'm right in believing that there is one more oil patch remaining, but if rah and Spaced both use their final wildcards to accelerate, can rah catch up and will he choose the correct side to pass Spaced? Will it come down to the winner simply being the person to send their orders in first on the last round?

I think Spaced has the edge in this one. Should both of them accelerate next turn and use all their remaining wildcards to accelerate, S will still be 1 square in front of Rah.
And yes, 1 final oil-patch.

Yes, but they will cross the line on the same turn, and rah will be further ahead at the end of that turn. The best way is to look at it this way though:

Rah has 18 spaces left. If he accelerates with both his wildcards he'll be moving at 11 next turn, and 12 the turn after. So next turn he will have 7 spaces to go, moving at a speed of 12, and so will cross the finish line in 1 and 7/12 turns, or 1.583 turns.

Spaced Cowboy has 15 spaces left. If he accelerates with his remaining wildcard he'll be moving at 9 next turn, and 10 the turn after. So next turn he will have 6 spaces to go, moving at a speed of 10, and so will cross the finish line in 1 and 6/10 turns, or 1.6 turns.

Therefore, Rah will cross the finish line first.
