6 Kassiopeia 7 6 E (6M)LRB



Note: Cars 4, 5, and 2 are all sitting on sandbags.

Chaos was the main theme found throughout the track on this turn. In the front of the pack, Rah found himself head-to-head with a wall. Apparently, he prefered to dent his hood up a little than to burn a WC. However, his stinginess will cost him 3 speed.

Kassiopeia heads into the 2nd split, opting to take the upper route, and Sparrowhawk is right behind him. Spaced is also approaching the split in the middle of track, and he hits a rogue sandbag. Further back, Ljube hits a previously hidden series of three sandbags, and just behind him Gamecube hits the first of those three bags.

Now accepting turn 13 orders.

And not sure if mine was the right decision, but my thinking was that I was probably headed off the track at some point, so this was as good of place as any. And having two WCs will help when the rest catch me.

6 Kassiopeia 6 6 SE B(5M)R



At the front of the pack, Rah starts to re-accelerate under the overpass after his run-in with the track wall. Back at the second split, Kassi, Sparrow, and Spaced are all bunched up entering the upper track. Spaced and Sparrow have 4 WCs, and Kassi has 6; so it will probably be only a matter of time until someone tries to bridge the gap between them and Rah... or will they try to bunch up and slipstream off each other to catch up? Further back in the alley, Gamecube and Ljube run into each other as Gamecube is slowed down somewhat by 2 sandbags... Ljube was randomly chosen to get the front spot, and they are both charged with a -2 speed penalty. It seems that the last few turns have been rather problematic for these two, especially Ljube.

Now accepting turn 14 orders.

6 Kassiopeia 6 6 SE R(2M)L(2M)



Rah slows down in order to negotiate the upcoming turn with minimal WC loss. Meanwhile, Kassiopeia maintains his speed approaching the track merge that Rah just went through not too long ago. Back near the bridge on the upper track of the 2nd split, Spaced rear-ends Sparrowhawk, slowing them both down a bit (speed -3 for both). Further back, Gamecube and Ljube recover from their collision on the track. Ljube moves to the right side of the track, possibly aiming to take the lower track at the split, while Gamecube stays in the middle of the track.

Notes: Spaced tried to accelerate at the end of his turn, which is not allowed. (You can brake at the end of your turn, but not accelerate.) Also, Gamecube tried to stripstream off of Ljube, but slipstreaming off of someone you had crashed with on the previous turn is also illegal.

Now accepting turn 15 orders.

5 Ljube-ljcvetko 3 4 E A(5M)
6 Kassiopeia 5 6 S B(4M)R



Ljube's string of apparent bad luck over the past few turns seems to be continuing, as he runs into 2 more previously uncovered sandbags, due to his apparent choice to take the lower, unused path. Gamecube accelerates with a WC while aiming for the upper track. Spaced and Sparrow recover from their collision and are now side by side approaching the merge, although Spaced holds the inside track for the upcoming turn. Kassi increases his lead over them, although he does hit the brakes for the upcoming turn. Rah begins to cautiously make his way through the loop, slowly as a sunday driver out on a sightseeing tour. Unfortunately for him, his peace and quiet may be disrupted soon.

Now accepting turn 16 orders.

Do those | characters count as distance or are they there just "between" the actual track, the asterisks? As in, is *|**|* a distance of six or four?
