Hit the gas and hit a wall, or hit the brakes and get passed soon (or get hit and leave another oil slick)....decisions, decisions.

Umm, not that I'm complaining now because I can slipstream this turn but my (A+1) occured after the end marker.

ACK!

But the first A came before you passed the end marker.
If you hadn't done that you could have had an AA at the end of your turn, and that would have been OK, except that without the first A you wouldn't have cleared the marker.

I know people have been confused, but I hope it's clear now.

Rah,

Thanks for the interpretation, I do not know why I thought I was at speed six. I'll have to recalculate the rest of my queue then. I'm pretty sure that I'll be a space off now.

No, I just moved your a to the beginning, so you should be where you planned to be. Based on your move that what I thought you meant. I didn't want to delay the turn waiting for a clarification. But if you'd like to change it let me know.

You could calc a few orders in advance, and with the new rule, even if you crash, you'll end up in the same space so your turn should be adversely effected that much. Spaced is using a queue also.

Rah,

What I meant was that I thought that I was initially traveling at speed 6 (not 5) hence my orders were valid for the speed 6 thoughts that I was having.

I did want to be on that spot though; I did also have to recalculate all the other moves based on speed that was lost (to my stupidity) so I set up for sandbag alley correctly.

It is hard to see turns past that, so I have the next 4 turns in.

	Increase Your PM Length

Even this early in the race, I'm willing to bet that Jonny will easily win unless he makes some major mistake. He's already got a big lead, and there's no realistic use for any speed above 10 or 11 anyways (the southward straightaway isn't long enough to give enough time to accelerate much faster than that anyways). He also has more WCs than most of the rest, even though he didn't go through the pit. He may need to pit next lap for WCs (though not for speed since I doubt anyone will get close enough to him to crash), but then so will everyone else except Tuber and Sparrow.
