Sorry, just a bit late. But you can use a couple of WCs and still stay on the track so I'm sure it will be just a minor inconvience. You usually don't make mistakes, I'm surprised.

But only 4 squares from 3rd again, and lots of opp to slip.

Haha, but rah, third is not an option. Before sand alley it was a couple squares from first. That's okay though, certainly not all is lost.

True Vovan, but it's still a long race.

Yep GJ, I had that same feeling when I made my move the last race. When I opened your orders, my thoughts were, "gutsy". It feels good when it works. When it doesn't, you can ask Vovan since that's how his turn went.

Okay I'm in. I see my mistake now. When I originally counted it I used AA(7M)L for my first turn, which would have allowed me to BB going into this turn and not burn another WC.

I hope this stupid mistake does not cost me the race.

Oh and I will surely be pit stopping at a very slow speed to recharge the WCs. I doubt that I be able to use the top speed since I'll really have to slow down for the turns.

Spaced burns a WC but cruises around the turn setting up for the pits.
Jonny also burns a WC to get his speed up and stays only one turn behind spaced.

Then everyone else except for VOVAN choses the outside line and Kassi hits Sparrow.
Sparrow wins the toss. Kassi ends on the same space as Tuber, so tuber gets no penalty.

BUT THERE IS NO AN OILSPILL UNDER SPARROW(car 3)
Sparrow is definately going to need to pit. Probably very slowly to regain as much max speed as possible.

I'm anticpating almost all to pit this lap, but the question will be who can arrange not to pit on the next lap.

Can Spaced continue to open his lead? Tune in for the next lap.


Now accepting orders for turn 14.

This is the luckiest turn I've seen yet. Both people go through the oil and stay straight.
AND everyone bunches up in the far turn and no one CRASHES. I'm impressed. While the odds are easier on the turn it is created, there's still a good chance but NO ONE has failed the throw this race. Maybe on the next lap. I was really hoping for a crash in this turn to make an oil spill for the next 2 laps.

Spaced sets up for the pits. Jonny hanging in. And the pack stays the pack.

A REMINDER THAT SPECIAL POWERS NOT ALLOWED IN THE PIT (PROPER)



Now accepting orders for turn 15.

Sparrow is definately going to need to pit. Probably very slowly to regain as much max speed as possible.


How were we lucky?

Nevermind, we were lucky because of a typo.

ACK!

I have one too many wildcards though (I should have 8 as I used one this turn)....but if you want me to keep it I could probably make good use of it

Sent, Jonny will probably not pit, so this is going to be close.
