Fixed,
and I'm just teasing about the other stuff. I think we're moving at a fine pace, considering 8 people have to do something inbetween every turn.

We've had much slower races before.

Not that it matters, I am fine with my placement, but wouldn't I have continued going straight (despite the sandbags slowing me down) until I had moved 7 spaces before turning? (that is what I intended, and even though I sent orders based upon my current position, it would be good to know if this is how it will be handled in the future....in which case I would have stayed straight, assuming that I would have hit sandbags).

Either way it is all good

* Sparrowhawk

Edit: Revised orders sent!!

Naw, I screwed yours up, I'll repost turn 10.
It's amazing I don't make more errors. IT's easy to get confused in the alley.

Jeff tries to shake it up and hit's 6 bags, reduced to speed 6. Bad choices
Sand under his car.
Butch tries to shake it up also and hit's 5 bags, reduced to speed 7.
Bad choice but not as bad as jeff as he takes the lead. It is clear under his car.
Druggie does a little better and hits only 4. It is clear under his car.
Note he never got to the L order so he is still heading NE
Cowboy hit's five and there is sand under his car.
Snoop tries to barrel through and hits only 4. It is clear under his car.

John and Kass approach and hopefully have learned something. (besides sand trap
alley is a pain in the ass.) If they do, they shouldn't fall farther behind and may
be able to get back into it. There is a way through.

And I am thrilled to see that none tried to put an A at the end of their turn.



*************NEW RULE CHANGE************
EFFECTIVE as soon as you pass the ====== at the END of sand trap alley.
The extra speed generated from an S command (+1) can be used even if it exceeds
your max speed. If it does exceed your max, your end speed will show as your
normal max again and you not have to brake to start the next turn. If it
doesn't exceed your max, it will be added to your end speed (just like it does now)

Butch times his exit perfectly (would have been a good place for a spam bomb)
He'll be able to make the turn accelerating.
Jeff clears but can't get far enough down to start the turn.
Cowboy clears with only hitting one bag on the way out.
Druggie clears hitting only one bag, and exposes the clear path through the last part.
Snoop clears but his three more.
Jonny hits three bags, sand underneath. Surprised he didn't try to locate the clear
way through that had to be on the right. So he will not be able to take advantage.
Kass at least tries a new path searching for the clearing but misses and hits 3 bags.
There is sand under him.

Remember the new rule, even though going into a tight turn, extra speed may not
be desired But could help under the right circumstances for some of you.

The extra speed generated from an S command (+1) can be used even if it exceeds
