And they are off. Remember that you can go left and right in the same turn without using a wildcard. This is for getting around the others.
The racers are (car #, name, speed, WC):
1. Skanky, 8, 3
2. Rah, 8, 3
3. Alva, 7, 4
4. Rasputin, 7, 4
5. Jamski, 7, 4
6. Frozzy, 7, 4

And a wife and kids and a job from 9-5....Yeah one of those weirdos.

[Rasputin]

damn weirdos !!!

did you get my pm question , jsut need clarification

[Spaced Cowboy]

Also posted it here for everyone to get some help.

If you are going north and post a right then you will be traveling northeast. A left at this point takes you back to the north direction, while another right will take you in an easterly direction. You'll need to make a lot of rights to navigate this course. For instance, on the back straight, you will be traveling south, and to get in that direction you'll need to make 4 nicely timed rights.
Here is a sample move (assuming a north starting direction):
mmrmlmm

****1 End
****1
****1
****1
***1*
**1**
**1**
**1** Start

Also to note that I have no orders and that you can do an accelerate and brake (without a WC) on the same turn. Hence, from a speed of 8 you can acclerate on the first move and brake on the last, moving you 9 spaces, but keeping your speed at 8.

I need you folks to send you orders in the the mrlabs(+1) fashion.
m=move
r=right
l=left
a=accelerate
b=brake
s=slipstream
(+1) = wild card use.

Thanks!

Oops, my orders are NOT sent in the correct fashion

Do you want me to send again?

[Spaced Cowboy]

Alva,

No that is okay, it is pretty understandable. I'm more worried about when folks start jockeying for position. I want to make sure that their orders are executed correctly.

[Rasputin]

2nd round orders sent

[Skanky Burns]

Orders will be sent after work.

[Rasputin]

slowest nascar race i ever seen :LOL:

[Spaced Cowboy]

Still missing orders from Rah, Jamski, and .... you know who you are. Anyway, I don't have the track or tools at home, so if you could get the orders in by Monday, that would be great!

[rah]

OK< back from FLORIDA so I'll be regular again.
Orders sent. I hope I described them proper.

[Spaced Cowboy]

Still waiting on Skanky, Jamski, Frozzy, and Doc. Lets see if he notices that.

[Skanky Burns]

One question, I used acc+2 last round, why did that only use up 1 wildcard?
