    Car Number Player Name Speed Wild cards Direction Orders
    1 rah 3 2 W B(M3)
    2 Spaced Cowboy 5 3 SE LR(4M)RM
    3 Sparrowhawk 3 4 SE (M4)RM
    4 Gamecube64 6 6 E ASMMMMMMR
    5 Ljube-ljcvetko 4 4 E ARL(2M)
    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.

                      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?
