        Although I didn't realise that the PM and e-mail icons at the top of each post didn't appear unless you were logged in.

            Amazingly, there were (almost) no collisions on this turn, as everyone successfully merged into the lane of their choice. Three racers are lined up to take the right path, and the other three are intending to take the left path.

            Spaced's orders were A(M6)RB, which would result in him doing a Chaunk(tm) and being disqualified; however, I dont want to DQ anyone this early in the race because of carelessness (I think it can be assumed that he thought he was headed S, not SE), so I'm moving him AR(M6)B instead. But this is his one and only mulligan for this race...

            Now accepting turn 3 orders.

              (and I just watched the Nascar Race on TV, so I am pumped...one of the racers today literally rolled over the finish line....can we do that? )

                            As the racers enter the first sharp turns, they start to bunch up as they slow down. On the right track, rah takes the inside of the turn to squeeze past Sparrowhawk, while Duke remains cautiously behind. On the left track, all three racers are quite close together entering the hairpin.

                            Note: Spaced was not allowed to ammend his orders.

                            Now accepting turn 4 orders!

                              Sent, and I was pretty sure if I used both Slipstream and Accelerate that I would hit Rah as his square is the obvious choice, so I opted to take the corner wide (though I could have stayed behind him without slipstream, not sure which was the better option in hindsight).
