    I thought about that, but rejected it since i had been specific about crash placement in the rules. Seeing how it effects this race will determine what I decide for future. On straight aways it shouldn't cause a problem. We'll see. This is an experiment testing damage and faster courses where max speed may make all the difference.

            Right, I didn't mean to imply that I was thinking you are going to ram people on purpose or anything... Just seeing how we are pretty close there, I think there is a distinct possibility of a crash... Although there haven't been many so far, so who knows. And as far as WCs, it surely makes sense to use them now for you, I think, because with the turbo package you can accelerate out of the pits faster and possibly slow down more inside to replenish more WCs.

                  Which reminds me, your name is very cool. It has a movie star like presence to it.

                      AN interesting turn. NO CRASHES and Sparrowhawk gets the luckiest of throws and stayed straight through the oil slick and as a result unbelievably found his way to the lead.
                      Maybe Kassi should have tried the same thing. (what are the odds, not good) So the smart play didn't pay this time. Quite a few slip opportunities. Who will take the lead into sand trap alley? We're getting ready to see why people will want a higher max speed.


                      Now accepting orders for turn5.

                          luck sometimes beats skill. I wasn't sure what to root for when I made toss.

                                Without revealing my orders, I will explain if I can......and I think we are actually in similar positions (both headed NE in the turn, actually heading for the edge of the track).

                                I am going to turn left in my first move, moving me N, then I am going to turn left again, moving me NW.

                                That should keep me on track......does that answer your question
