    That's because I crashed and so my max speed was decreased. It means now at the beginning of the turn I have to do a B to go down to safe speed for my wrecked car.

      Jonny cruises through to the lead for now.
      Spaced's car is refreshed and ready to hunt bear.
      GJ is poised to pit.
      And the rest start to line up to take their turns in the pit.


      A REMINDER THAT SPECIAL POWERS NOT ALLOWED IN THE PIT (PROPER)
      A BmmmmmmB counts as using your special power, and you can't use WC's either.
      But a BBmmmmmm prior to crossing the ## works or a mmmmmAA if you've cleared the ##.


      Now accepting orders for turn 18.

      AND I"VE DECIDED TO CHANGE MY CRASH RULE FOR THE 2nd and 3rd lap. I'm going to stack both racers in the same spot instead of one behind the other. Having to avoid the oil from the back spot didn't work out like i thought. Hopefully this will work better.

        • Well, I think we did a good job of scattering the oil spills in most inconvenient places on the track.

          Orders sent duly.

          • That should benfit the sway people marginally.
            Some of them are in inconvienent spots.

            Many more crashes than I would have expected.

              Indeed, now if sparrow and I bumped at the entrance to the pits and at the exit, that would be just perfect.

                      You don't watch Nascar much, do you

                      Crashes are where it's at ...

                      Seriously though - I think the amount of crashes in this game has added to the excitement Perhaps lowering the penalty a bit more and then making them more likely is a good idea? (For example, have a one lap qualifier, determining starting position, and then have a 3 car wide (sometimes 2 car wide) track...)

                      For that matter, and this is purely as someone who's not watched FG: Nascar 1-8, have you tried round, shorter tracks, with more laps? It would seem to me that might end up with more excitement as well (ie more crashes/crash avoidance, and more relevance to pitting can be given, etc.)?

                          Everyone else just getting in line to pit. A boring turn. Sparrow didn't get hit.

                          A REMINDER THAT SPECIAL POWERS NOT ALLOWED IN THE PIT (PROPER)
                          A BmmmmmmB counts as using your special power, and you can't use WC's either.
                          But a BBmmmmmm prior to crossing the ## works or a mmmmmAA if you've cleared the ##.


                          Now accepting orders for turn 19.
                          It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

                          • My queue should still be good.

                            I'm wondering WTF Jonny is doing.

                            He looks to have to burn 2 WC in the turn to stay on the track.

                            Did my threat of hitting him, scare him?
                            We're sorry, the voices in my head are not available at this time. Please try back again soon.

                            • Can I send an order like this:
                              BMMMMA?

                              ACK!

                              Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!

                                I am sure glad you included that rule about anyone getting hit 6 times or more on one lap and then going through the pitts gets an automatic shield of invulnerability for the following lap (too bad for Vovan that it doesn't apply to him .......as it was him that hit me ).

                                Boring for whom exactly? I kinda like these turns where I don't have to watch the guy behind me avoid the oil spill that he created
