FG: NASCAR 11 - NASCAR with a Vengeance

[Spaced Cowboy]

That was a total err in judgement, I did not see that I should have cross-cutted the first turn a bit, but it is working for me now.

Anyway, trying to print out the track proved to be a challenge. I had to convert the textpad file to a .pdf after removing all the margins.

I should have said getting all on one page.

Looks to me like we just need Snoopy and Drogue for the update (and then rah of course).

Rah, you actually only moved GJ 10 spaces. I was 3 behind him before, only moved one faster, so I should be two behind him now. If if you count 11 moves from his previous position, he's right behind Sparrow, but moving NE.

Corrected, I'll give him a chance to mod his orders for the next turn.

Kass drops a spam bomb but Hawksworthy anticpates and dodges.
Butch also goes around along with the cowboy.
But those further back i.e Druggie, Snoop
Kass tries to slow John down but John takes a hard right and avoids.
And then making sure he doesn't hit John if he had been slowed down, doesn't
make the last left and will have to burn a WC next turn. Spam bomb back fired.
But snoops bomb will eventually hurt John, by making him use a WC.

Man, these SPAM bomb makes what would have been boring turns fun.

Now accepting orders for turn 9.

Actually, I just forgot to L, it wasn't a part of a master plan or anything.

and I attributed it to over thinking.
But I like the concept of trying it on your nearest opponent.
