Huh, Rah are you sure?

I thought I would end one place in front of Jonny (looking at the previous turn-chart- round 18-), that's why I didn't slow down.

Jamski did you not see the corner? Speed 7 with 1 WC........is it genius driving towards a glorious win or sheer stupidity? Stay tuned to find out.

* engine stalls...race over..... *

No need to give RAH more work then needed..

rah · March 10, 2004, 16:09

BY my count alva, to be in front of jonny would have required a wild card right on top of the normal right.

alva · March 10, 2004, 16:14

Could be, next time I will use the "reply with quote" button to calculate my moves though, they seem to be more 'lined-up" as the posted track

rah · March 10, 2004, 16:24

That is definately the case. It has caused me some confusion this race already, and is the reason I don't automatically dismiss someone when they tell me they should be somewhere else.

Jonny · March 10, 2004, 18:04

Turn 20 sent.

Skanky Burns · March 10, 2004, 22:22

My next move is sented.

I do a double-brake, and then I'm speed 5 with no WC, just like a certain doctor...

But sadly a bit ahead of him...

DrSpike · March 11, 2004, 05:54

Hehe you are the favourite for sure but we'll see what happens.

Skanky Burns · March 11, 2004, 07:42

That still puts you at a collision speed even if you continue to break and go left.

DrSpike · March 11, 2004, 08:02

The corner is mighty close.

Jamski · March 11, 2004, 09:43

Well, that will slow me down.

(now there's a plan! race HARD into the corner and crash to break, then use WCs to accllerate more quickly again !)

rah · March 11, 2004, 11:02

If you hit it too hard, you'll also lose a turn on top of being reduced to speed 0.

I may want to change my orders then... about 3 turns ago... I thought "pinball breaking" was allowed.

-Jam

DrSpike · March 11, 2004, 21:07

No point cos you ain't hitting me before that corner.

Jamski · March 11, 2004, 21:09

I meant bouncing off the sides, I didn't consider the fun to be had in tryig to prang you too

-Jam

DrSpike · March 11, 2004, 21:13

What sort of mad strategy is that? You know going off the track results in large penalties.

Jamski · March 11, 2004, 21:15

Well, the plan was to hit the corner so fast that I was so far ahead of you that I could still make it over the line first.... ummm... didn't really count the tiles ahead of me at any point.

DrSpike · March 12, 2004, 07:48

This turn is taking a while.......who are we waiting for?

Now the question is will Jamski spin out this turn or the next one?
