Yes. Gear first, then nearest to the inside of the next or current turn.

edit: wait! Thinking more.

So can I brake in order to slipstream? Like, say I move straight ahead 7, and use 1 brake WP. I could then slipstream left straight right, and then slipstream again left, left, straight, correct?

If so I'll do that.

If that's not legal (if braking would ruin it), then I'll go straight 7, left 1, straight 1.

You can not brake in order to slipstream. Straight 7, left 1, straight 1 it is.

Nick, I assume you're gearing up to get to your pit stall. Movement roll for 4th is 12, sufficient to get you to the pits. Please let me know your repair intentions. You can take 1 point on your transmission for a quick pit option, or take the two points for full repair and come out next turn.

This is a two-lap race, right?

If so, then I will make the full pit stop to swap out for soft tires and put my gearbox back up to max.

Coop watches the cars maneuvering in the distance as he cruises around the last turn. His eyes dart between the pits and next turn in the distance, where NickAragua is sliding, on the edge of control. Slowly a grin opens up on his face as his eyes narrow. With one last glance at the pit entrance, he slams the gear lever forward into fifth and pushes the pedal to the floor.

Left into the pit.
Two forward.
Three left.
Straight the rest of the way.
Burn two brake points so that I wind up in the last space of the outside lane.
