Done.

Isgrimnur (White 1): gear selection is 5th. Movement roll is 12. Use Nitro to boost to 17. Movement is forward x10, left x2, forward 5. Tower Turn complete.

While I appreciate you leaving the long path open, I wouldn't have needed the nitro if you'd ended in either of the other lanes.

Yeah, well next time dont give me the 1 in 10 roll that totally screws me and I would be happy to place myself at your disposal.

Keep it in 5th. No? Too much? Oh, OK. Let's downshift 2 to third, blowing one gearbox point.

Isgrimnur (White 1): gear selection is 5th. As tempting as 6th gear is, I really don't want to try and downshift that much to make Le Mans Curve.

Movement roll is 13. Movement is forward x14.

Less than halfway through the first lap, and I'm down to 1 tire, 1 brake, and 2 transmission. Yeah, this is going to end well.

hentzau's predicament gave me an idea for a slight change to the tracking app. On the "view" link it now shows car condition as a percentage of wear points remaining. :twisted: I am considering dynamically coloring that information as well but that would take more than the 5 minutes I had available.
