But seriously, four forward, two right, thirteen straight. This puts me directly behind El Guapo, at which point I will slipstream two left, one forward.

Thank you, sir. They all disappeared when I submitted the turn, though.

Collision rolls:

bb2112 (Yellow 2): 5, 18
NickAragua (Blue 2): 17, 12, 20
Isgrimnur (White 1): 7, 10
hentzau (White 2): 15

Normally, I save off a grid of 5 black die rolls. I had to use all five of them for hot-rodding, traffic-dodging Nick.

Right 2, ahead 17. Should put me in the first space of the turn on the outside.

How about right 2, forward 15? It gets you to the same space without breaking the rules or the laws of physics? :P

I wouldn't say it was completely unnecessary in order to maneuver effectively, but yes, I played the odds.

And after looking at it, there was a 20% chance that that maneuver could have ended my race and perhaps using some of those brake points might have been a better choice. But when you're Mr. 1/400, what's life without a little risk?
