    Everyone is racing hard for position as they negotiate the final turns. Cyan and Magenta are tied for the team lead; the next pass could decide the title.

    10th) PolloDiablo (3 tires / 2 brakes / 3 gearbox / 3 suspension / 0 body / 2 engine) (OUT)

    desc and antherem come out of the final turn side by side, while admanb seems to be losing ground to Inksplat.

    Darkewolfe is guaranteed to cross the line in 4th; desc can roll at will.

    Redlining and drafting would leave me JUST short of the line :(

    But if you redline and then draft, you'll be ahead of him and thus rolling before him next round.

    desc comes screaming toward the line, only for antherem to pick up his draft and whip past at the last moment. admanb tries to carry enough speed on the outside line to stay in front of Inksplat.

    antherem is guaranteed to cross the line in 5th, with desc in sixth. admanb can roll at will.

    As the others cross the line, admanb begins to pull away from Inksplat, who is carefully saving his brakes.

    Might as well call this one now, I can't catch him

  • Options
    DarianDarian Yellow Wizard The PitRegistered User regular
    Yeah, even if he stays in 4th for another turn to avoid the potential engine overheating, he's still guaranteed to cross the line next turn, before you get out of the final corner.

    Final Standings:
    1st) tofu - 10 points
    2nd) acidlacedpenguin - 8 points
    3rd) Darian - 6 points
    4th) Darkewolfe - 5 points
    5th) antherem - 4 points
    6th) desc - 3 points
    7th) admanb - 2 points
    8th) Inksplat - 1 point
    9th) SageinaRage
    10th) PolloDiablo

    Congratulations to Team Magenta, whose total of 12 points edges out Team Cyan for the victory.

    Hey, we managed to finish the game in ten months. That's well shy of a full year, and much quicker than our Twilight Imperium games. :P

    We'd need someone who owns the game to start it up for us, but I'd be willing to play again.
