Forward 9, Left 2, glance down, see the nitrous switch, think "Huh. How the hell did that get into my Formula 1 car?", shrug, hit it, and move forward 4 more spaces. No slipstream.

Unbelievable! A roll I like!

Right, right, forward 10. Slipstream right, forward, right. Should put me in the first space on the inside of the turn.

I did not see that coming.

Done.

However, the rules indicate that slipstreaming into a turn like that will cost you a Brake WP. Please confirm.

Use 1 brake to reduce it to 7. Forward all the way, eating two points of tire damage.

FYI from this Saturday the 17th through next Saturday the 24th I am going to be out of town, and I'm not sure what my internet connectivity is going to be like. So either NickAragua can make my calls for me, or we can pause the game, whichever people prefer.

And if I wind up with a steady internet connection I'll post here and then everything will proceed as normal, I suppose.

Done.

No worries.

As I'm going to be out of touch for Friday night and most if not all of Saturday myself, things are slowing down into the holidays. I have no issues with whatever pace the game happens to take.

Turn 29 Collision Rolls:

bb2112 (Yellow 2): 7
Isgrimnur (White 1): 17

I was pretty much screwed once the dice came up. Even your third gear roll would have put you adjacent to me.
