Hey all, sorry about the delay. We'll press on and attempt a turn tomorrow as well. Giovanni builds his lead a bit while the front of the field continues to spread, at the same time the back half continues to bunch up.

Next Deadline: Turn 26 plots due Wednesday, March 23 at Noon EDT/4pm UTC (soft deadline). Hard deadline will be Thursday at 8am EDT/Noon UTC (48 hours from now).

Turn 25 Results
Giovanni hits the gas and goes 120 out of Fullerton down the straight. William takes the Fullerton line at 60 for free. Turyko goes 80 and takes the Sling and Fullerton lines for a wear each. Dave follows him at 80 on the Sling line for a wear and finishes just before Fullerton on the line.

Jim goes 100 down the straight and starts the Sling line. Simone goes 120 and pulls to the inside of Jim before the Singapore Sling. Chris goes 80 on the Rec Club line, while Joe goes 60 through the 60 and lines up behind him. Marshall goes 100 through the Rec Club 60 for 2 wear, and pulls up outside of Chris.

Ken goes 80 and sheds a wear on the Stamford line and another in the Rec Club 60, he grabs Joe's spoiler. Doug goes 40, finishing the Memorial line and taking the Stamford 40. Grant goes 80 and looks to the line but sees Doug sitting on the 40, so he is forced into the Stamford 60s for a wear.

The dice continue to be friendly as William and Turyko nail their acceleration rolls and Simone's brakes continue to hold up. He's fought his way into a solid 5th position, but with his wear and skill dwindling, can he hold it for another lap and a half?

Next Deadline: Turn 27 plots due Friday, March 25 at Noon EDT/4pm UTC (hard deadline).

Turn 26 Results
Giovanni goes 80 on the Esplanade line for a wear. William plots 120 and rolls a naked 7 on the acceleration table to get there, he starts the Esplanade line. Turyko plots 140 and also grabs his dice, and his last skill point to roll a modified 4 and gains a space on William. Dave takes it easy through Fullerton at 60 for free.

Simone plots 80 and uses his last single-skill chip on the brakes test (mod 5), and he runs over the Sling 40 for 2 wear and takes Fullerton on the line for another wear. Jim takes the Sling line at speed for free.

Chris and Marshall barrel down the straight at 100 with Chris grabbing the Sling line and Marshall moving to the inside. Joe follows at 100 and lines up behind Marshall while Ken goes 120 and finishes just outside of him.

Doug takes the Rec Club line for free at 80. Grant also goes 80 but with the line blocked must head outside to the 80s to avoid the wear spend.

From Turn 22:
Grant recovers from his spin at 60 and ends on the Boulevard racing line. Denied the line, Doug drops a wear on the Boulevard 80 space and slides by Grant.


What comes around, goes around. Heh...
Doug takes the Rec Club line for free at 80. Grant also goes 80 but with the line blocked must head outside to the 80s to avoid the wear spend.

In fairness, Doug did actually USE the line. :)

Simone goes 100 on the line for 2 wear. Jim goes 120 and starts the Esplanade line. Chris and Marshall each go 80; Chris through the 60s and ending inside, Marshall on the line and ending inside, each for a wear through Fullerton. Ken and Joe each plot 60; Ken on the Fullerton line and Joe through the 60s.

Giovanni probably sets the lap record and 3 other drivers above it at this point.

A quiet turn as several drivers inch toward bald tires. Dave and William join Giovanni and Turyko on lap 3. Great job turning your plots around - I was just unable to get to the adjudication!

(hard deadline).

Giovanni slows to 80 through the Sheares 60s for the already-paid wear. Turyko goes 120 into the 100s for a wear. Dave goes 140 and heads for the inside while William moves 7 "big ones" down the center, both starting their third lap. Simone and Jim each go 100 through the Promenade 100 space for free.

Turyko traces Giovanni's route while Dave and William are neck-and-neck in the middle of Sheares. Can William wrestle 3rd place away from Dave? They're even in wear but Dave's stronger car will make William's task difficult as the final lap wears on.

Next Deadline: Turn 34 plots due Tuesday, April 12 at Noon EDT/4pm UTC (soft deadline). Hard deadline is Wednesday at the same time. I'll aim to adjudicate early if plots are received early.

Turn 33 Results
Giovanni goes 100 and takes the Boulevard line for free. Turyko slows to 80 and takes the 60s for the already-paid wear. Dave and William each go 80 and finish side-by-side within Sheares, with the choice of slowing down or paying wear. Simone goes 120 down the inside, while Jim goes 140 and grabs his spoiler.

Marshall goes 120 through the Promenade 120s for free. Doug goes 100 through the 100 space. Chris continues at 80 and ends before Promenade. Ken continues at 60 for free to the last 60 space. Grant goes 60 through the 40 for a wear, but with Ken blocking the last 60 he heads into the 80s. Joe goes 80 for a wear through the 60s and pulls up behind Grant.

Simone is the first to bare tires as he hangs on to 5th place within Sheares and two more start their final lap.

Next Deadline: Turn 35 plots due Thursday, April 14 at Noon EDT/4pm UTC (hard deadline). I'll attempt to process the turn early if everything is received early.

Turn 34 Results
Giovanni accelerates to 140 down the straight. Turyko goes 100 for free on the Boulevard line. Dave and William go 60 in the Sheares 60s for free and remain side-by-side. Simone uses a brakes test with 1 skill to slow to 80, and he takes the 80-100-60 route through Sheares for his last wear. Jim goes 100 into the 100s.

Marshall goes 120 and ends in the middle lane before Sheares. Doug charges down the straight at 160, ending inside. Chris and Ken run through the Promenade 120s at 120. Grant continues at 60 and ends inside. Joe increases to 100 through the 80s for the wear paid last turn and slides in front of Grant before Promenade.

Dave gets the advantage in the battle for 3rd, Doug slides ahead of Marshall, and we're seeing a fierce battle for 11th.
