T34.png
T34: Brent fails a forced pass, spends on the braking, and still had to pay the corner wear. Mike mis-plots (sigh) and is re-plotted to his highest legal speed. He opts for the late brake over the chance roll. Kevin fails a forced pass attempt on the blocking Tim. To add insult to injury, he takes damage.


T35.png
T35: Doug takes the lead into the final lap! Are Andrew and Kevin sharing a space?!


T36.png
T36: Brent and Rando doing some side-by-side racing.
