Eight of twelve drivers tested start; only those that did not pass or did not attempt will be noted below. You can see the results under the status box for that driver.
With his 120 SS, Will sees no reason to push and takes the 120 line for free and P1.
Robert does 80 to the inside.
Don does 120 on the 120 line for free.
Justin mis-sifts (test Start 2sk = 9, -20 to start speed) and so does 80.
Dave does 80 to the inside.
Jim runs at 80 and starts the 120 line.
Paul does 120 and pulls into P5.
Jason does 120 and pulls into P6 on the outside. Note that he is NOT on the lineas he did not get the start space for it.
Chris does not push at 100.
John does not push at 60.
Tim also does 60 without pushing.
Franklin tries for 40 but mis-sifts (test Start 2sk = 9, -20 to Start Speed) and so rolls slightly. Because this was a mis-sift and not a stall, he may use his ACC instead of SS next turn, and he may push if desired.
Next plot due Wednesday, 22 January @ 8 AM ET (US).

Don did 120 (maintained), not 100. He had already paid for the first line and paid 1w for the second line. Note that I did *move* him 120, so the positioning is correct, but I marked the status box as 100 and did not charge a wear. These have both been corrected, so his current speed is 120 and current wear is 16.
