Action PhaseAction: Outside Corner, aggressive driving! Deploy teh banana peels!
Oomph blitzes to the outside path, [2] but fails to gain any appreciable ground! He takes a
-1 Penalty to Hazard Checks!
Inside track, Drive Defensively, go for that item box
Captain Falcon decides to drive somewhere other than behind Oomph and his bananas, defensively sliding to the inside path with a
+1 bonus on Pass Checks and a
+1 bonus on Hazard Checks!
Bill aggresively goes for the inner curve, trying to grab the item boxes.
"I'll get you yet Falcon!
Bill Ryzer cuts close to the cliff edge, pushing for every scrap of Momentum he can muster! He gains
ONE Momentum and takes a
-1 Penalty to Hazard Checks!
Mario was thinking back of the old times. It was the same as all those times he had to rescue the world/Peach. He always started at the lowest point, having to run across the entire world, but he'd always come out on top.
Normal driving on the inside, fire the red shell
Mario drives cautiously, keeping his eyes peeled for an opportunity to pass! He launches the Red Shell at Bill, [2]
+3vs[3]
-1 The shell catches Bill in the side, sending him flipping for a loss of
TWO Momentum! The Contra Vet struggles to regain control of his Kart as he slides toward the cliff edge, [6]
-1 and manages to get some traction and shoot toward the coursing river!
Drive defensively and get that Item Box already!
The Mysterious Mr. L follows Mario inside, driving defensively to get an Item Box!
Use blue shell, inside track, going for the item, driving defensively to avoid falling off.
Counselor Grimtoad briefly considers drafting to try and move up, but wisely decides his Momentum is too low for such a maneuver- instead, he Drives Defensively to stay on the happy side of the cliff edge and enhance his chances to gain a good item! And of course,
he launches the Blue Shell, hoping the shake up the Leaderboard for the last half of the race! The Blue Shell will hit at the end of the Action Phase in Turn Eight.

Movement PhaseOomph doesn't have the Momentum to Pull Ahead- instead, he places
all three Bananas in the formerly safe Outer Path, hoping to impede the following racers!
Captain Falcon takes a clean entry to the water hazard, [5]
+2+1 and fords the river with ease! He's got a great chance at the large cluster of Item Boxes floating downstream!
Bill Ryzer doesn't have the line he'd like after that Red Shell, [1]
+2-1 and as he struggles through the deeper part of the river he strikes a submerged rock! His Kart gives a horrible crunch, and he helplessly plummets over the waterfall,
Falling Back!
This is the opportunity Mario was waiting for! [4]
+2 He hits the water fast as he comes up behind Captain Falcon, and attempts a pass! [4]
+5vs[4]
+4+1 However, the veteran racer is able to cut off Mario's narrow passing lane, and Mario is forced to hang back lest he fall into deeper water and suffer Bill's fate! Mario and Captain Falcon are practically bumper to bumper!
[6]
+2+1 The Mysterious Mr. L has absolutely no problem navigating the swift current, and sets his sights on one of the plentiful Item Boxes!
Counselor Grimtoad [1]
+2+1 suffers a terrifying moment of deja vu as his light Kart loses traction in the turbulent water, but his conservative racing line lets him skip across the surface of the water, his Momentum carrying him through!
Cleanup PhaseCaptain Falcon aims for one of the Item Boxes, [2]
+3+1 and catches one even as he blocks Mario off! [2]
+1 He gets the
Triple Banana, and begins dragging them behind his Kart!
Mario tries for one of the Item Boxes, [2]
+3 and hits one of the floating goodies, [3]
+2+1 and picks up a
Bob-omb, dragging the explosive behind his Kart!
The Mysterious Mr. L lines up on one of the Item Boxes, [1]
+3+1 and can't help but run through one! [4]
+3 He picks up a
Mushroom just in time for the shortcut in
RED- assuming he survives his opponent's items, that is!
Counselor Grimtoad's unorthodox river navigation flings him into the midst of the Item Boxes, [5]
+3+1 and has absolutely no problem getting one, [5]
+4 picking up a
Triple Green Shell! The deadly trio begins defensively circling his Kart!
Bill Ryzer is saved by the helpful folks at Lakitu Towing, and is dragged back to the beginning of
BLUE! He darts forward with
TWO Momentum, hoping to make up lost ground quickly! There's only two laps left!
