Right here...
Turn 5!Continue driving normally.
You have my thanks. I'll change my action. I clamp webadict's racer behind me, combining our racers in order to combine both our speed bonuses and cornering bonuses (don't worry, I'll let you go before we reach the end, allowing you to get ahead of me).
I "accidentally" ram Frelock as hard as possible, in hopes of killing his two henchdwarves.
I take it back. Perhaps I should help Frelock.
Let's pull a Lightning McQueen and push Frelock faster!
You two feel it would be best to work together and decide to join forces.
Frelock fastens a clamping mechanism to the back of the PAHauler and manuevers his racer into webadicts front bumper,with a satisfying 'clink' the two racers become one.
a6,both cars have been combined into one 'super racer',they can be detatched by either Frelock or webadict as a free action.Cornering and speed rolls are modified by the best of the two vehicles.However driving styles will have no effect.
c3+3=6
s4+1=5
Awwww...
I turn on my afterburners.
You modify your racer with a crude afterburner mechanism,then you turn it on.
The afterburners flair up,but not much noticible effect it gained,it appears you'll need something to burn for the extra speed to kick in...
These afterburners will give you a +1 speed bonus provided that you 'feed' the furnace on the same turn,the furnace requires a sacrificed(or stolen) part or henchdwarf to power the afterburners for one turn.
a3,a nice pair of shiny afterburners,but they are going to need some fuel to work
c3
s6,progress two?=2(you certainly wish...)
i keep going, opening a path by ramming anything on my way while henchdwarf throws mugs.
i forgot that i'll use aggressive driving this turn. bash the scorpions!
With a unusual sluggishness you steer racing car A around the dangerous scorpions while henchdwarf drinks more ale.(Everyone knows a real dwarf stashes extra!)
a2,-1 speed
Scorpions!=6,you got away.lucky bastard
c3+3=6
s5+1=6,progress two?=5(as if you really need to)
I proceed onward, and I distract others with randomness of youtube
Flailing your arms wildly you blabber endlessly about something called 'youtube',other racers just assume your stark raving mad and drive on.
a3,What is this 'youtube'?
c3+2=5
s4+2=6,progress two?=3(nope)
Using Driving focus...mooooove forrrrwaaard.......yawn
Yes yawn,narration is useless...
Although you do progress a impressive two squares.
aX,yawn indeed
cX,you know the drill...
s6+3=6,progress two?=4(yes!)
Hmmn.
I offer to 'save'/hire one of frelock's henchdwarves for 100db. Only one!
If they fight over the offer, causing frelock to crash, so much the better, right?
Snickering evily,you take out 100 of your db,then you reach over and simply
give one of Frelock's henchdwarves the money while mumbling something about 'joining you'.
Then you proceed to drive off course nearly smashing into a sand dune.
a1,you give one of the henchdwarves 100 db,and he/she gives it to Frelock.How generous...
c1,-1 to crash roll
Crash?=4-1=3,almost!
s3+1=4

Oh an action.
I'll drive normally, due to the sand drift thing. Mad Olon will try to wrestle the landmine off. He's Mad you know.
While trying to slam through the sand drift,the !!Lagwagon!! gets bogged down with sand.I'm afraid your not going anywhere for now.
In lighter news,Olan suceeded in pulling off the landmine.
a5,Mine detached
