Whoever crosses the finishing line first atter twolaps wins the game. Players may make a pit stopbetween the first and seconcl laps to regain the WPpoints they lost cluring the first rouncl.

At the encl of the First lap a player may decide tomake a pit stop to regain all the WP he has lost.There is no speed limit in the pit lanes. It is also notnecessary to roll the exact number needed to reachone's own pit.

To enter the pits it is sufficient to roll the minimumnumber required or higher using the die correspond-ing to the selected gear. The car receives all 18 WPback and awaits his next turn to start from the oits in4thgear (maximum).

The games have some special features.therefore read the following sections.

In the basic rules for road races, the drivers ancl carsonly differ in appearance. The values ancl symbolson the score carcls are not taken into account. How-ever, a clriver may use his nitro Fuel injection oncea lap having rollecl the gear clie. This gives him amovement bonus equivalent to the gear he is in atthat moment (1 space in l't gear, 2 spaces in Znd gear,etc.). This bonus must be used completely.The player then places a damage marker on theclesignated space on the score carcl.. '

the black clie. IF he rolls a number between 1 ancl4 he loses 1 WP. It is possible to avoid clamage bychanging lane (see "Driving cocle on the straights").

There is a speecl limitin force in the wholetown, but it is great funtearing past the policestation. Every timea driver crosses thisline his speed mustbe recorclecl (e.g. thenumber shown by thegear die, multipliecl by1O). When all clrivershave crossecl this line,the fastest driver gets'2 WP (maximum totalpoints: 18 WP). In thecase of a clraw, the firstdriver to have passedthe police stationreceives the bonus.

The spaces underneath the tunnel are not naviga-ble. When a car leaves a space with a tunnel sym-bol it is placecl on a space with the same numberon the other side of the tunnel.

lf two laps are to be completed on this circuit, eachcar receives 10 WP when it crosses the finishing linefor the first time (maximum total points: 18 WP).
