Thunder Alley (Turn 2-09: pirate mollie)

[Cybele]

Oops.

[RedCoyote]

Okay, okay. I missed that rule. So we have to use all of our cars before reusing another one? One second.

[RedCoyote]

Using the same card.

In that case, I'll move

Red #29

left into the occupied space and then left again into the open space in the top (innermost) lane. Then I'll use the other 3MP on

Red #43

and move left into the top (innermost) lane and forward 2 spaces.

It's event time! The race is unpredictable, and who knows what's going to happen out on track...

[JDGA]

First off, Pink #5 earns a Turn Leader token.

As for the event itself:

Tight

NO CAUTION

The car with the most suspension wear changes one of their suspension wear tokens to permanent. If there is a tie, decide at random.

Aronis... that's your Blue #4, I'm afraid.
There is no caution, so the pack stays spread out. Now it's time to decide if you would like to pit any of your cars to remove their temporary wear (at the cost of sending them back five spaces), and whether you would like to keep your fourth card or discard it for a new one. Please PM me!
