Corners

I Stopped In A Corner But It Did Not Count

Did you fully stop in all previous corners? All corner stops are required. If you miss a stop in one corner and end your turn in a second corner, that stop counts ONLY AGAINST THE FIRST CORNER. You still need to stop in the second corner and if you move out of it without stopping again, you will be overshooting.

I Exited A Corner And Crashed - Why?

Did you fully stop in all previous corners? If you skip Corner 1 and end your turn in Corner 2, that move only counts against Corner 1 and you STILL have to finish a turn in Corner 2. If you move out of Corner 2 at speed without stopping again in it, you will probably destroy your tires.

I Wasn't Able To Enter the Pits After Exiting A Corner

If you overshoot a corner, you are forced to travel in a straight line, so cars are unable to enter the pits on the same turn as overshooting a corner.

I Was Allowed To Change Lanes After Leaving A Corner

Some players have been confused by the line in the rules "When coming out a corner the car may not change lanes". Note that this line appears in the Overshooting section and is only intended to apply to cars that are overshooting a corner.

Collisions

A Car Ended It's Move Next To Another Car But No Collision Was Rolled

Collisions are not rolled when a car ends its move IN FRONT of another car.


Pit Stops

I Wasn't Able To Enter the Pits After Exiting A Corner

If you overshoot a corner, you are forced to travel in a straight line, so cars are unable to enter the pits on the same turn as overshooting a corner.
