Gates were assigned randomly. Following are the gate numbers as well as the walkarounds. If you see an error please let me know immediately. If you would like to add a vehicle or crew name let me know.

Here's a shot of the dice I carry with me, in case you're interested. They are part of a pack of dice I bought at a Barnes & Noble on clearance. 75 cents for eight of them, I think. They are Fantasy Flight and I bought them when I was looking for X-Wing stuff but before I learned about Edge of the Empire. :-)


And here's the starting map - 


Turn 1 Phase 0 - starting speed

You can choose any speed up to 30 mph - now starting a 24 hour clock for this.

Good luck to all! Most of all, have fun! :-)

Back from Delay

I just sent an email to the players and spectators with a full update.

For the sake of the public notice, this is to serve as notice that I AM getting back to this event and will have it up and running ASAP...

I'm still waiting on designs and finalizing the map, but have committed to getting back on this NOW - it's been offline for way too long... :-)

Kyle has a copy in Indy - I will have a copy locally...

Not sure when your FLGS will have it, but there is a LIMITED number in Austin and a LIMITED number went to the distribution outlets...

In an attempt to make this as close to a table top simulation as possible, I have replaced the map with one I discovered as part of the Car Wars Classic PDF...

It is full size, so it was just a point of replacing the layer in Photoshop with this one...
