Description

Welcome to the Daytona 500 and life in the fast lane! It's a fast track fight to the finish. Officially licensed by NASCAR, six race cars hug the inside curve as you blast past another opponent around the big Daytona 500 loop. It is three spaces wide except for a sweeping curve at either end. In the curves the track narrows to two lanes, the outer of which is a passing lane requiring twice as many movement points to use and in which a car may not end its turn. Movement points come from play of the special deck of cards.

Selecting a card from your hand in your turn, you move each of the cars on the card the prescribed number of spaces, trying to position your own car or cars most advantageously while leaving your opponents blocked. Before each race the six cars are auctioned off, and you bid for them based on the cards in your hand. Suggested game length is three races (each race about 20 minutes), enough to give the luck of the draw a chance to even out. It is a battle to the finish! Beat your opponents to the finish line with the most money.
