To tell you the truth your right that that direction should be part of the
challenge, but some of these kids just don't listen! And there is aways some
parent that wants their 2 year old to race, and I can't get them to turn it
the right way at all. So I would like to shorten my pre-race speech and take
out the part about direction and just say "wait for green and turn the
knob!"...LOL

ps. yeah Death Race they like, we had a computer "bug" one time and instead
of the RCX returning the train it launched it off the table at full
speed...the kids though it was real funny...I didn't, well not at first I
didn't :)
