Racing Mechanics

Hi gang! I received a few compliments for the little system I whipped together for Racing — Thank You So Much!! to those who participated and offered kind words both during and in its aftermath! After puzzling over the rolling mechanics, I think there's a ton of room for storytelling creativity — just keep in mind that a skill of 36 (proficient, max non--QP level in chargen!) results in a skill check against 76, so the chances are weighed heavily in the player's favor when skill checks are involved!
