Are you ready to jump in next?

Setting Up the Track

Place the starting line corner track card and three more corner tiles out, forming the corners of the track. Shuffle the track cards together, then each player draws and places a track card between the corners until a full track is created. The longer the track, the longer the game.

Player Setup

Each player chooses a colour and places their race car onto the chequered starting position on the start line corner card. Each player gets one player momentum card, and sets their speed marker on the lowest value (1) on their momentum guage. Each player receives a starter deck of ten “Accelerate” cards and places their starter deck face down in front of them – this is called their ‘Draw Pile’ or ‘Library’. Each player then draws 5 cards from their Draw Pile into their hand.
