Editing F-Zero RPG/F-Zero RPG version 2 (section)

====Before the race====
Not all action happens on track - a lot can happen before machines assume their positions at the starting line.

Before the race players are given roughly 5 minutes in hangar. While there, PC may attempt any actions that are possible in Character Scale scenes,
talk to fellow pilots, meddle with your car or play the crowd.

-If one chooses to upgrade a car he is exempt from the rest of the scene and must pass the mechanics check equal to (track's star rating +3). If he
succeeds, he can increase either '''Max speed''' by 20 , '''Acceleration''' by 10/10 , or '''Handling''' by +1.

-Playing the crowd nets you additional points depending on accolade roll over (track's star rating +3). No, you can't go into negatives. Depending on how 
(and if) playing the crowd is roleplayed, Announcer may add a bonus to roll.

-You, of course, can brawl with fellow racers, trying to decrease their stats - however this incurs 500-point penalty.
