The Race Forever

DOES THE RACE FOREVER IN AFRICA SPELL THE BEGINNING OF YOUR FAME AS A YOUNG RACE CAR DRIVER, OR THE END OF YOUR CAREER?your father began teaching you about cars and driving. He is a former racecar driver himself. You have planned this trip to Africa for months but at the last minute your dad has to cancel. You are on in Africa on your own, facing some of the toughest driving conditions in the world. And some of the most unscrupulous competitors... "This rally is special," Reupleau the race organizer tells you. "There are actually two races. One tests speed over fast roads in race-prepared cars. The other is a rough road race. Speed counts too, but you will be driving off-road vehicles. Cars and be started at half-hour intervals to avoid head-to-head racing. The courses are too narrow and sometimes too crowded with animals and people for that. Do you understand?" "Yes, thanks, I understand," you tell him. "Now you must choose which race you would like to start with." If you decide to drive the speed race as your first race, turn to page 4. If you choose to drive the rough road race first turn to page 67. The African countryside is filled with hazards and risks. The winner of the race will gain fame and even sponsorship. But flash floods, charging elephants, and the band of local guerrillas turn out to be the easy part. The drivers who will do anything- anything-to win may be the biggest danger of all.
