This race is somewhat easier than most, to try to get more people qualified for the htc prize giveaway, which will happen at the end of Season 35, per the htc rule set found here: http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,361319.0.html


*1 and *2 Denote History Lessons as follows:

*1 The USS Solace is a hospital ship with red crosses
painted on her.

*2 The 3 ships on Battle Ship Row you pass on your left will be USS Vestal (AR-4), USS West Virginia (BB-48) and USS Oklahoma (BB-37).
The 5 ships on your right will be USS Nevada (BB-36), USS Arizona (BB-39), USS Tennesee ( BB-43), USS Maryland (BB-46, USS Neosho (AO-23), and USS California (BB-34).
In real life, The USS Arizona is still at her mooring, and the USS Missouri (BB-63) is moored where the USS Tennesee was on 7 December, 1941.
No Ki-61-I-Tei's were at Pearl, hence the name, The Didn't Happen 450.
