NFS: Challenge #61
Well, it's taken me a couple of months to finish 59 & 60 but I got there!
However, #61 seems to have multiple possible routes. If someone could tell
me the best one 'cos whichever way I go I can never make it to TB #3 :-(
Thanks.

Never mind! I'm getting it. However, it is interesting to note that if I
fail to make any TB with less than 3 seconds to go I don't get to the next
one in time; which makes the inference of "get there by 0 and you'll do ok"
timer totally kind-of a lie!

If this is the one through the Petersburg (Highway 99) tunnel pair,
then take the left tunnel and cross over to the right tunnel (same
method for either direction through the tunnels).

MW - Challenge #63
I've finally figured-out why this challenge is so hard! In other challenges,
for stage 3 to 4 you usually get around 40 seconds but this one only gives
you 20. No wonder it's bloody-near impossible to do :-( Any tips? You got a
video of this one, Jeff? ;-)

The stages don't really matter, you need to get ahead of the toll booths
and stay ahead for the entire run. Getting an early lead on them can help.
I made a video, traffic was terrible, getting really bad right at the end,
just made it with about 4 seconds to spare.

Thanks Jeff. Knew I could count on you :-D Like I said, to me at least,
there's simply not enough time between stages 3 & 4 'cos I *never* make it!
Will keep trying :-(

Are you using speedbreaker? That can help a lot. Here's a sample career toll
booth run with the elise:
