Sustained fire is a help. Keep in mind that the way the bonus is worded is a bit wonky as to what a target is. The most common interpretation (which is how it was originally worded in the earlier edition of the rules) is that it means the same vehicle/pedestrian/building/etc. and not the specific side of a vehicle.
If everyone is still having trouble, give the cars a targeting computer to give them a more accurate shot.
Feel free to keep asking questions here - there's a lot of knowledgeable players willing to offer help.

Uh...Yeah haha about that ^^; I was doing based only on the targets speed, and reading it now I'm having a hard time understanding the arc positions, so some examples would be heavily appreciated!

Whoever is running the game tracks the current phase, and it's everyone's own responsibility to make sure they move when they are supposed to. It also tracks handling status and lets you know when you are and aren't safe, and if not what your control roll is. It makes the game run quite a lot faster and eliminates a lot of wasted time in players repeatedly asking one another how fast they're going. |
Thank you for the link!

Vehicle selection: The _Hotshot_ and _Joseph Special_ are Div. 15s; why were you using a Division 10 design?

We didnt make characters so eeveryone had no bonuses or penalties. Also we just went with what sounded cool and didnt take much into consideration aha.
