Q. Play By Mail and remote turn based Car Wars

For our PBEM, we have a person designated as referree, who accepts 1 phase at a time, sometimes parts of a phase, ie, movement then combat. We use standard 2.5 edition terms, like, D1 bend left, d3 drift right, etc, always oriented to the driver of the car. After every phase, or whatever he has updated, he posts that to a web site. There is no automation being done by a computer, aside from dice being rolled.

We have been trying to think up a way to "automate" it more, but we have not found an easy way of doing it.
