8 track cards (from a total of 48 cards) are used to build a track. Each player gets 5 tempo cards. All players play tempo cards simultaneously and try to get in front of the field. 6 cars are NON-player cars - these are called 'Alte Hasen' (old pros) and are controlled by a rule mechanism - the same rules are used when playing this race alone - there are always seven cars in the race (one old pro for example when 6 players are playing) The chips are earned for good maneuvering and may be used in bluffing when attacking other cars. - BoardGameGeek
