It's too bad I'm so horribly lost or I'd be excited for another turn haha. I should be able to figure it out, though?

So I need 5 of these 9 words:

Brother
Chip (not red)
Fiddle
Pit (not red)
Rabbit
Stock
Tick (not red)
Trunk
Whale (not blue)

I can obviously eliminate Whale because I'm not guessing it twice, so I need to eliminate 3 more, then make sure the whole picture fits.

Pit/Stock/Trunk are the 3 most obvious...but NASCAR cars don't have trunks...

1 of these words should be a toy, 1 or more might have to do with weight, & I need to solve for red's last 2 words & black's last word & figure out why they didn't do a 2 clue to end the game.

Other NASCAR options:

Brother - There are some brothers (like the Busch's), but meh.
Chip - Chip Ganassi has been a long-time team owner...
Fiddle - Toy fiddles could be a thing & never really bought it for Italian...don't see a NASCAR connection.
Rabbit - The lead car is kind of like a rabbit. I think maybe you go Pacecar if you're going for pit/stock/rabbit? Is that 1 word or 2? There's a red line under it. Meh.
Tick - Like the rev meter? Seems like a bit of a stretch, but who knows?

Brother


If 1 of these is wrong, I'm screwed anyway. There's no way I'm getting there on these being NASCAR words.

I think the clue to get me off Pit/Stock/Trunk is just "car - 0".

So I think there's gotta be a reason for NASCAR? I guess the question is, how much does nails know about NASCAR & how much does he expect me to know?

& what is going on with weight...

I think I've solved black's last word, but I don't think that helps me right now.

Blah.

Tick

I don't see any possible blockers to stop a "car - 0" if trunk is ours so...

Trunk

Pacecar has to be 2 words...

NASCAR =

Stock/Pit/Rabbit

or

Stock/Pit/Chip

Maybe both? I think racing - 0 works better for rabbit, though...

So YOLO,

Rabbit

lol why'd you have to use a word that is slightly ambiguous to make me actually think instead of Baluga

Whale

good cluing bud!

lol couldn't be arsed researching other types of whales

GG was hoping you'd realise Whale had to be ours last turn since it didn't fit into any of reds clues, didn't want to risk saying 'watery' or something for Whale + Mud incase you said Pit which was the assasin

But was pretty confident we would get a third turn with the words left on their lists so was all good

Whale could have still been the assassin though if Pit was blue and there was no way to know at the time (pretty sure this is the case).

I also just assumed you'd never give me a 1 clue unless you were confident we were getting a third turn.

Great first turn to put everyone in a rough spot

Aye was tough to think of a word to clue Whale + Mud without throwing Pit into the mix, maybe was overthinking it a little, if I said 'water/watery - 2' what would you have gone for? Stock was up there as well which i've clued for water before

Whale + Mud - Pit = ? no idea lol

ya definitely risky blockers. Stock is not a word I normally associate with water but I know you've clued it before. It's like a kind of broth right?

don't have a great clue off the top of my head for Whale/Mud but not Pit/Stock, would have to think long about it haha.

Yeah stock is the thing you make for soups/stews etc to add flavour, animal bones simmering in water usually
