You got it! Fourth clue down!
Post Race III! The Race got a face lift and a whole new bag of tricks in this epic reincarnation, courtesy of Lee! By rolling dice and issuing posting challenges to break up the routine, Lee added a completely new dimension to the idea of the Race! People talked about this one for months afterwards, and the votes were in: this was how Post Race would be run from now on.
Clue number five!
Who of these racers is currently in seventh place?
Here we are going into the sixth lap, and BloodWolf takes the lead. Must be the awesome tunes he's spinnin'! Right on his tail is another Sonic aficionado, El, almost rear-ending the wolf. Biscuit is in third, and it seems he's getting comfortable with a higher place than before. The bread is getting serious here! Choobeh is turning a kegstandin- Ahem, OUTstanding performance for racing on a Slowbro. He's flirting with the lead like it was V101! Speaking of flirting, Pohatu is in fifth place. His shipwhale is holding up fairly well, but will it be able to survive the division of its master's attentions? Lonewolf has taken up Blood's favorite spot in sixth place. I guess that's wolf territory there. Tangrow, a favorite in earlier laps, has slipped to seventh! Is this the end for our kitten carried contestant? Let's hope they climb back up that slippery slope there. In eighth is Cendra, who keeps flickering back and forth. Will she buckle down and make it to the end, or will the cycle end in failure? Speaking of players that are cycling up and down, it seems Kuroboom is in the ill fated last spot! It seems that instead of amplifying Edgar's speed, the additional material just slowed the poor tortoise down! Jacques Cousteau seems to be trying to eat the megalodon's brains! In his hunger for grey matter, he's hit one of the controls on the treadmill... Sending him, Edgar, and 'boom plummeting into the ocean below! But wait, everybody. It seems a pod of friendly dolphins has approached to help out our unfortunate racer. They're drawing closer... Oh, wait. Sorry. False alarm. Those'd be squalodons, natural enemies of the megalodon! And they ain't Flipper! Well, I suppose that Kuroboom was not... dolphin-safe. As we come up on the seventh lap, a thick fog rolls in over the sea. What's the weather situation? Fogbank: All players send PMs titled 'Post Race' to the host, and their placing this lap is determined by the order the PMs arrive in. Oh, a devilish twist! How will this affect the race? We'll see in the minutes that follow! Lap 7, BEGIN![/size][/color]

Oh come on, dolphins? I'd beat a dolphin like a quadriplegic toddler with a heart murmur.
My wife said I'm riding a f*cking Megalodon and that it could swallow a dolphin whole.
EDIT: I noticed those were prehistoric whales. I change nothing of my statement. Bring those clowns on, I'll punch their blowholes off.

The fog's starting to thin, and I'm getting a good visual on our racers. In first place is Tangrow, easily keeping the competition behind him with a catlike grace. On his heels is, surprisingly, Choobeh. Moving at a rate like that, I'm pretty sure he's on a beer run! Biscuit is right behind the blazing 'bro, hauling some serious airship. Racers starting with B, with green names, and traveling in gigantic ships seem to be doing well as a rule, as BloodWolf is just inches behind the top three spots. For those who don't mind the illusion of the race being broken, Blood sent me his PM at THE EXACT SAME TIME as Biscuit. Lonewolf is back in the pack with Blood, leaving Pohatu to drop to an unprecedented sixth! Cendra is still creeping along in second to last place, walking the tightrope of disaster! Considering the odds of a killer weather effect rolling in, she's gonna need to shake that bad habit of hers fast! But where's El? Oh, there he is. He's zigzagging all over the place! He's way, waaayyy off the planned route of the race! He's going any which way but straight! He must be having the same sort of jetpack issues that doomed SV's chariot in an earlier race- Ooh. I guess that's an entirely different kind of jetpack malfunction! Sure was pretty, though. Can we get a weather check? Ordinary Day: No weather effect this round. What a bummer. Still nothing brutal. But, considering that after this lap, there's a 50% chance of second to last blowing up, I'm sure something interesting will happen! Lap 8, BEGIN![/b][/color]

Wait, Biscuit and I sent PMs at the exact same time? Awesome. Biscuit and I are officially bros now.
What would happen if the final lap was a tie like that?

Six month wait on Lee, followed by him just saying "Screw it, tiebreaker vote."

Lol, I kinda wish the post race was done a couple of weeks ago or so so that I would actually have the time to actively be on my laptop all the time...
