ABSTRACT:
A method of playing a racing board game. The board comprises a race course having a starting position, a finish line and six lanes. The lanes are divided into a plurality of spaces. There are six distinguishable playing pieces and each player is assigned a playing piece and a lane. Six standard cubical dice, each die numbered from "1" to "6" to correspond to the six playing pieces, are used to determine movement of the playing pieces. The board further comprises shaded spaces on the lanes and six separate storage locations for placing chips. The storage locations correspond to the six finishing positions, e.g. 1st place, 2nd place, . . . , 6th place. When a playing piece lands on a shaded space, that player, to his advantage, must place a chip in a storage location in which he thinks his piece will finish the race. As the race progresses, the player whose piece crosses the finish line first is given all the chips stored in the storage location corresponding to 1st place. As successive pieces reach the finish line, the players likewise receive all the chips in the storage locations corresponding to their respective finishing order. The player with the most chips wins.
