Gaslands - Quick Introduction Game

We played our first introductory game of Gaslands on Friday and had a blast.  We played a three gate race and the three of us each had a single vehicle costing about 20 cans.  We played on a vinyl mat for Gale Fore Nine's TANKS game that I received as a Black Friday add-on one year, and it seems to have worked well despite being designed for 15mm models.
 
My vehicle, Windburner, did not fare so well.  First I did not shift-up in the first activation.  Then in over-doing it to catch up, it eventually crashed into a building and wiped-out.  In the end, Juice won the race using Flameblaster, barely edging out Roberge's mini-gun-armed buggy. The buggy got a few good shots off, but didn't inflict enough damage before the race ended.

It was a fun introductory game and I'm excited to try it again soon with additional vehicles and players.
