Choreographers Note:
The more advanced dancer can complete full turns instead of half turns,
they will still end up facing the correct line of dance to start next wall.
* Added styling, move body up and down whilst bumping hips
** Billy Curtis performs "The Race Is On" at Line Dance Events,
it's a bit faster but great fun to do
