Yay for another win.  
I may be able to close the year with 23 in my resume and then retire.

While it was still fresh in my mind, I wanted to see if I could beat this game without crashing.  I had beaten every stage without crashing, just never in the same run.  I played a few more times (a bit less aggressively in the later stages) and managed to do it.  I didn't break 67,000 like I thought I would, but certainly did better than playing aggressively the whole way through.  I think I've really gotten the hang of the final course.  The second section doesn't seem too bad as long as you get don't let three cars line up next to each other.  The fifth course is starting to feel like the most difficult one.  Those super slow cars in the right lane (that can move to the middle lane super quickly) make me never want to leave the left lane.  At least they give you a decent amount of extra time.  I'm pretty sure I've gotten more time bonus points there with one or two crashes than when I played cautiously and didn't crash at all.
