If the number of laps used previously (or set via a command line

option) was too small, a leader could 'finish' the race, and while
no message would be printed, its distance calcuation become incorrect.
To workd around this issue (and to avoid making the code in
linear_world even more convoluted) I just set a large number
for the number of laps in case of a FTL race.
