Here is another bonus round segment from "Classic Concentration." This time, the contestant has 75 (seventy-five) seconds to complete the bonus round to win the car. Match 7 items to win. Did he finish? Alex Trebek hosts.
@@ericwardell6639 With a 75 second clock, planning strategy to win a certain car is feasible. When the clock is 35-50 seconds, certainly, that's a strategy that could mean not winning.
General rule.. A contestant can only attempt to go to the bonus round 5 times. This was a long drought on unsuccessful wins in the bonus round by different contestants. Base time was 35 seconds. Each time the bonus round was not won/not successful, 5 seconds added each time until there is a winner. When someone wins, it goes back to the base time of 35 seconds.
@@pressminI believe towards the end of the shows run that contestants would have their own time bank and build time for every game they won and there were times when 5 bonus seconds were offered as a prize
