After reviewing the rules, I am a little confused. If combat speed is 18" and cruising speed is 36" but you can fire 4 weapons at full BS either way, why is there a distinction between the two speeds? Also, if you elect to move flat out, can you pivot up to 90 degrees before you do so? Or is the" straight line" drawn from your current facing?

The distinction is there for locked velocity. As I'm away from my books I cannot give an answer for the second question.

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

Forward in a straight line.
No pivot.

Awesome, thanks guys.
Another thing, for cruising speed, is it 19"-36"? Or do you have to move exactly 36"?

also worth pointing out that if you do get locked velocity while moving at cruising speed you are locked in at 36" not what you previously moved (see BRB FAQ) which I found quite comical myself.

Well it stops arguments like 'Did you move 27.65 inches last turn or 27.66 inches!?'
