I just couldn't get that hop over the bumps. By far the most frustrating thing on that track, in my opinion.

I made a canyon track because the car reminds of the coast car and I love that thing.

I have no idea if this is a good canyon track and, as usual, I probably have a horrible AT but I think it's pretty fun.

I like it--it's a keeper for me! And your AT is pretty solid, because I haven't been able to get gold yet. I spent about 10 minutes on it, and the best I was able to do was 45 and change. There's something about that area around the third CP and the turn immediately after that that seriously fucks with my head for some reason. It took me about five runs to just get through it cleanly--I have major trouble judging speed/space there and when I need to turn. I think it might be something to do with the lighting/shadows, but I'm not sure. Anyway, not a complaint--I'm just curious if it affects other people the same way.

This track reminds me a little of a track I made a while back for canyon with a similar feel. You may enjoy it. :)

Great job guys!


Yeah, I really enjoyed doing the vs. cams when 1st and 2nd were nicely close and nail-bitey. :)

Yeah, it's much more enjoyable!
And maybe this track was more competitive because it was all twisty and mazey, so even if you happened to crash on a wall it wouldn't really matter because there's probably an U-turn ahead anyway.

Derpetology was a loving meat grinder though. Much like in Baconic Rites and Datastream if you so much left the gas pedal for too long you were presented with subpar speed and awful trajectories for half the race.

Just submitted a track for the Trackmania Exchange MTC (monthly track contest). The rules were that you could only use track parts that were 1x1 in size (i.e. none of the larger curves or other bits).

I think it turned out pretty decently...and the grass sliding section was partly inspired by Fill In The Blank's track. :)

It's always interesting seeing the battle of the Entropist ghosts, as they jockey for position and speed up or slow down in little ways.

Sorry about the delay, but I've recorded all the remaining replays this weekend, so things should roll more smoothly now. :)

That was a beautiful run by me on track 7. That was probably my 5th or 6th run total on that one, then I got busy for the rest of the week.

Goddamn, I hated the latter half of Derpetology so much. For almost the entire track I was just behind Entropist, but in the Group A video you can see the exact crash that cost me everything right at the end. I was utterly done with the track at that point though. I could've had that one!

Wow awesome duel for first on track 7 sabby and ghettowizard. You guys took completely different lines on several of those turns but never really gained or lost that much time against each other.

Also not surprised at all entropist took a huge lead less that 5 seconds into the goontrack haha.

Hahaha, I completely botched(top ten wise) my Goontrack 2 run only to regain ten positions on the last loving jump. I thought I was hot stuff but it was just a decent run with a goofy finale. Seriously, I plonked awkwardy on the finish line with half a tire and that was it.
I already posted this but it sums up perfectly my emotions after that run https://youtube.com/watch?v=U3RogocRxEU

I don't know if you planned this everyone, but at ~9:00 in the Afghan Warcraft video, five Entropists go upside-down to the timing of a cymbal crash-paired crescendo in the music. Well done. :golfclap:

If I had to time the music to the videos I'd only be done by 2016, so consider it a happy coincidence.

Grawl is busy with work so I did the editing for the last 5 videos. If the music selection's been sub-par, now you know why. :v:

Goddamn that goon track is ridiculous. But I like it for showing what to expect from TrackMania - you have to fall off things just right and be leaning at a certain angle to catch the road.
