Reviews/Remarks

H Wallride
Short tricky race with tight turns, narrow alleyways and an absolute cleanly built wallride. Switch works perfect in an Entity if you graze the containers right. Unfortunately I find myself bumping in them to hard to mess up the switch, but that's entirely my fault. Good solid race!

Blister Magic
Oh my... give me an Osiris on a wallride and it's a recipe for disaster. The Entity is unfortunately the only car I know how to control on a wall. So a lot of respawns for me in this one... can not comment very much on it, because of my own inability to aim the Osiris at the switch part...

Blue Ribbon
nice build... have played this one three times now. I find myself doing the dill billy flip much more consistent if I let of the gas a bit before hitting it. still very tricky to hit all the transitions right. good thing the last wallride is made of vertical containers which makes it much easier to adjust

Octopuss Spiral 2
I know my spirals, but this one was really tricky hitting all the transitions right. First transition from vertical to horizontal is too far to the left. You have to yank your steering way too hard to get in there. Then you immediately have to steer hard in the opposite direction in order to hit the downward vertical spiral. Dummyproofing on exit comes unexpected... have to steer hard to the left again to not bump straight into it. All in all great build, only the transitions at wrong positions.


Air Jordan
I like the part where your car jumps

Took longer to build than expected... tested the sh*t out of it with friends... quite happy with the result.. that annoying invisible ramp is visible now... big thanks to Leeds Monkey for helping out with that... he actually rebuilt a small race at the same location where the ramp turned invisible and tried around until he found a fix


Boss Spiral
Clevinhos first horizontal spiral. Not the smoothest spiral, but my Zentorno still had no problem getting around. I would remove the lower dummy proof containers on the transition to wallride as I don't see any real purpose for them. It's too easy to bump into them approaching the wallride at full speed. The race itself seemed pretty random and quickly built after the spiral was finished



ABX
Solid race, but very chaotic at times with 30 players playing on contact.


db Racing Wall
Very clear winner for me this week. Not being a big wallride fan, I have to say I love this race. Have replayed it often already. Awesome short track and perfectly built wallrides with a beautiful transition from wall to wall in the building gap. Very smooth and a pleasure to go at it again and again. You gotta have nerves of steel to win this one. As you approach lap 8 your hands will begin to sweat and your heartrate will rise. The pressure will build up every consecutive lap. The question is not whether you can master the wallride but whether you can handle the pressure. Very exciting race and an absolute keeper for the bookmarks!


FL40 Train Wallride
Awesome build and nice high speed race with great checkpoints. Great mix of normal containers and train cars assembled in a way that the normal containers will prevent your car getting hung up on the ladders of the train cars. I find the transition from ascending wallride to normal wallride very tricky at such high speeds but that's just due to my own skill level. Very good race!


Brawlin Time 2
Good Brawler race with a nice track! I would place first checkpoint further away from the finish as it won't register in full lobbies. Would be nice in customs, but then again, people don't read descriptions and it wouldn't be a Brawler race anymore...


JJ Golf MegaWall
Very smooth wallride. Great improvement from previous submissions. I did find myself exiting the wallride too fast on almost every lap and slamming in the red containers. You have to know to exit low and slow otherwise you're predestined to slam into the containers damaging your car. One checkpoint towards the end of the race is misleading and made me miss the next checkpoint a couple of times when we played prior to Raceday Wednesday. All in all great improvement JJ. Keep it up!


Roller Monstercoaster
Amazing stunt! The type of stunt where you go :"What the f*ck just happened here???" Well built and perfectly planned out. The race around the stunt had too many issues for me so this one missed my vote. Landing zone of stunt exit can mess you up, the downhill part to the next ramp must be taken slow to not miss the ramp, if you hit the ramp towards the street too fast you land way off track and have to drive back to the next checkpoint, if you hit the ramp too slow you'll be trapped in back yards....


Panto Villa
Very original race! Had some good laughs when we played it for the first time. Awesome Stuntcoaster for the Panto which is brilliant when it works. There were several issues with the race as a whole which made this one miss my vote: some unclear or even hidden checkpoints. I wouldn't place checkpoints directly behind corners or buildings. You don't see them and have to use your minimap to figure out where to go. Gas Troll tanks. Inconsistancy of the main stunt. I think the reason for this are the line up containers. You get pushed into the red containers on the right side of the ramp too early and too hard. This will cause your car to bounce off the containers to the left and not be alligned properly for the inverter. would probably work perfectly if the angle of the first container was reduced a bit and the container subsequently placed a bit to the back. All in all great submission in a great area of the map. Very Nice!

Narrow Profit Margin
I found this pretty confusing when I first played it, but once you know where to go it's all good.


Vinewood Wall n Loop
Great race Simen! Great location and absolute smooth wallride. Loved the combination of the natural wall to container wall at full speed. The loop is tricky though as you approach it at high speed and have to turn into it. Not easy to get your car straight and alligned for the loop at that point.

Blue Spiral
Awesome! Clean build, pretty tricky, very fun. As has been said before the jump over the bridge is a bit dodgy. One of my absolete favs this week.

I remember when we had Seines "Another Bloody Spiral" in the event when spirals just popped up. We were in that race for a good 30 minutes until the timer started and almost half of all participants left the playlist. We couldn't do it back then and look where we are now. Blue Spiral with even narrower containers finished in a matter of minutes with a full lobby
