So much carnage! Can't wait to see the next round!
- The other six teams will race this coming week, and hopefully by the following week the last of the teams will be here, then once all the teams have raced at least once, it'll be time for everyones first death race. That will separate the men from the boys and possibly separate a few chassis' as well :) — Chaos_Canyon
that was total insanity
amazing racing!
- It was so much fun with this one, especially when we had two people try the shortcut. What a way to open season 2! — Chaos_Canyon
My team is delayed, but it will be on the way. Even if I have to wait till season 3, the Ozark Mountian Slayers will be there.
This is some awesome racing! Fixing to go ahead and start on my clan for when Season 3 is announced!
Considering building a war rig, but I think I'm slightly over max length .....
- I think you might be ok. Just tuck any guns in so they don't stick out over the ends and you should make it — StrayDog
- make the nose heaviest, and reduce weight backwards, a centering spring out of piano wire can let it bend but self center, preventing jack knives. My war wagon for 905 used a pair of piano whiskers (thinner than axles) that around the front cab post. thinner wire more movement, shorter/stiffer gets starts to bind. build it!!! — dr_dodge
- I figure putting a military tank on each flat should provide plenty of firepower, and a car launcher on the back for a dropped weapon. — SpyDude
- Hahahaha. Just a shade too long to fit in the start gate. I'd have to sit most of the trailers on top of each other to get it in there. — Chaos_Canyon
- Put it up here just for fun. The truck and all those trailers come out to about a full 36" (914.4mm) long. — SpyDude
- I might be able to build a loading ramp out th back to store the trailers, but not sure if it'll clear the gate before it closes as it's programmed to only open for about 2 seconds. — Chaos_Canyon
Whaaaat? Im bottom of the list? I KNEW i should've used Rocket Fuel instead of that environmentally friendly synthetic crap....time to get The Skidmarx team into a fighting mood (insert some random angry face emoji here)
- light it up! — dr_dodge
- It's very early in the comp, so anything can happen yet. I'm thinking a death race should sort the weak teams and give the strong ones a boost. And who knows, there may even need to be a gas truck race at some point if teams start dropping off (or into the toxic pit) — Chaos_Canyon
- I am 1 above you. My cars didn't do well at all. The F=150 Lightning seems to have been a bad choice, and they aren't very fast. — johnson9195
so looking forward to y'all destroying each other
good luck to all

I need to talk to earl lee about team tactics!!!
- I need to talk to Earl Lee about what the hell he juiced up those axles with .... — SpyDude
- Couldn't believe he shut out his team mate like that. You would be miles ahead of everyone if he was paying attention. — Chaos_Canyon
The scoreboard has been updated with today's race results plus the audience vote winner, Dirk Funk & the Funky Boys, who win an extrta barrel of fuel.
Carnage Crew took the audience vote last week and picked up a bonus barrel of fuel (they're also picking up a few votes again this week too). A couple of other teams also won bonus barrels for winning all four of their races and one team has run out of fuel and are waiting to see if they get a lifeline to get back in again. This has really started to spread the field out and we could see some more eliminations soon if those lower teams start chalking up some wins!
Here's the current leaderboard. Bullet Club absolutely leading the way so far and Carnage Crew moved into second place with a nice series of runs but anything can happen from here.
I'm still waiting for them to include pyrotechnics. Season 3 brings hope. I'm kidding, one of the most creative tracks going. Made me watch the Road Warrior again.
Fantastic! So much fun to watch. I love the format.
