1 on 1 Viper Racing Tournament Winners!

I'd just like to take a moment to publicly congratulate the winners in
this tournament.

The Professional Championship was won by "Irieite", a guy who also holds
record breaking replays on several tracks. Irieite routinely smashes
the records set by MGI, and does so during a real tournament race. If
your best laps are still far off any record lap times, you might want to
check out the relays at our web site.

Also, Congrats go out to "Gooz", who won the Amateur Championship.

Thanks to everyone who helped out and made this tournament the best and
most fun event it could be.

The 2nd tourney is starting on Sunday January 24 and there's still time
to sign up if interested. MGI has released a beta multiplayer patch for
the next tournament, see the web page for more info. It improves an
already great multiplayer game.

Hello,

The replays are there, just click on the records button. These are real
multiplayer tournament races, and a text file is included with each one
describing how the race went. Each one lists the best lap time along
with the top speed and date set.

Cya,

I'd REALLY like to see one of Sunset Mesa and Rock Island comes to mind.

Why don't we get names like this in GPL circles? :-)

Cheers!

Those tracks are too long IMHO. Races seem much more fun with more quick
laps. Those two tracks seem like a country tour not a timed track. :)

Well, check back in a few weeks. We haven't done those tracks in the
first tournament, but they're lined up for the second one. It should
be interesting since those are a couple of the hardest tracks in the
game.

I agree. I cringe when anyone on Kali wants to race Mesa. I can't decide what's
worse, getting pushed over a cliff or spinning out in the s-curve every single
time. Arrrrrrgh! :)
