Round 2 race 4: "Booster Bucket" driven by Wiluki Kerman, timed 13:18 in the first round. What a drama for Booster Bucket, they added 3 extra rockets on the frontside, but it seems the rockets got no juice...14:68 Learn something new everyday.... I kinda feel sorry for them, should I give them a 2nd chance ? TBC

Nice, would you please park it here as a official entree ? : Round 2 race 3: "Helter Skelter" driven by Alsy Kerman, timed 11.62 in the first round. That was an awesome race 07:36, but I think they need to work on their braking... Amazing the damage was minimal, they should be having the car fixed up in no time. Next up: "Booster Bucket". TBC

Sure, why not, interesting concept.

Nice, you are the first contestant. Thanks, let's make it 10.000 ! NEXT UP: Round 2 race 3: "Helter Skelter" driven by Alsy Kerman, timed 11.62 in the first round. Small changes here, they added a dragchute, 2 moarrr rockets in the back and 2 sepratron thingy's on the side. We haven't seen these sepratrons in action before, If they help I'll suspect the other teams are going to copy that design. TBC

Ah, I see. @Gapone No mods, not even visual ones, the main reason is that if I allow it, more people are going to want to use mods and I'll end up downloading all these mods making a mess trying to get them to work etc etc...

I've got it, it's it in, goodluck. Restock ? I don't know what you mean, can you explain ?

@Jacke I did 6 runs with your Rocket Sled 4, exploded into the ground every time.... Good news though, it's fast and got a new record, The bad news, since it keeps "fireballing" on my nice runway it is disqualified... I bet a bit more tuning will make the RS-4 the fastest car so far, goodluck with that. Edit, fyi, all crashes happened before crossing the finish.

I'm about to take over this forum with 8000 members Ow, no idea who is the guy above me -10/01

ROUND 2, RACE 2: Trasy Kerman in her "Trigger Happy" car. Very nice race by team Trigger Happy, they avoid the risks and made a safe pass. 09:40 As you can see in the video the 2 front rocket engines failed (don't know why?) but 6 rockets keeps them in the lead. TBC

Today's visitors: Dragweek at the KSC Want to see their times ?

ACTION IN THE PITLANE ! Whahahahaha ! So every team was watching Panic Attack's race and right after the crash they ran to their cars and started removing rockets....moarrr rockets doesn't seem to help.... That's too bad for team Panic Attack, having the fastest time ment they had to start first in the second round, they took the risk adding too much rockets and they lost while the other teams learned from Team P.A's mistake. Thug life. Next up: Not many changes on this one, added 2 moarr rockets in the front and 2 in the back, raised the chassis a bit and added a parachute. TBC

Ok, looks like team Panic Attack is ready to go, as I suspected they beefed up their car adding moarrr rockets . . . 14 in total. They stripped the engine, the lights, the exploding antenna's (which I liked ) tuned the brakes, removed the steeringwheel and added brake shutes. ROUND 2, RACE 1: Nelrod Kerman in his "Panic Attack". TBC

Tip: 31 screenshots in a single post might be a little too much . . . I love the pictures, but in my opinion less is more.

As the teams are working on their cars, we have time for a TF 1000 race, next up is @Jacke's car, I took the liberty of giving his car a cool name : "SERIOUS BUZZINES" Great run, great time ! Kudos for calculating your fuel for 1000 meter run. I guess @NBDesigns has some work to do.

Today was race day.

No restrictions as long as it has wheels that tough the ground and your car has breaks so it can drive another day without exploding. And no mods. RESULTS AFTER ROUND 1: 1: Panic Attack: 09.98 2: Trigger Happy: 10.78 3: Helter Skelter: 11.62 4: Booster Bucket: 13.18 5: Sledge Hammer: 14.26 6: Master Blaster: 14.74 7: Black Mail: 14.96 8: Trouble Maker: DNF Now that the cars are allowed to be tuned I expect some wacky cars with lots of rockets and parachutes. Remember, in round 2 the cars are not allowed to test, it's build and go. First up in round 2: Panic Attack. We will give the teams some time to tune up their cars and we will be back soon with round 2, race 1.

So right after letting @NBDesigns's Vomit Comet run, all the other teams bosses busted into my office saying the Comet was build for dragracing and not a real rat rod. I kinda had to agree with them and I desided that I'm putting the Comet in a new category: The Top Fuel 1.000 The TF1000 will host cars build to go superfast, sorry to say @Jacke, I'm not going to have entrees using mods to keep things fair. I hope you will come up with a new car, I'd love to race your creation. @NBDesigns you might wanna make a new car too . . .

Not bad Booster Bucket, the small contestants seem to do well, lot's of work needs to be done for all teams for round 2. Our last entry of today: Race #9 "Vomit comet", designed by @NBDesigns TBC

Ah, I only have Kerbinside installed for Kerbal Konstructs, I might take a look at more KK add-on mods. Still love the plane.

Holy Kerbal . . . That bridge . . . The small plane . . .

Helter Skelter did a better job . . .

I think Helter Skelter held the best race so far, not the fastest 11.62, but it was a clean run and the brakes worked. Race 8: "Booster Bucket": Startnumber 3012, driver: Wiluki Kerman, pilot. Next up, @NBDesigns's "Vomit Comet".

What happened there Master Blaster ? It was one of my favorites, I hope they come back strong...14.74 Race 7: "Helter Skelter" : Startnumber 6488, driver: Alsy Kerman, scientist. Next up: "Booster Bucket"
