CHEESED-OFF KRAKEN! -- Cross-Planet Race Turned Failure Turned Funny

[LitaAlto]

Forum member and YouTube gamer Jatwaa had a series of challenges recently, collectively called The Fast And The Kerbalus, hinged around high-speed hovercraft using Kerbal Foundries' antigrav repulsors.

I got first place in the very first challenge, which was a speed race to the end of the Insular Airfield. (Reversible stock engines let me keep up the speed until the last possible moment. YAY.)

So when the second challenge was announced, I was stoked. A race all the way to KSP2? Grueling! But totally worth the shot! And I had plans for getting around the mountains. Awesome, Jeb-approved plans.

Then I tried a run, and... ran into technical issues. Then real life got weird and I had to drop out of the entire challenge series.

BUT I GOT VIDEO--complete with color commentary from Jeb. Aside from the race we discuss Kerbalkind's greatest sailor, and a bit of Kraken lore. Hope you enjoy!
