Zero Expectations Racing Cup (COMPLETE)

Saarland, stuck in 47th place it seems like :smiley:

Round 5 Results

it all gets decided after this, boys


Google Sheets Version

WE ARE SO BACK, GOOBER BROS. That thing is so absurd since it has so much grip and downforce, that it does more than enough to make up for the bumpiness of this track, and I felt way more confident in it than any other car.

Speaking of the other cars, this round hasn’t seem to have affected the overall leaderboard as much as the others, but there is still 1 more round left to decide. Are the positions set in stone already, or could the last track majorly change around the order again?

Round 6

Map Link

time trial is included


The track that sends off the challenge is another off-road rally stage. This is admittedly quite an old map, but still great fun with lots of height variation; in my opinion, it still holds up as a great rally track.

Unlike the track in Somerset, there are much less fast sections separating the corners, so grip is a much more important factor here. So now being that this is an off-road track, does this mean that this will be the track to change everything up? Will the Testicular Torsion even complete the track with such little room for a run-up over an incline? Everything will get decided this round!

Round 6 Results


Google Sheets Version

The final round of the challenge comes to an end, with the Koyota and Mara Xenia once again dominating everything, but still with plenty of position gains in the top percentile.

And of course, we got our first and last DNFs from our (least) favorite cars at the bottom, which following the aftermath of doing so, they might not be capable of doing any more racing.


FINAL RESULTS

After almost 2 months of ZERCin’ it, the madness has finally came to an end. Was it a mistake to have to include 6 whole rounds of this? Probably. But there’s no denying that it was hilarious to see some cars dominate one track, then struggle for dear life on another. Thanks everyone for joining this absolute silliness once again.

Top 10:

  1. @ctesiphon - MM400+
  2. @ctesiphon again - Koyota Yougo Crazy
  3. @Djadania - BetterDeals HPD Death (embarrassing for the 47 other cars)
  4. @T0M - AT GOOBER

BUT THE SILLINESS DOES NOT END YET

I have already agreed to collab on another AutoBeam challenge which is due to launch very soon in time for April Fools. Stay tuned; it should be even funnier to troll two people at once. :flushed:
