Might just work on it this afternoon. Maybe limit it to certain cars from the 60s and 70s to give it that nostalgic feel.
No clue about building these things so good luck. If you have any pointers would be appreciated.
Please do and kudos in advance! Sounds like a great, fun idea specially limiting to 60s and 70s cars. Can’t wait for the share code.
That sounds great. I wish they’d give us those lego launcher ramps…

Yeah, and I do confess I got maddened and switched to tourist difficulty for this race.

Had to do that too - too much ramming if you were in anything but first place. Still no idea how this made it into an actual weekly grind.

Progress has started. I’ve got the route laid out. Just adding the walls, stands, tires, flags, etc. Will probably take a good part of the weekend.
I had created one route/Blueprint/EventLab before but it wasn’t as in depth as this one. Hopefully it will be worthy of you guys.

Look Forward to it…
Exactly why do anything on harder difficulty if you don’t need to, its only worth 2 or 3 points anyway.

Because some people actually like playing the game. If it’s nothing more than a chore to you, why play?
If it was worth more points then I might be prepared to make more effort, its like the one for the eliminator where you have to get down to the last 30 in game the easiest way is to hide until the count gets down to 30 or less then just drive out the arena, one time I went AFK while doing that and managed to get down to the last 4. lol
I won it on my first attempt but boy was it funny.
First lap all AI cars except 2 hit a corner and all got stuck.
Second lap I am coming third, I don’t feel like I can win this, then both AI cars hit the same corner and I drive by laughing to take the W.
Due to the pandemic and scalpers, I’m still using an Xbox One S, and the framerate drops on this week’s EventLab was biblical.

I have liked most of Event lab events in playlist especially hillclimb and treasure chest one but newest one is just bad design/placement issue. I like the idea. It’s just that execution isn’t good. Managed to win by lowering difficulty to Average.
- Figure of 8 type section is just bad. Fun in Wreckfest, not here.
- barrier placement is bad, if your mirror even touches them in wrong place your car stops which means you can’t turn aggressively here at all
- track might be a bit too narrow which wouldn’t be an issue without barriers that make few of corners just unnaturally tight causing AI to pile up.

This week was especially bad. I can handle a narrow track, but turns with a tighter radius than my car is able to make is poor design. Also a jillion wall monsters because the guy can’t be bothered to line up his objects is crap. If this game has so many players, why can’t we get something better? I’ll finish my Spine track if they just want something difficult. Share Code - 574 323 908.
P.S. I disliked Krazy Karts! with such fervor, that I blocked FATEFU1BLISS as a user /grin

that is kind of harsh, really. fateful makes really good routes.
this route was initially open class, with a direct warning from fateful that s1 and above are too much for the route, and it was a no-drivatars version that i ran when she first posted it on discord.
as a solo run in a bac mono, it was fun. locking it to s1 and adding 11 drivatars was not good.
but, even as tight as it was, it was better than that crap airfield one where you could jump out after the ONLY checkpoint and skip the rest of the route.

I want more fun, fast and crazy stuff like the float race and less cluttered races filled with unbreakable litter, thanks. Appreciate people taking the time to make this stuff, but it’s really starting to reach in terms of trying to be I’unno, clever?
I don’t really see what everybody’s complaining about, I was able to win on I think Above Average on my first try, and I’m definitely not as good a racer as most of you. I actually had some fun doing it, too. I do think it would have been better with 8 Drivatars instead of 12, though. I appreciated that they were actually putting an EventLab that was a race in the Playlist.
Gee, and who do we have to thank for again taking a reasonable user idea and making it steaming mess and forcing us to eat it ?

It’s not the difficulty that made it unenjoyable for me. The last lap for instance was very lonely for me as the ai could not drive the track. I usually drive on unbeatable and didnt change the settings. It just wasn’t a race that popped me. Being honest. But that’s a shame if she said “DO NOT DO S1111”
