Yo racers and cruisers!

It's arzgaa here with another blogging attempt. My first one (here) featured more tracks at once, but I realized I might not have the time to run so "big" reviewing blog, at least not regularly. But I still wanted to make a regular blog of some kind, so here's the concept I came up with:
I'm going to race a random track (up there in the "find tracks" tab) and make a small reviewish thingblog about it :p
I wanted these to be in all sense of fairness, that's why the random picking. And yes, it will be the first random that comes up, no skipping.

And, here we go:

arzgaa's Random Track of the Day #1 :
~Fun # Race~25 by   tuscani


Hm, well ahem the name at least is fun :p Also no screenshot or desciption here, which isn't the most selling choice. But ah well, here we go, let's see.
At first I drove the track in about 51 seconds (it's a 22 sec shortie, I know :d ) as I hadn't logged in to trackmania for 77 days my skills were a bit rusty. But after 2-3 runs I got the trick of the track.

This one is a neat small online WR hunting track which fills it's purpose quite well imo :p
No huge decorations (there's is some yes, but for online racing, small is rather good as ya'll windows 95 runners might know :| ) and some odd (why is there a huge tube behind your car at the start O.o ) as well as some cool blockmixing at the second last "big" turn with the huge "dome" in the middle. The ending was a bit tricky, crashy part for me at first times, but when I got into the flow (one flaw in the flow though) it ended up cool, even though I still kept crashing a couple of times :p

Not a perfect track (seriously, is there one? :p ) but it's a nice little hunting track which has some sense of decency which means that I didn't just drive a spontaneous "faceroll" which was built just by rolling your face on the keyboard and whacking the mouse here and there. I found this one worthy of an award and I posted my best replay of the few runs I did there. It's a racing game don't forget to post your replay when driving a new track guys ;)

Check the track out, drive it, save your replay, upload the replay here, give the author the feedback about the track (even if you hate it, tell him why) in the comment section (you know, there's one) and award if it's worthy of it :cool:

Allright, hopefully you enjoyed and come back for my next Random Track of the Day ;)
I'm out, GG (y)

P.S. The track ID: 18981, how cool is that :cool:

@Sticky Glad you feel the same about the randomness =D and about that windows 95, it's just a bad joke about the guys with relatively old computers still trying to charge on :d

@SPIDER (810) indeed (l)

Interesting topic and i'd like to see more of your adventure of randomness or journey through randomness.
I'm going to tryout the track forsure (this weekend probably) and post a comment and replay :p

Speak you soon!

ps windows 95, seriously?
