K series was far too overpowered

Idea to improve the concept: 1 make series, everybody starts with the same basic car. After each race, everybody picks one modification, which must be unique, starting from the back of the grid.

my race was pretty much "upgrade a car, then spend the next upgrade fixing whatever the upgrade broke"

Hamilton: cgoya dominance could bore fans

this could be cool if only people in the bottom half or not in podium got an upgrade

The racing on BeamNG is fantastic! I love these unconventional challenges.

An idea for another video for this challenge, make the upgrade a draft pick where you go in ascending position order so whoever was last, gets the first choice. It would be a grand prix style so a points system for where you placed in the race

Alex, I found the curbs only puncture tires on mod maps like the ones imported from AC. Vanilla ones like Hirochi Raceway are fine to hit at full send.

that engine explosion at 14:42 was rather catastrophic, hot dang 🫨😯

_"Tonight, we only one option, so lets hope its option for an instant win! This is FailRace, where its silly race time on BeamNG, so expect to see:_ 5:26 _"Longbow gets crashed into._ 17:10 _"Russiky ejects a wheel._ 12:20 _"And Alex has one word for Gliscor." "Owwwwwwww!"_

Minor suggestion: Use the CamodoGaming rule for tires and brakes - you can have a full set if you want, or only front/back... But changing FROM that would be another upgrade entirely. If you pick a half-set and decide to go back to stock, that's classed as an upgrade in and of itself.

This was actually a really fun idea and a fun watch. Thank you FailRace crew, for coming up with these fun and fresh ideas!

"Squeezed as much as I could", you pushed them off the damn track 😂

2:05 Indycar track limit rules; if you can drive on it, you can use it. (The race director used pretty much those exact words)

I think "2 Laps - 2 Upgrades" would be a far smoother way to execute this concept. I love it though.

I absolutely love the commentary, almost as if it was the commentator on an irl race

K series was too OP because it's already a sports car, so it's default parts and specs are already superior compared to others which are regular road cars, Alex's ETK is old too, modern vehicles will also have an advantage over it

absolute fun idea. to top that everybody have the same car in the beginning, so the best tuner wins. nice one. cheers

Definitely need more of this! Really fun challenge!

K series was a bit outside the spirit of the competition. I really enjoy this type of upgrade racing.

This was a great concept. I'd love to see a longer series of this, perhaps have three tracks, run each with 2 sprints and a longer race leading to 9 races in total.

i would love to see this with a spec car and upgrade packages instead of just upgrades

I guess two things: 1. I agree with those that suggested more upgrades for the lower finishers. It might help whoever is struggling fix their car. 2. A mulligan with the minimum number of upgrades if the car they picked just isn't working, and they must start in last for the next race.

This is a great tournament format, hope to see more! Maybe get two upgrades /race so the cars are more competent in each race?

This would be a fun idea to do as a livestream tournament, getting ro see how the car changes over many races would be fun!

It's interesting to see that the top 4 are all ETK's 🤔

You NEED to do more of these races.

I think the same concept should be visited in horizon 5😊

It takes a special kind of skill to crash at the grid before the race even starts xD

Looking forward to watching this series as it develops.

This one option racing would be fun to watch on the survive the descent map. It would be great to see if some people go for better tires or more speed etc, and which option would be best.

Proof that ETK makes the best car's in beamNG with a ETK 1st 2nd 3rd and 4th

like this sort of races, more of these please

Ah dude, I was with you until the boost overclock. I would have suggested brakes and then front tyres. This a great series idea. Hopefully there's a lot of viable variety!

6 corner cuts in Round 2. Tsk tsk tsk. 😂

This amount of cars spawned would make me say "OH MY PC EEEE"

Instead of just one upgrade you can say only upgrades from one category, then have a bunch of categories, like Engine swap, power upgrades (turbo, nitrous, ecu, exhaust etc.), wheels (all 4 both rims and tires), Engine health (radiator and engine block), brakes (all 4 both discs and pads) and weight reduction (remove as many parts as you want)

Can't just be me that would really love to see this on motorsport too

Great idea for a race, but add a lap each time too as then you'll have even more to think about with each upgrade.

Idea if you run this type of race in the future, add another chart showing each sprint's position, and the upgrade they did after

Here´s an idea; Cars can be built, but no one knows what type of race is next, it could be a circuit race, dirt, rally, drag race, demolition derby and such :D

I like the format, but maby you can allow brakes, tyres and the sort to upgrade both front and rear in one upgrade. This way you waste less upgrades on keeping it balanced and more on the actual preformace

Have Cygoya NOT upgrade his OP car and everyone else gets one upgrade each time and see how long he can still win

This, but with 2 different tracks in the series of races. Or one that has both top speed and tight corners so there are multiple options for focusing on upgrades, go for power or go for corners and braking. This was actually interesting as someone not super interested in most races where the cars stay the same but the tracks change

you can get such good races out of beam

This is such a good concept but just a tweak that I think might be worth thinking about. Especially if you bring this to Forza. For each finishing position assign a PI value (bumps of 5 per position just as an example. I don't actually play Forza so I don't know what the lowest pi upgrade is but I guess if you finish 1st you could bank that 5 pi for the next race.) or assign a certain strength upgrade on beamng to keep it kinda competitive. Love the content though

Idea to modify this concept: An endurance race where if you are behind on a lap you can go into the pits and choose one upgrade for your car.

5 corner cuts, 1 off track in round 3. Sentence: 30 sec penalty.

That was very cool. I would like to see a race series where you have to keep the damage that was made into the next race

I love the beamng races. I'd love to see a multiple lap gt3 style race

Loved the new format :thumbs:

This concept is great!

I could only upgrade wheels and tires because I couldn't get race tyres on the stock wheels, and it had no traction to use the power even if I gave it to it lol

Fun idea!

Should do this in Forza too would be fun to see Also related idea Start a bottom of lets say B class Split the finishers in half top half get points bottom half get PI. (Ive use a 10 car grid for this example) So top 5 get points 5,4,3...etc bottom 5 get PI with last place getting he most PI say 25PI for last 20 for 9th 15 for 8th etc They can use this PI to do upgrades Grid orders are contined over from previous race finishing positions, therefore the for race 2 the highest PI would start last.This would also be a deterrent to deliberlately finish in last cause youd have to start last in the next race So while the championship leaders would start at the front of the grid, they would have faster cars coming up behind them. And visa versa while youd have a faster car youd have to fight your way from the back of the pack in order to score points I think this would be an incredible entertain video hope ive explained it well enough

Russkiy should've upgraded their driver! jk of course, I love you.

I'm seeing a lot of suggestions and all are interesting and would be fun to see but to make it most fair I would say one race, one upgrade as it were but everyone starts with the same exact/spec vehicle. If anything it should make the races a lot closer.

I like that you guys use many different car, especially something like this. Next time maybe start with sport tires, sport suspension, sport breaks and Lsd so you can focus on more of the fun stuff.

id love to see this idea at the baja rama circuit. it would complete change the upgrades

ETK dominance detected

i think it could have been so much better if everyone used the same car, so it would be leveled at the start and then diverge due to different upgrade choices

Need an incentive for the first place winner and something to boost last place finisher. 1 extra upgrade each maybe?

Please do more of these

Finishing the race after losing 2 wheels is based

I would argue that upgraded tires b fore a dif is better, because instead of spinning both wheels on stock tires, you use more of the power , have better handling and are less likely to spin.

do race till destruction, everyone starts with a fully stripped car, with wheels, engine, gas tank. Everything else possible to take off, is taken off. Then start adding parts each round.

ETK got this challenge on lock

Do this with an offroad race next!

How about this format with the race against the flood next?

i'm sorry but the 2 upgrades being slicks in a row is such a safe strategy :))

The kurbs are very safe to ride, and usually is faster

Honestly I don't think you need to change the rules too much, just find a track that's more handling based too nerf the power cars with massive power and maybe count an engine swap as a final upgrade, so you can swap the engine when you want, but then you can't make any more upgrades

Going turbo is too bold of a moove unless you choose a cr with a serious stock block, i'd say it's better to just get the stage 3 internals and slicks early so you can then add suspension too since weight reduction often requires many changes. I'm surprised no one picked the Hirochi Sunburst

Over torque risk = Keep the RPM's high. It's the low end that'll blow up the engine.

I had an interesting thought. Would converting a base model moonhawk into a firehawk one upgrade at a time work? (whether or not it would do good at all in the final race is eh, it would be very cool though)

Your engine can take up to 700hp safely (the 3 liter version), yet it blew up at 311hp

Id say 1st place no upgrades, 2nd to 5th 1 upgrade, everyone else to 2nd last 2 upgrades, and last Place gets 3 upgrades. Could be tactics involved then. Points vs upgrades

make the upgrades limited. last person in the race gets to choose whichever upgrade first.

I done somewhere like this with my friends

Show us the upgrade process in the next one

This guy reminds me of Stampylonghead

How about a point to point race with this concept? You can choose to go offroad or on road and upgrade accordingly

second

Gee, this format sounds familiar...

What no Kevin 😢😢

Do this but the winner doesn't get an upgrade, or finishing lower gives you more upgrades and it's a championship. Do you sandbag and hope you dominate later rounds or go all out from the off?

GG everyone! Good race, good video. Suggestion, if you guys decide to revisit this race. 1st 3 finishers get 2 upgrades. everyone else gets 1 upgrade. That's the penalty for not coming in the top 3.

YOHO, FIRST

14:42 the course of the commentator sometimes strikes fast.

Someone should mod the sharknose into this poor vehicle

Does anyone else notice the odd audio crackling? Is that a mod in the game or is it the recording?

How did you get the stats there on the left?

in which room can I do this race in multiplayer

No K series nxt time

Why didnt you go for tires or a front diff on the first race, and than on the second race add awd transfercase and than do the turbo

hey Alex I don't know anything about cars or racing what is a dip? I watched the racing for fun I mean it's interesting to learn a little bit about something but I know nothing about and that's why I'm asking you what the heck is a dip I mean I know some of the basics like I know what a turbo is you know nitrous is you know brakes engine block that kind of stuff steering suspension I know what those are i've never heard of a dip before is it short for something I mean I know it ABS is a hot on-breaking system but I've never heard of a dip could you please explain what a dip is or what it stands for please? Thank you!

Srry mate U lose today 🇺🇸

whats the name of the ui app where you see horsepower and weight?

11:00 It's doing "well", not "good". #grammarfail

Basicly a guy in a sports car bullying evryone else not in a sports car. Big suprise. Not.
