MTM2 Racing
SP's Outback TE by OLD_Mumhra and Drive2Survive.This track is run every year in MTM tournaments, usually for my birthday. What a track it is! From the moment the first steps of its making were shown to me and I was invited to become involved in its making, thoughts of it consumed all of my waking and sleeping hours for months, very similar to what the splitting and revamping of this website is doing now lol. Mumhra tried to give me the feel of the vastness of my land together with its beauty and openness while at the same time giving me things on the track to make me feel at home, like my personal trucks as props, RepFan and D2S helping him with problems that could arise by doing so; some fun things to explore as well as my very own rumble platform. At times I had to remember to not think out loud, as if I did Mumhra turned those thoughts into reality on the track. Everyone loves something different in tracks and for me I love longgg tracks, a variety of terrains with an offroad feel. After Mumhra saw how much I adored this track, and realised I was going to continually run it, he turned to D2S for help with modifications to reduce lag and allow the track the ability to not only have the custom truck props on there but allow custom trucks to run the track with little to no problems. The new Tournament Edition of this track was born. This track will always head my favourites list. All other details you can read about in the read me files, both are attached with this download, the original readme and the one that was made with the TE edition. Veel dank voor het circuit Mumhra, ik hou ervan.
This track Alpine redid for the tournaments, A maker that strives for perfection in his tracks and trucks and succeeds. I run this usually every New Year, Two of the billboards on this track were made by me, thank you Alpine for using them. This is another track right at the top of my favourites, its exciting and fun, overall a great competitive track. This track is run with settings to Dusk, which completes the setting beautifully.
Running this track is a real blast. The song 'On the wings of an Eagle' springs to mind when I run this, an intoxicating feeling of speed coupled with some spectacular drops and its easy to see why this hit the favourite list. Another track maker whose technical ability is phenomenal. I threw this track in as a spur tournament recently... now that was certainly some fun!
I ran this track for a tournament, along with its sister track Ruach in August 2005. While testing this for a tournament I found a beautiful model on the track called 'Princess Manor', this forced me to detour and check it out. This is a stunning, rugged and tricky circuit, a challenge to drive and like all of Winterkill's tracks; technical perfection. After the first run, this was in the favourites list.
Looking at this track for the first time, it just totally blew me away.... here is another track maker whose technical eye for detail is amazing. As can be seen from the second pic Guitarbillville is over the top of one of Bill's tracks Vulture Peak, a great gesture to a fine man. The tournament on this track was such fun, we had plenty to see and lots to do on this special track, made for our annual tribute month in 2007... they even have kangaroos somewhere in Guitarbillville, I saw the sign :)
MTM2 Racing - doing the impossible
Lupin Express by PhineusDon't ever say something is impossible in MTM, there are a few guys that will set out to prove you wrong and Will succeed. Loop-de-loop not possible in MTM? Wrong! With time and patience, this maker has made the critics eat their words. It will take some practice but can be done, the checkpoints are on the top of the loop. Get the right truck, speed and line and you will hit it. A definate download, check it out!
MTM2 Rumbling
Into The Renaissance by Phineus & ShadowPrincessI never really did like school lol, however if my vision for this rumble was to amount to anything, then I had to pack my lunch and head off to traxx school. Enter the master teacher and Into The Renaissance was born. This was part of a set of rumbles that were made for the "Into The Renaissance" weekend 2007 at rengamesonline to celebrate a new home for MTM2. Thank you Phineus for helping to turn a vision into reality.
SpaceBalls TR by Malibu350
The tournament edition of this rumble was run as a 2v2 double elimination rumble on 15th July 2007. No one was about to be lost in space in this rumble! Rumbling in a sphere in space was an extraordinary feeling. I've never seen a rumble like this one, lots of fun and something entirely different from the norm. A definate breakthough into rumble making territory.
