I would love to see this done where everyone starts with the exact same car. That way nobody is ridiculously OP and theoretically the best tactician will win.... save of course for the people deliberately trying to wreck themselves in race 4 for a better starting position 😂
This upgrade challenge is my favourite format. It's so interesting seeing how everyone decides to spend their upgrades, and even more so the inevitable unintended consequences.
not sure how viable this would be, but it would be kinda funny to do horribly overpowered vehicles with no handling or brake or other upgrades and then have to selectively both upgrade and downgrade to get them drivable.
I think the yute option is a mod so might not be fully compatible with the box... but I've also seen huge boxes in places they don't belong on default vehicles so who knows
Love this, lots of fun to see how everyone approached it. The one thing I've noticed is the competitive cars tend to be tires + tires, and 2 upgrades. Which makes a lot of sense, but really doesn't leave much room for interesting strategies since there's really only 2 upgrades to pick from knowing tires need to be sorted out. Making front and back tires one upgrade would make it an even more obvious pick, but allow a little more room for upgrade creativity. around them. Or, just setting the entire field to a one tire type for the entire race could work too, as everyone would have to be mindful of how much grip they have when picking upgrades.
I really love these challenges/ tournaments and would love to see more of them! Just one thing I'd like to see in the future: Tell us, how the points are given out in the races. How many points does first place get, second place etc?
For this series the upgrades should be done as if you were doing them in real life, all 4 tyres, all 4 brakes, turbo kit etc. Less silly but more competitive
Yeah I second them as a group As you said full sets of thiings but I would say regular tyres ( treaded in some way) and slicks be separate and idk like block , aspiration , intake/exhaust/ fuel management and like gearbox as groups. That would be my personal suggestion
Maybe even set everyone to sport or slick tires and not allow changes because the anticipation of a big turbo or oversized engine upgrade being met with "I got slicks" is a bit underwhelming
Seems like a super easy win when you pick a modern car and just add power to it with tires.... should probably limit the list of cars to be more equal or use the same car altogether... older boats need far more upgrades to begin with to even be on par with a modern stock car
Adding weight on the car to match the power weight ratio isn't the best solution imo because it takes it's toll on the drivetrain, suspension, brakes, tires
If i was in this race, i would totally just have trouble controlling my car at specific times to have a totally accidental bump against the car ahead of me :) No penalties after all
You should do a 11 race matchup where the bottom 3 get 2 upgrades, the next 3 get 1 upgrade and the rest get none, so you can go for points, or upgrades, but not really both. I think that would be interesting.
Normally I would agree, but this time they seemed to be playing dirty to me. Beeping and flashing lights to distract people is not the usual on this channel, also massive dive for one corner and then brakes early for the following one throwing everyone off...
You should do this but in a tournament format with more races across different circuits upgrading the same car throughout the tournament. We could see some pretty interesting race cars by the end and it would promote thinking long term a lot more. Still a very interesting format.
Beam: we can do awesome physics simulations on cars to make it as as realistic as possible and yet even though you have a ute with a flatbed we're going to force you to put your load on the roof
So what time u do is get a fwd: upgrade the front brakes, then you do the engine, then the front tires, add a rear wing, and finally (if you have a lap left) you sneak the weight reduction kit mod in and remove 75% weight.
Now, I'm sure there's a reason but I have to ask...why is the box not in the bed and instead on the roof? You've got a ute...that's...kind of what it's for?

@@smashtoad to be fair everyone makes mistakes, including Alex. I don't think russkiy ment to dive up the inside I think that was due to brake fade, as demonstrated by the next corner
@@X340n I get what you're saying. I've watched a lot of failrace, and Alex always tries to drive politely (within reason). When it comes to unrealistic corner dives, he gets a LOT more than he gives. But you're probably right about Russky...the guys are all pretty chill...and these cars were real limited. Racing can get emotional quick, regardless of who you are.
i had stored away my steering wheel for years and only took it out yesterday and cleaned it updated the software for PXN V3 Pro, and tried it out on BNG drive works great but my driving skills are shocking, i will have to get used to it slowly specially on corners and curves, it really isnt like driving in real life, which is much simpler🥵.
Lmfao. Race 1: Small bump on Cgoyal from slight late brake, no impact to standings; small bump on Longbow who turned wrong way in front. Possible contact with Speedbeast on final lap, no impact to standings. Spun out by Speedbeast on final corner. Loss of multiple positions. Race 2: Clean race Race 3: Bump against Cgoya during different turn lines, no impact to standings. Race 4: Bumped into the back of a suddenly stopped Speedbeat (blown engine? debris? couldn't get out of the way), otherwise clean Race 5: Self-crash into wall; spun by Russkiy sending into no open gap. Loss of time, no loss of positions. So three extremely small bumps that didn't affect anything, and he gets spun out twice, but you're thinking he's the aggressor? Dude.
And Alex acting like Kyle Busch at the end of race one, because he didn't win. Yes, he got tagged from behind, but it's a race! And such a nice way to talk about/to fellow racers. Wow. You definitely deserve the Kyle Busch crybaby award, Alex!
Still playing with Russky? How does Any, as a trans woman, feel about that? In Russia, she would get 30 years just for being gay. Good to know you have standards. Also, Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦
For the 4th race, the reason for me stopping was i picked up a bumper, and it got stuck in my wheels and broke my steering.
I would love to see this done where everyone starts with the exact same car. That way nobody is ridiculously OP and theoretically the best tactician will win.... save of course for the people deliberately trying to wreck themselves in race 4 for a better starting position 😂
that sounds great! Like a one-make series, except everyone can customise their car as they see fit
In the final I ran over a bumper that cut my tyre down, sad I wasn't able to give more of a challenge in it
I messed up in this one because I was consistently awful :P
My car at the end handled amazingly, but I only had 144hp lol
It was the best-looking vehicle though.
The smoke rings were nice to look at lol

13:11 THROUGH GOES HAMILTON!
Exact same situation omg except the win
not sure how viable this would be, but it would be kinda funny to do horribly overpowered vehicles with no handling or brake or other upgrades and then have to selectively both upgrade and downgrade to get them drivable.
Is there no option to put the box in the bed of the ute instead of the roof ? This would make it roll less and have better rear traction.
I think it was more for comedy
I think the yute option is a mod so might not be fully compatible with the box... but I've also seen huge boxes in places they don't belong on default vehicles so who knows
@@antivantiyeah, Ute is a mod

yep even with max upgrades and old car will probably get beat by any stock sports car
For sure, it's definitely been discussed as to what the future format should be
just realised that the automatic subtitles considers your car's revving music, I fully agree.
Adding weight on the car to match the power weight ratio isn't the best solution imo because it takes it's toll on the drivetrain, suspension, brakes, tires
But at the end you can lose weight while having more power to begin with!
plus it makes it top heavy which kills your handling
lmao, speedbeast cheesing the final heat to get last place for two upgrades 😂
cheesing the last TWO heats lol shameless
ShadowMarine47s' car doing a wheelie at around 10:48 looked so dramatic and cool!
Awesome racing by all!
I still think tire upgrades should be done as one thing. I don't think there's any reason to split it between front and rear
When you have a utility vehicle with a load bed and you put the box on the ROOF...
10:48 shadow doing a Herbie for a second there
Rusky took the "typical subaru owner" to the max on that third race lol
I was supposed to be in this but i am an incompetent fool xD
I take it you were rather unlucky?
oggy and the cockroaches car truck vroom vroom
If i was in this race, i would totally just have trouble controlling my car at specific times to have a totally accidental bump against the car ahead of me :) No penalties after all
damn, you did ruskiy dirty on that one... not sure they deserved that.
to be fair, I was a bit of an idiot with my upgrades and ended up with stock brakes stock tires and no control. I should have been more careful
So glad you made another one of these, please keep bringing them back! Keep being awesome!
You should do a 11 race matchup where the bottom 3 get 2 upgrades, the next 3 get 1 upgrade and the rest get none, so you can go for points, or upgrades, but not really both. I think that would be interesting.
4:05 Speedbeast should've lost the upgrade for that one 😱Rude!
the reason the transmission keeps automatically down shifting is cause you have a DCT, its not a sequential
Just want to let you know that as long as you make beam NG videos I'll keep watching. I love them more than any other content you guys do!
cgoya is OP.
Normally I would agree, but this time they seemed to be playing dirty to me.

@@LukeTheJoker yeah it was all a bit much.
2:53 nice youtuber privilege there xD
Fun race to watch, how about doing a race in reverse around a track, where you drive backwards.
4:14 - 4:40 Extreme salt XD
Having the box in the truck bed of the yute would probably make more sense than on a roof rack 😅
This was entertaining as hell to watch. Please, more of these!
We need more of these!!

Yes!! I really wanted more of this
Can this become a regular segment on the channel? This is honestly one of the more interesting challenges Ive seen you guys play out
Beam: we can do awesome physics simulations on cars to make it as as realistic as possible and yet even though you have a ute with a flatbed we're going to force you to put your load on the roof
It's a mod so it was incompatible with the vanilla load options. You can even see that the back of the box attachment is just levitating.
Who else loves these type of challenges?
more of the d series. and maybe something on the complete other spectrum like a f1 car with a lawnmower engine
So what time u do is get a fwd: upgrade the front brakes, then you do the engine, then the front tires, add a rear wing, and finally (if you have a lap left) you sneak the weight reduction kit mod in and remove 75% weight.

Go speed geese go Hope you win this buddy.
I want to see you lunatics launch cars off of that giant ramp way in the background of this map.
I'm surprised that nobody intentionally went for last place, especially if they're at the back of the pack already.
the filming crew consists of some very honorable people
the gearbox issues at around 7 mintues are because the gearbox is an automatic if anyones wondering
Everyone else got good stuff........I Got Rid Of The Box ;]

Bit moody clearly needed the win alex?
He's probably tired of driving politely only to get rear ended and spun out every other race.

At least your quiet car will pass emissions regulations
I would love to see you start with even more terrible vehicles and slowly try to make them drivable

Drives Ute.
Needs more weight.
Puts box on roof.
Still a smarter decision than the ones Turn 10 made when they cobbled Forza Motorsport together.
Now do a longer special where you mod the cars until you can no longer mod them.
MORE PLEASEEEE
Is it me or is it when Alex says "In Theory.." something always bad happens to someone else? Or Themselves?
But why would you put the box on the roof when you have a bed?
Pls do trophy truck in beam 😊
If you wreck ppl you shouldn't get your upgrade
What map is this?
So close to first lol
