TSA DiRT Showdown Tournament: Week 1

Group A

Although six were scheduled to fight out for the top four positions in the group, Reck46 didn’t actually turn up, leaving the remaining five to try and come out on top. Up first was Rampage, which was hotly contested by everyone.

The only person not to get to the top spot during Rampage at any point was AshGraham99. Coming through the madness,  R1MJAW managed to grab a win in the double points window, whilst OnlineAssassin77, taking part in their first ever TSA event, secured second in the dying moments.

Race Off was up next and was an extremely close battle up front throughout. MadJunkBoy gained an early lead but lost it after a misplaced jump. Once R1MJAW took the lead nobody really challenged him until the final corner. Whilst Tom put up a fight, he simply did not have the boost to be able to race R1MJAW to the line, granting him his second win of the night.

The final leg for Group A was Domination. The lead was hotly contested by Tom, MadJunkBoy and Ash throughout, with R1MJAW simply not able to compete for the first time that night. After being wrecked however, Tom managed to steal the win away from MadJunkBoy and take the final ten points!

Pos. Racer Points
1 R1MJAW 25
2 Tomhlord 24
3 MadJunkBoy 18
4 AshGraham99 16
5 OnlineAssassin77 16
6 Reck46 0

Group B

All competitors did turn up for Group B’s round and Rampage was most certainly a one-way affair. CarBoyCam defied his own expectations and trounced the field to win by a margin of eleven-thousand points! The battle for second was close, but just taken by Manorhowze rather than Sitorimon.

Next up was Domination, and with only two laps to get the sectors done, it was going to be tight. Sitorimon took an early lead, though Death_in_Flamez quickly made it clear that it would be a two-horse race. Death was winning as he crossed the line, yet Sitorimon managed to just beat his final sector and take the win by one point!

The final leg was Race Off and was off to a crazy start with Cam taking the lead being being punted off by Forrest along with Sitorimon! Up front, the lead Death had managed to create was easily taken away by Manorhowze and, after recovering from his first lap incident, Cam managed to overtake Death as well. Manorhowze in the end took a very dominant win.

Pos. Racer Points
1 CarBoyCam 24
2 Manorhowze 23
3 Sitorimon 21
4 Death_in_Flamez 19
5 Forrest_01 12

Up next is Week 2 of the Group Stage with all settings the same. See you here then, and once again we wish good luck to all those taking part!

  3. really looking forward to the next round this monday!
    and hopefully i can record my races, and i will try not to swear too much! :P

  4. Some excellent work there to organize the whole event and to get the video together. Very entertaining. Well done to all.

  5. Nice vid and nice commentary the next murray walker in the making ;) it all fell to pieces in the last 2 races for me i blame MadJunkBoy lol ;D but i will be back oh yes i will be back…WHA HA HA (probably to claim my last place) Once again well played chaps.

    • “(probably to claim my last place)”

      Nope, i’m afraid that Tuesday saw me take that prestigious position & as i don’t expect next week to go any better, i think i may have that one in the bag.

      Sorry. :)

      • Nooooooooooo ;) ill race you for it! lol.

      • Well, if rampage decides to actually give me some points for all the hits I make rather than some of them, I don’t roll it like an idiot again & I don’t have to leave to stop a cat chewing plastic half way through a race this time, you stand a good chance of beating me to the bottom. :)

        However, I think at least one of the above is certain to happen again.;)

      • Yeah it can be a bit hit and miss with the old hit detection and a bit stinjy with the point awarding from time to time also just restrain the cat just to be on the safe side lol ;D

      • “Yeah it can be a bit hit and miss with the old hit detection”

        Lovely pun – I like it! :D

    • why is everybody blaiming me!!!???
      haha i want monday to come neeeeeooooowwwww!!!!! =D

      • Oh it will come soon enough! WHA HA HA ;)

      • yeahh! hopefully it will get better than last time! came 4th twice last time!!

        like Dolph Lundgren says in a Rocky movie “I Must Break You!” :P

      • LOL i like it i like it a lot. ;) (also the best Rocky No 4) Hope your not taking performance enhancing drugs! lol ;D Oh p.s Rocky wins in the end ;)

      • SPOILER!!!!!!!! NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! :P
        haha see ya on the track buddy! =D

  6. Easy win for cam.

    Had a reasonable run out as I managed to sneak 2nd in the Rampage but the event which is usually one of my better ones is Domination and I had a shocker. I saved my boost for certain sectors and crashed every time I used it :)

    Good fun though and only a point behind cam. Great work on the vid Capt. Did seem weird having you talk about yourself in the 3rd person but I see why you did it.

  7. Great job done with the vid, well worth a watch.
    I enjoyed watching the action but seen nothing that tempts me into buying the game.

  8. Great stuff, enjoyed watching it :)

  9. Great job putting it all together Captain, so much easier having it all together with commentry rather than fragmented over 3 pages of forum ;)
    I must admit though that the game does seem to me like it should have probably been a Premium DLC release for Dirt 3, rather than a full blown retail game release.
    Good stuff guys ;)

  10. nice bit of saturday morning TV, look forward to the next one :)
