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.
Quick Tip for Tuning the Cars for Handling: Toe the Front Wheels out 0.5-1.0 degrees (Slider to the Left) and Toe in the Rear Wheels (Slider to the Right) by the same amount. And give them as much Caster as possible. There is a little Alignment Tool in the UI Options that you can use. Camber about 1.5° is a pretty decent value. The cars become more stable on the straights and corner a lot better as well. Pass this tip on to the others. The Vanilla Race Cars all have horrible Alignment and that's the main reason they all drive like garbage.
@@MyFabian94 for my K series I used about 1 degree toe out in the front with neutral toe in the rear, using a set alignment setup every time does not work with every car and driving style, especially with different platform configurations, for example in mid engine and rear engine configurations you’d typically want toe-in on the front (something that most Porsche Cup and GT3 cars use) but again a lot of it is down to driver preference
@@cgoya1777 I see in a lot of Failrace BNG Stuff that he often uses the Godawful Vanilla Alignments just from the way they slither about. It takes some getting into, but the advantages become immediately obvious.
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.
_"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.
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
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 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.
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)
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
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
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!
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
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.
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
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.
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
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 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
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
should group upgrades like brakes front and rear, tires, suspension, and for engine you can engine swap for one upgrade or do like a stage 1 build for the upgrade.
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.
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
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)
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
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
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.
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?
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!
You probably mean a diff, which is short for differential. My knowledge of cars isn't that great either, but from what I know about it it is used to regulate how much one of the driven wheels spin compared to the other or in 4WD cars also how much % of power the front/rear wheels get. The thing he talked about, one-tyre-fires, is that one of the driven rear wheels in the car tends to spin (the one with the least amount of grip) and the other one doesn't get a lot of power. It is way more complicated than that (check Differential (mechanical device) on wikipedia), but hopefully this helps a bit. Otherwise, I am sure there are plenty of people in the commentsection who know way more about it than I do.
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.
I was thinking the exact same thing. I think it would be great to watch!
Base model I Series would be perfect, or Covets.
Would also love to see it done with t series
my vote goes for something silly... like kevin or the widgen.
my race was pretty much "upgrade a car, then spend the next upgrade fixing whatever the upgrade broke"
"upgrade"
K series was far too overpowered
"Kill" Series 😆

Hamilton: cgoya dominance could bore fans
Other players will learn from him and then he won't be winning as much.
Ironic comment after today.
this could be cool if only people in the bottom half or not in podium got an upgrade
Sounds like a great Idea
I was thinking the same thing, with the top 3 getting no upgrades and the bottom 3 getting 2 upgrades
then you'd get funny buggers of people stopping right before the line to let someone else take the podium
@@captainzoll3303 maybe, but the points for higher positions may negate it
@@captainzoll3303 the channel is FailRace. I come here for funny buggers.
The racing on BeamNG is fantastic! I love these unconventional challenges.
This was actually a really fun idea and a fun watch. Thank you FailRace crew, for coming up with these fun and fresh ideas!
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
I think it would work better the other way around, otherwise the people in the front would immediately become overpowered
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 should be fixed so all curbs break tires, as they should.
@@aredub1847but Curbs don’t? Not atleast on road car tyres with thick tyre walls anyway

Proof that ETK makes the best car's in beamNG with a ETK 1st 2nd 3rd and 4th
K series was a bit outside the spirit of the competition. I really enjoy this type of upgrade racing.
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 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
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 absolutely love the commentary, almost as if it was the commentator on an irl race
I think "2 Laps - 2 Upgrades" would be a far smoother way to execute this concept. I love it though.
This is a great tournament format, hope to see more! Maybe get two upgrades /race so the cars are more competent in each race?
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 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.
"Squeezed as much as I could", you pushed them off the damn track 😂
You NEED to do more of these races.
Have Cygoya NOT upgrade his OP car and everyone else gets one upgrade each time and see how long he can still win
Or the winner doesn't get an upgrade
i would love to see this with a spec car and upgrade packages instead of just upgrades
That PFP is very aesthetic! Did you make it yourself?
@@ashleyhamman nope found it online
trans meeting in the comments
It's interesting to see that the top 4 are all ETK's 🤔
@@KoinuKama2nd the new ETK’s are definitely overpowered and we have thought about eliminating them or nerfing them in some ways for next time
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!

like this sort of races, more of these please
Comidic timing! "Engine wise - POP"
This concept is great!
Looking forward to watching this series as it develops.
I think the same concept should be visited in horizon 5😊
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
Loved the new format :thumbs:
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.

ETK dominance detected
Can't just be me that would really love to see this on motorsport too
6 corner cuts in Round 2. Tsk tsk tsk. 😂
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!
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
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.
It takes a special kind of skill to crash at the grid before the race even starts xD
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
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.
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.
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.
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
I love the beamng races. I'd love to see a multiple lap gt3 style race
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
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.
How about this format with the race against the flood next?
Fun idea!
5 corner cuts, 1 off track in round 3. Sentence: 30 sec penalty.
you can get such good races out of beam
id love to see this idea at the baja rama circuit. it would complete change the upgrades
This amount of cars spawned would make me say "OH MY PC EEEE"
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
Russkiy should've upgraded their driver!
jk of course, I love you.
Or just upgrade to a faster car. I mean that's 1 upgrade right? 😂😂😂
Do this with an offroad race next!
ETK got this challenge on lock
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
should group upgrades like brakes front and rear, tires, suspension, and for engine you can engine swap for one upgrade or do like a stage 1 build for the upgrade.
Please do more of these
Finishing the race after losing 2 wheels is based
The kurbs are very safe to ride, and usually is faster
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.
i'm sorry but the 2 upgrades being slicks in a row is such a safe strategy :))
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.
Need an incentive for the first place winner and something to boost last place finisher. 1 extra upgrade each maybe?
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 done somewhere like this with my friends
How about a point to point race with this concept? You can choose to go offroad or on road and upgrade accordingly
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.
I mean...why would you give the people struggling even worse cars lol
@@longbowxmkii Oh, hey longbow
make the upgrades limited.
last person in the race gets to choose whichever upgrade first.
Show us the upgrade process in the next one
so i have a question. FWD is better for control right? would going from RWD to FWD in this challenge be considered 0, 1, or 2 upgrades?
Your engine can take up to 700hp safely (the 3 liter version), yet it blew up at 311hp
This guy reminds me of Stampylonghead
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?
What no Kevin 😢😢
