Upgrade The Flood! - Frankenstein's Supercar - BeamNG Drive

We are once more trying to out run the raising flood water on BeamNG Drive, with our cars gradually getting faster i end up with one hell of a Frankenstein car but it's surprisingly fast.

Alex: "That was such a good race against Gliscor"

Gliscor: "I'm glad Alex Drowned"

[SamTheMan]

Imagine a random "upgrade the flood, " where every run you get in a different random car, with the upgrades from the previous car carried over to the new random car.

I guess the advantage of Ewan's upgrade of removing the doors on the right side is so that the family sitting in the back of the MPV have a better view of the sea when they fall off the cliff.

There is no sadder chat message than gliscor's 'I am in groundhog day', this video was Gliscor getting beaten by fate and luck at every turn.

Wow, the curse of the commentator was working overtime on this one, Alex says "It's going well" then immediately understeers off the map before telling Absol not to understeer and cursing them straight into a telegraph pole. This is real The Medusa Touch-levels of jinxing going on, though Richard Burton didn't manage to curse himself off a mountain 😭🤣

I did wonder if the Barstow's notorious glass driveshaft was going to make an appearance, and it did, though not until Gliscor's final run so something has clearly improved there.

my lack of course knowledge really came to bite me in this 😅

I look forward to the Miramar getting a BeamNG refresh because
It is shocking

A twist for upgrade the flood would be to turn on the odometer like you do for driven till destruction. Then at the end of every round you reset your distance after adding it to a total distance sheet. This way it favors consistency and slight team work over being first necessarily.

Team Survive the Flood:
If you wanted you could do a team version where you have a set amount of power over 3 vehicles. The team with the best total distance against the flood being the winner.

Doing a F1 point system would make this even more interesting, only points until 9th place. If you get two upgrades you don't get a point

_"Tonight, we have a mosterous car and one goal - avoid the mob... of water! This is FailRace, where it's Race the Flood time on BeamNG, so expect to see:_
* 16:42 _"Russiky spins out an SUV._
* 26:40 _"Alex races hard in a Sports car._
* 5:36 _"And an out-of-work Stig... aids Speedbeast."_

[AndersEngblom]

"This has gone very, very well for me!"
<splash>

Poor Gliscor, so many great starts only to get ruined by others practically every time.

O love how the old curse hit hard when you said "its going well" 😂

[fireflymetotheblack]

20:30 great race! Then a quick out for 2 more upgrades... strategies! 😅

[lucaslobrigattecotrim]

That was the best version of the Race the flood!!! Please more of Upgrade the flood 🙏

[wvubrett]

Takeshi's castle reference lol
Loved mxc

[DraconPearl]

This racing type has shot up to one of my favourite combinations!

[WigglyWings]

18:43 This was one of the best driving by Alex I have ever seen, very unfortunate in the end though.
Also, this is such a good map for this kind of race. It is so hard to drive in these conditions.

[velvetrosang]

6:47 Ah, the commentator's curse strikes again lol

[fuzzydrake]

This was an amazing round of UtF, great driving from all of you, and some standard FailRace bumps and crashes mixed in. The longer format was a lot of fun too!
