For the Prop Class: Trench Run Tournament

1:37-1:38

This plane's been slowly and steadily improving since the last prop tournament. It's about as janky as a plane can be, but in the AI's hands, it is very quick.

I think it should be fairly competitive, but I've thought that before, and I always crash out. :) This course is pretty safe at prop speeds, so I don't think that will happen this time, but who knows? This plane's predecessor (nicknamed "Flossy") lost in the Shark Tooth tournament not because it crashed, but because it spontaneously exploded mid-race:

We'll see what happens this time... :)

    Honestly you were the closest one to beating him... AI flew his plane in such a straight line I swear... Tough racing all the way around.

    @GrumpyRacing Thank you! I'm a little salty about that loss to Tully, because we split the first two races and collided on the third one, and he got the win... For the sake of my ego, I choose to believe that I would have won that last race if we didn't crash. ;)

    Always love seeing your planes on the other side of the bracket dude! Another nice one, Tully was just untouchable today.

    @Seeras Well, thank you! But I'm afraid there won't be much to see... I haven't made anything interesting in around a year. I really just do the tournaments now, that's kinda my style of building anyway.

    @Seeras Thanks! Sorry about that, but really, you never know-this plane is very wobbly and may be prone to exploding. It doesn't on my phone, but...you might just have a chance :)
