For the Mod Class: Typhoon Circuit Tournament. Last minute replacement for another plane I had entered. In theory, this plane doesn't crash and completes the course in about 1:06. In reality, who knows? We'll see how lucky I am this week. :)

    @Pranav06 Haha, thank you! I'm surprised anybody still remembers those old planes. They seem lousy now, but man, I had a lot of fun with them. Once modded parts became popular, planes like mine kind of became obsolete, and I didn't have the artistic skill to make cool replicas, so I sort of ran out of things to build. I stopped playing for a long time, but got sucked back in about a month ago when I saw the new updates. I've been having fun building about 1 plane a week for the new tournaments. I always preferred performance-oriented planes over nice-looking ones, so the tournaments are a lot of fun for me. Plus, they give me a clear goal to work on...otherwise, I'd just run out of ideas again. :)

    @ABC123 I basically gave up after 5 planes and just made the "Super Simple" to have something in the tournament...

    @GrumpyRacing Haha, thank you. I can't resist making them just a bit too fast and unreliable to survive. It's a losing strategy, but I'd rather crash out than actually get beat, so I will stubbornly cling to my failing methods.

    @Pauciloquent Thanks! I never got it to go that fast... I always tell myself, "this plane will crash less and go faster when it's on PC instead of my phone". I thought I was just kidding myself, but maybe not. Anyway, it was maybe a little too fast... there was a version that only went 1:19, but was a bit safer. Probably should have picked that one! :)

    Another beast @ABC123 ! I was thrilled to see it on the opposite side of the ladder, sad to see it go out.
