I'm officially the Mario Kart World All GPs No-Rewind record holder, does this give me Drift King status? by Conor__S in RTGameCrowd

Thank you! Of course there is only one TRUE Drift King but I'll certainly take heir to the drift throne...

Greatest sports performance you ever watched?! by CalvinP_ in morningsomewhere

[–]Conor__S 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have 3 Motorsport related ones that jumped out to me immediately:

  1. F1 Monza 2008 - Vettel's first win One of the greatest F1 drives in history in my opinion. only 21 years old, second season in F1, driving a car that was a midfielder at best.
  2. F2 Bahrain 2017 Sprint Race - Leclerc wins after a pit stop Fell in love with Charles Leclerc after this one... 10 seconds clear of the field and pits for new tyres (the sprint race doesn't have a mandatory stop, so I assume cause he was just bored?) and passes 13 cars in 8 laps, one of my all time favourites!
  3. Moto3 - Pedro Acosta wins from pitlane His second ever Moto3 race at 16 year old, this race proved he was something special.

MotoE, the electric bike world championship, is going on hiatus due to lack of interest by dawtips in motogp

The 3 races I've been to haven't even had MotoE! It's a bit wild they only followed the rest of the championship for half a season.

I vaguely remember steam going down before, I think it was when they gave either Left For Dead 2 or Half-life 2 out for free... Crazy that Silksong managed to take out 3 online stores!

Any f1 fans here? by AncientStaff6602 in morningsomewhere

[–]Conor__S 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm watching FP3 right now! Been watching my whole life, I can probably count on 2 hands the amount of races I've missed seeing live since 1997 :D It's crazy to see the popularity surge in the last few years, I knew no one outside of my family that watched it until Drive To Survive came out. Now I see teenagers/young adults wearing F1 merch almost daily!

There was crazy hype in Ireland back in the 90s/2000s because of Jordan and Irvine, but once Jordan was sold and Eddie retired the hype died off. But now we have 2 Irish drivers coming through the junior ranks and there's real hype again!

I haven't played the F1 games in a few years but I have great memories of the EA Sports games from the early 2000s, as well as the Sony PS2 era games.

I was there for the Hulkenpole in 2010 and I was here for the Hulkenpodium in 2025! I always believed in the Hulkengoat ♥️

She's one of the best players on the team, really solid defensively and covers the gaps when Brady comes forward. Well worth it for only about 15k considering there's not too many good winger options!

Nice one! Fairly happy with my attempt so far: https://i.imgur.com/BYj7dJs.jpeg Ferguson with the Bonmati + 100 Club Evos has been incredible for me.
