World Record History of A12 - How Trackmania Players Made Cars Fly

I recently started playing it and wonder that every time I see a record board. Been loving this guy's videos for showing some of the tricks.

[@MrButtonpresser]

I stopped playing when I realised the records were being manipulated somehow. While not cheating, I still think a player should use all of the track. Cuts like these wouldn’t be kosher in motor racing (flying cars aside). Enjoying the videos none the less.

I like how you pay respect to the old records that would become obsolete with new shortcut discoveries. It gives a complete layman like me a sense of understanding what the goal used to be and how the goalposts were moved as time went on. You also have a nice voice and you are a great storyteller. I found you when you speedran Trackmania on AGDQ and I was baffled how you fluently you narrated your run in what I assume is your second language. I know next to nothing about Trackmania. I dont plan on ever playing this game, much less speedrunning it, but your narrations have me captivated.

I've been playing Trackmania for about 10 years now, I found it in the time shortly after my girlfriend passed away and played it in the coming years as a method of coping. When I began playing the game, I was expecting it to have a pretty low player count on account of the fact that I'd never heard of it before. Boy, I could not have been more wrong. I had no idea such a huge niche community was hiding in plain sight. I realize I'm new to the series, much newer than most other players, but everyone I meet in TM is so friendly and I'm grateful to have a game where I can just join a server and chat instead of needling to perform up to expectations. It's refreshing to play a game where people only help me if they see me struggling instead of trying to work against me.

@@adamsapple9667 Omega is referring to a new tv show airing in czech republic, featuring a bunch of tiktokers, and everyone is shitting on it. Since Tortugo is now a fulltime tiktok influencer, depending on who you are, you might be a fan of his funny videos or just dislike him and find his content cringeworthy. Personally I don't really care about him tbh.

“how trackmania made cars fly” rocket league: a m a t e u r s

[@livedandletdie]

Cars flew in Trackmania before Rocket League was a thing, clearly Rocket League stole the idea of flying cars from TM.

[@Kelvenocity]

@@livedandletdie hmmmmmm... true... Rocket League sus..

18:25. Wow! Well that's it ladies and gents. That track is optimized to its fullest potential! Ggs! :::Checks video timer::: Oh... guess I'll need more popcorn then...

[@vonix9199]

remembering your RPG hunting streams in 2017 I'm extremely proud of you! :)

[@louisfaillance6505]

If I had a nickel for every video in which a narrator asks the viewers if they’ve ever seen a race car fly followed by « we’re finally landing » by HOME, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it happened twice

[@12gauge_shawtyy]

yea i got major emplemon vibes on this vid lol. When I searched it up to rewatch it I could swear it was by him

[@MatrixCL]

Hahaha, that online reaction of Hefest was awesome! He has so many records on Nadeo tracks already, so it's actually a bit ironic that he got this one as well, given how much luck is required. Judging from the sound the car makes, it seems he's accelerating mid-air almost continuously towards the closest finish, meaning this record is almost impossible to beat. You'd basically have to accelerate right after the jump and hope you're going into the right direction. Anyway, lovely to see the history of the WR pursuit on this track. Thanks, Wirtual. :)

When Wirtual posts: *surprised picachu face*

[@mattbad3114]

Me : checks everyday KZbin to see if Wirtual had uploaded a video Me this morning : well... I don’t think the dream will come true... And then... out of nowhere... ! Nice vid

[@RetrospectsToo]

You are one hell of a story teller. I had no idea about this game this morning and now have watched a bunch of videos like it’s must see tv.

[@JimmyGuy996]

Im getting hyped . I wanna try this game. The community seems amazing

A12-Speed in 2030: So the new record is 1.05 seconds, but some new players are joining so I'm making one of them get a below 1sec run

[@FischlInsultsMePls]

2040 ok now we have ultra crashed the game from the beginning to get a zero sec record, but some guy have just discovered space time bending stuff so we gonna try finish it before it was created in the early 21st centery

[@xXiangololXx]

this channel is actually top tier, you explain to the rest of mortals the legends, the myths, the superheores that live in this universe of trackmania. Amazing. Cheers.

[@swift7493]

We're not gonna talk about how he put out a music list complete with timestamps and all... legend

[@MrHDot1997]

6:37 i can only imagine how many thoughts and emotions were going through his head on that drive to the finish

[@beloslavbelchev8062]

I found this back in the summer of 2021 . To this day I still enjoy Wirtual's content and come back to rewatch some of his old videos from time to time . I am amazed how good they are

[@Mystixor]

I love your history lessons, this is what makes older games the greatest :D

[@The_Oak_Staff]

I honestly thought the bug was called randstein-bug as randstein is a german word for curb and the bug is created by driving on the curb...

[@agenttud]

I think that's the origin of it, but the term got changed and mixed over time, given the the two words (randstein and Rammstein) sound very similar and are both German. I asked riolu about it (what the connection between the band Rammstein and the game is, in relation to the bug) a while ago, during one of his streams, and he said basically the same thing: that there's no connection and it's meant to be "randstein". However, at this point, I think "rammstein" is used just because people recognize that term more (for example, googling "trackmania randstein" returns 992 results, while "trackmania rammstein" returns 426k).

[@zai-tm]

don't forget hylis calling it "ramdstein" in 2017

[@mtat_tm]

most just prefer calling it rammstein, that's just it

[@quackkwak2008]

dude this video is AWESOME!! great storytelling I LOVE IT!!

[@brunoopardini]

Once you start watching one of Wirtual's videos, the matrix doesn't allow you to start another video. You just want to stay.

[@hybrid5860]

I’ll be honest, I shed a tear to the determination Trinity showed when he finally broke the record.

[@CAxPH]

I randomly found this channel as I saw it in my suggested feed. Since then I have been binging your content! I love the inspirational theme and the symphony of music to accompany that theme! You bring us positivity, thank you!

Woah this feels like a movie.

[@alexgamingyz5346]

the subtitles calling hefest "half-assed" made me laugh way to fucking hard at 26:10 "half-assed got a dream uber book"

[@AcerFlash]

The way the storytelling brings you along, through the feelings on the different timestamps... I'm glad I didn't skip pass the first video I saw and thought its just a speed run.

4 years of raw power, and William the first inspirer, I really got to respect those two.
