Hello everyone. It's been a while, and I've been real busy in the scene working with clients and looking into other avenues to Gage interest.

That's why i'm proud to announce i'm sponsoring toyracer online tournament starting on June 15th in collaboration with DreamcastUK who will be handling most of the prep work such as brackets. To make the tournament more appealing: a 30$ prize will be awarded to the winner of the tournament, offered up by me to make things more interesting.

The signup page for the tournament is below. we also are looking for volunteer refs to report win/losses throughout the tournament to ensure fairness and honesty. If you are interested in becoming a ref for the tournament, contact DreamcastUK or myself here on DCTalk or Skype. The tournament page has a detailed FAQ for anyone with questions but also below the signup link are some rules to take note of.

Both players must use the same car/truck etc (different paint work is fine)

Meet in Tournament chat room to report result

Have ref in game (idling at the finish line) to confirm race results

That's the start date of the tournament, doesn't finish that day, so there will be a time limit for when you need to complete your matches.

So if you and your opponent can arrange a match before the second round starts then great otherwise the other person gets a BYE to the round

This isn't a popular as hoped, even with a $30 cash prize.

Remember the tournament starts on that date/time but you have a week to play your match(es).

Currently there isn't enough people signed up to run the tournament, so if we don't get the numbers then it will be postponed.

It will be created on the night of the tournament.
I'll be sat in there unless I have to ref some races.

8 players and two refs have signed up very impressive
