This is a really cool racing game... and free!! If anyone has played other versions of TrackMania you'd know what it's about. This one is designed for online play and there are a limitless amount of tracks to compete on. I heard about it somewhere here on the seek forums, and I'm addicted. It's not too big of a download (<300MB) and you won't regret it. I made a UMR skin for the car, I'll post it if anyone wants it.

here is the link to the skin

you have to put it in the \GameData\Skins\Vehicles\StadiumCar in your TMNations dir

DO NOT UNZIP THE FILE!! JUST COPY IT INTO THAT DIRECTORY

If someone wants to join the UMR Team, I made one. You need to go to trackmanianations.com and log in with your username/pass (it doesn't *** it out, make sure no one is watching, lol). Then scroll down till you see something about a team name and password:

Name: UMR
Pass: gominers

not sure if it's case sensitive, thats the case I used, though.

What's everyone's in-game name?

mine is 0600Zulu

I have a tag in front of my name designating UMR team

so my name looks like UMR0600Zulu

If you want this tag put this before your profile's nickname:

$080UMR$FD0

This only leaves 8 characters for a name, however

EDIT: 9 characters

Well, I'm in the process of downloading now. What makes this game so fun? I'll be more than happy to join the team once I get the hang of it.

if you pick the American skin and then the UMR skin.. you'll still have the american flag, but the UMR skin... I think we need to get some miner flag up there and some sweet mining music...

^^ yeah, you pick the country you play for seperately... even though you are on the UMR team, you will still gain points for the US. You can actually pick the skin of any country, it just sets the American skin up as default when you pick USA.

The miner flag thing would be coo, maybe I'll work on that, or someone else can if they want... @kjk437: just play it and you'll find out, lol, trust me (us), its good.

Personally I hate the game. At first I thought the game would involve some shred of racing skill, but I was sadly disapointed by all the people who simply try to find a shortcut that is generally only accomplished less than 5% of the time to win. Half-pipes and loops belong in a Tony Hawk game not racing.

Just my two cents, I am sure some will disagree, but I hate this game.

The better tracks, in my opinion, aren't the ones with the loops and all that crap. That stuff is pretty dumb. There are some really fast and fun and more skillful ones.
