[Contest] The great race!

Hello, survivors!
We invite you to participate in the new stage of “The great race”. The point is simple — you need to pass a certain track as quickly as possible. By the way, the range with this track was chosen among your works at the exhibition. But, first things first.
One important thing to mention — currently, the contest is exclusive for PC.

To participate in the activity, you need to:

Find the player RacingClub in the game (using search), open his profile.
In the upper right corner of his portrait, click the button with the arrow that opens the context menu.
Select “Visit the garage”.
Drive through the track from start to finish and record the process on video!
Upload the video to YouTube or any other video hosting service. The video must be available for viewing!
Post a link to the video in this thread on the game forum, also indicating your completion time and the nomination in which you're participating, in your message. Nominations are explained below.

All the messages in the thread are premoderated and are only visible to the administration!

Criteria for getting through the race track:

Activated start block.
All checkpoints have been passed.
The finish block has been reached and a message with the result of the race has been displayed.
The track was completed faster or within the same time as our best try — 53 seconds.

You can participate in two nominations — with and without build restrictions.
The top three leaders in each of them will receive an award.

Build construction rules for participation in the first nomination, the one with restrictions:

Of the movement parts, only wheels are allowed to be installed on it. The "Omni" chassis does not count as a wheel. The number of installed wheels must be at least 4.
No more than two pieces of equipment of the "Booster" category.
No modules other than boosters, engine, cabin and chassis. For example, "Skinner" harpoon is prohibited.

In the "no restrictions" nomination, obviously, there are no rules.

The faster you pass the track, the more chances you have of winning one of the prizes! The author of the range selected for the stage also receives a reward, but is excluded from the current race.
The creator of today’s track will receive 300 in-game coins and an “Amusement Container” as a reward. We carefully copied his range to avoid any inconvenience.

Rewards for participants:

First place in both nominations - 300 in-game coins and an “Amusement Container”.
Second place in both nominations - 200 in-game coins and a “Builder’s Container”.
Third place in both nominations - 100 in-game coins and a “Builder’s Container”.

Results will be summed up in a week, on the 18th of March.
Good luck!

Parker’s detachment was ambushed when returning from negotiations between the Brotherhood and Dawn's Children. To survive, he had to hide in the Wasteland, eating spiders and grasshoppers, and moving around at night.
He managed to return, the squad’s only survivor to report on what had happened. His report was classified, but had a great influence on further relations between the factions. Parker received a medal and a promotion, but he still could not rejoin the ranks of the Brotherhood.
At first people joked about his spider sense, but stopped when he, in fact, began to escape any trouble unscathed. And then people began to fear him and call him Spyder.
However, he supported this legend in every possible way, and even built a truck, looking like a giant spider. Parker grew more and more distant from his comrades, and now spends most of his time in wastelands.

The offer is valid only for PC from March 10, 11:00 GMT, until March 24, 20:59 GMT. After that, the pack will be removed from sale on all platforms.

[Stories] Radio “Voice of the Wasteland”

The Voice of the Wasteland, strange personalities and myself, Alex Murch, declaring in front of the mirror:

“I realized what my problem was. I’m too serious. A smart face is not a sign of intelligence, gentlemen. All the foolish things on earth are done with that face expression. Smile, Murch, smile!”

The reference is there, which means we can proceed to the opening of letters from our readers! Though last time I forgot about it, we’ll be sure to do it today. Most “liked” comment below the previous episode (its spelling has been preserved):

“Can you make a video?) Dota has an anime adaptation coming, maybe you can do something similar. A TV show, maybe. You have so many weapons, such a rich lore - it would be beautiful.”

You know what… let’s do it! Let’s make a video episode of the “Voice of the Wasteland”. It will feature me, a microphone and letters with photos about which so many conversations have already been held. But how do you know that this would be interesting for anyone else except for the commentator? As soon as any text episode of “Voices of the Wasteland” gets 1,000 likes, I’m gonna sit down and record a video version, okay? In the meantime, as you reflect on what we are doing next, let’s deal with your wishes regarding my further actions.

Finding a stranger in blue windings — that was your choice from the last episode.
The task was not easy, but manageable (otherwise I wouldn’t offer it in options). Ask here, go there, have a chat with these, fight with those. The latter was not necessary, but very fascinating. And now I have a photo and a couple of rumors.

“He will arrive soon”.
“He will look into your bag”.
“Rumour has it that he will have a gilded cloak on his shoulders, and everyone will see it at once as soon as he steps from the armoured car to the ground”.

I’m not good at drawing conclusions, we have already determined this, so I leave it to you. The photo was easier to make out though. Turns out they even sent it to me in one of the letters while I was walking.

All that needs to be done is visit the village more often and look for this guy to tell him, “Unknown people ordered you to be found for an unknown reason”. But will I be able to approach him? I’m definitely gonna need a partner.

Do you think this will be a companion frightening enough to pay a visit to the stranger?

Yeah, it’s the second time I’ve asked you to think about something. Therefore, in order not to bother you too much, you can choose the option of further actions in the survey (which has become a permanent episode companion) without thinking too much ;)

Next, in addition to finding a stranger in blue windings, I should:

Make a contest of funny stories;
Write to Vala;
Upgrade my armoured car;
Sunbathe on the roof.
