palmer motorsports park is indeed a real track, and i only live a couple hours north of it so i could even vouch for how accurate this version is if i get the chance
Palmer Motorsports Park is an actual circuit Massachusetts that opened back in 2015. This game version shares the same layout as the real world location judging from the satellite images. Seems fairly accurate as well, minus the road surface textures. There are some videos here on UA-cam showing a lap of the circuit.
Yeah! You're totally right, I've visited the track a few times and this modded version is very accurate both in layout, elevation change, and the rocky walls and dense forests surrounding the track. Also "Hagerty" youtube channel has a lot of great videos on Palmer Motorsports Park!
That is a nice rendition of the real Palmer Motorsports track! Which I'm super excited to see in games because it's like a 20 minute drive from my house!
Half pipe track would be a nightmare in a online lobby because of how the banks are laid out. Just look at tracks like Hellride, Rockfield & Wrecknado ect the banked parts causes other players cars to desync which always results in a big lag spike which is not fun at all.
As others have said, Palmer Motorsports Park is indeed a real circuit. It's 2.3 miles (3.7 km) long and is known for its fun variety of corners and the significant elevation change of 509 feet (155 meters).
Alex: "Youre not gonna see a Porsche 911 turned into a banger race car any time soon." like 2 different teams in the 24Hrs of LeMons series in America: "You sure about that?"
Halfpipe is one of the very few tracks where it's advantageous to go dash cam or hood cam when racing. Some of the best handling and fastest cars you have to buy at the tournament store. The Rocket RX and Hammerhead RS(?) and now the Eagle R all being very fun and fast.
The Boxer is the ever so pretty but furiously rust-prone Alfasud Sprint... The Buzz Kill looks very much like a FIAT 133, basically a slightly enlarged 126 that replaced the 850 in the FIAT range in the first half of the '70s and has a rear-mounted water cooled engine similar to that used in the rear engine FIAT vans during that period. We didn't see many of them in the UK and they do look a lot like 126s, but they are rather larger and of a similar size to the 127 which was a much more popular choice here. They were, however, pretty popular in Europe with a lot built in Spain by SEAT... Two races at the half-pipe circuit, and you drop-kicked the same white and blue Lada in both of them, with the same, rolly, results...
Alex at the start, "damage set to extreme" Alex at the last track, "damage is a bit funky" It must have been one of the cats milling around his office that made him forget what the settings were set to...🤷🏼♂️
Nice video, I admit a Porsche isn’t your usual style for banger racing car but tbf people race all sorts in banger racing, even though there’s only ever been about 2 or 3 raced in banger racing before there’s even been Ferraris raced 😂. People are absolutely bonkers 😂👍

Erm... There were quite a few things doing things to other things in this video. Thus I think quite a few readers would like a slightly more specific description of that situation... Unless it would be too graphic to paint a clearer picture, that is.
Yea, wheels are held on by bubble gum on higher damage settings no Wreckfest for me. I'm beyond surprised that Alfa was the first to run into that issue to be perfectly honest. The weak wheels were always one of my biggest annoyances on Wreckfest personally.
Hi all- this might not be the right place, but does anyone have (or know where I can obtain) the bombshelter track mod by F-Bomb that was taken down by Steam? I’m after the zip file if possible.

What Palmer is doing? He made a motorsports park!

18:07 The Boxer GT died because it lost a second wheel, in Wreckfest if you lose two wheels you automatically DNF
Yeah, he lost both front wheels, what did he expect to do after that? lol
And the Boxer GT lose both front wheel because it's an Alfa.
@@automation7295 I mean, had it finished with all its wheels it would have been totally unrealistic.
Two of the best mods in the Workshop and their creators deserve all the exposure!

Hi Alex, thanks for covering my mod, it’s great to see you having fun with the cars :)
That half pipe was utter madness! Always love Wreckfest, no matter if it's mods, or normal. Alex always makes it a fun watch
It would be fun to watch your crew run this halfpipe track.

I really like Palmer. That’d be an interesting layout to have in a forza game

I've had a good few spins around the halfpipe myself, absolutely mental.

lemons is not a banger race
There has actually been a Porsche raced in banger racing. Guy called Adrian Wyatt used a 356 years and years ago at Bromwell Park
@@flyer3849 it's like one step north of it lol
@@crosslegluke4506 Half step
Anyone else getting Nurburgring vibes from the Palmer Motorsports Park? Like a really short Nordschleife?
I loved the Palmer track, that's a great circuit
That was cool, really enjoyed the halfpipe, imagine it longer with a four way crossover jump in the middle though for ultimate chaos...
The Buzz Kill kinda looks more like the Fiat 133 which is essentially a bloated 126

Wild Horse Pass is also a real track
Nice to see wild horse pass here. Been there many times and it was super fun
Any chance we'll see you racing on these tracks with your muppets?
this is the first time I've heard somebody say haitch naturally. It's a cool difference between speakers of the same language! Thumbs up!
18:00 "uh oh, that´s bad" xD
Oh I’ve loved your wreckfest content, this is awesome
You spin me right round, Volvo, right round, like a wrecker, Volvo, right round round round.
We need these cars and tracks to come to console
That half pipe track is a good idea. It is an oval but as you say, 3D!
It's an oval with high banked corners...
Somewhere about 90°, I would think...

I wish some of these tracks could come to console
1st track seems fun maybe for take out the leader as its wideeeee and thats perfect for divebombing for absolutely no reason
Wild Horse Pass is near where I live here in Arizona USA. It is just outside of Phoenix, AZ.
Rain is what I want in Wreakfest.
The halfpipe would be horrifying in real life
The Porsche seems to have way too much understeer to be quick on bendy tracks
The half pipe map made my stomach churn !
that second track was fire!
a porche could be in banger-ish racing with rally cross in the 80’s and 90’s used 911 were popular for rally cross
Like the half pipe
Gadzooks! I SO wish I had a proper system to play this game (a system at all, really), what a blast!
Not sure if it's THE SAME but there is def a Palmer Park in Massachusetts (Northeastern coast of the US)
After a quick Google search of the track layout, yes it does appear about right from what I could find.
In the second race... The track you thought u recognized its an irl track is Massachusetts

How much banking do you want on the short oval?
Yes.
Very track. Much crash. So jump. Wow.
Yes, Plamer Motorsports Park is a real circuit and yes, the Fiat 126 is the Buzz Kill
Palmer, not Plamer 🙄
A 911 has nev been used but a Porsche has been bangered before. A 356 got used year and years ago.
Palmer Motorsports Park is real, it is in Palmer, Massachusetts
You should take a look at the camageddon crossover. It's rather interesting.
The bit where the thing did the thing to the other thing was amazing!

yay
Was your PC getting a little warm towards the end there?

That's not bubblegum. It's just rust, some old grease and a little prayer.
@@Timberwolf69 Probably not wrong tbh lol
