MRS6 Memo #9: Race 9
Reflektor dusted themself off after a hard-fought race. Despite a brilliant start, they had fallen to fifth by the end of the race.

MRS6 Memo #3: Race 3
Rolling across the line, Ghost Plasma thought that had been the best race victory of their Marble Rally career. Their first, way back in 2016, had been arguably stronger with an almost wire-to-wire victory, but there was something incredibly satisfying about coming from a comfortable spot near the front up to title contention with aContinue reading “MRS6 Memo #3: Race 3”
MRS6 Memo #1: Race 1
The qualifiers had been tense, but as Amethyst rushed out of the last split path they had never been so nervous.
