Turbulence - Trackmania's Most Shortcut Classic Track 

Incredibly enough, the track was just shortcut again for the 9th time! 39.79 by Dennis090. A new variant of cranberries 3rd shortcut, with taking the ring at the end. Simply amazing discovery and execution! See the full run here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LFWz7lU-1rA.html

shout out to poker that drove the non-cut wr for like 5-6 times xD

I love how the creator was impressed instead of insulted by the cuts. Guy really likes the community

Starting the video with the uncut route would've been nice to give the viewers an idea of how much of the track is actually being skipped

"Driving with a black screen would be impossible" Also has a video beating the game blindfolded..

If I were to point out any single flaw with this video, then this: I have watched a 20 minute video about a

1:25 this is a great piece of editing, well done to your editor

This is just crazy and pretty ingenious haha. Respect for matto for being such a good sport about it :D

to be continued..

love how the final cut wr requires the driver to concuss their brain and crush a few vertabrae on the underside of the finish platform

We need to get JaV with his algorithm for pathfinding and annoy matto one more time

The "wrong way" sign under the finish in the final version sealed this map hopefully to it final form

I'd like to see levels that encourage finding different routes with many checkpoints just scattered over a large map. I reckon it would allow for more creativity in wr attempts

7:44 this stream clip sent me on a 15 hunt for that song and now I know where the sample came from for Nero - Must Be The Feeling. What a song

I've never heard of this game before, but this video made me want to try it

So this is one of the best random RU-vid recommendations so far, I actually tried a new game for the first time in many months ;/)

Teacher [in 2054]: “And this, kids, is why every single track is entirely walled in today.” Class [sarcastically]: “Thanks, Wirtual!”

"Trackmania has lots of tracks" shit i never knew that

Before discovering your channel i could never have imagine that the story of a track could be so interresting !! Thanks you for telling those strories

At some point it becomes a challenge: “Who Can Shortcut The Newest Version Of Turbulence First?”

It would've been extremely easy to prevent all shortcuts in one update... Just set the whole track one block upwards, so nobody can go back on the track, after landing on the grass...

Oh my gosh the music at 11:18 matches well. The entire use of that song from realization of shortcut to final run, it’s amazing. Shazam found the name - Run with your Heart, by Dream Cave

Fantastic vid Wirt! Loved hearing about the history and people behind this track! Thanks for being awesome

I love seeing the record holders explain the story of speedrunning their game. There are so many amazing little details people who aren't among the elite would completely miss. Having a fuller understanding of the little tricks makes it so much better. I'd never seen Trackmania before youtube sent me here and I'm already getting interested in its speedrunning story. I also really liked the interaction between the designer and the runners here. Typically I would have thought leaving it to develop all the cuts and exploits which develop is better for the speedrun community, but in this case it really seems like both sides are having a ton of fun playing cat and mouse. Its just very wholesome to watch everyone come out happy as in this story.

Excellent video, you told the story in a nice way! I'm impressed by the community's capacity to find cuts, I have this very little hope some players will still find ideas for this one!

you could say this track has a turbulent history

I was never a great driver so didn't ever design particularly technical tracks but I think it would be interesting to design a track that rather than trying to stop shortcuts, actively gives many opportunities for them and just see who can come up with the most outrageous route through a bunch of checkpoints dotted around in no particular order.

a whole lotta turbulence🥵

Wow this is higher production content than I was expecting! This was great!

I find myself rewatching these videos. Wirtual is such a great storyteller and super relatable personality.

Song at 7:50 is carmen - time to move

I have just discovered your channel and I must say that your talent to tell a good story is phenomenal! thanks once again.

9:50 what a golden moment. That, and the ensuing battle against Poker's ghost. Amazing quality man, loved every second of it

Im not even a Trackmania fan but after watching the A12 Speed video I am hooked. The sheer quality of your videos is outstanding. Keep up the great work man.

Hi Wirt ! I have a challenge for you : Try to finish the TMNF Nadeo campain without brake or release , just Fullspeed

2:31: it is completly impossible to drive blindfolded. also wirtual: beats the whole game blindfolded

Really like your video @Wirtual. You make an amazing job and we can feel how much love you have for this game!

I don't get why I find these videos so fascinating but thank you for your content... Decided to give a video a try and have been watching and subscribed for hours.

Just love your storytelling. Great content ☺️

Awesome to see yourself playing and crushing records. Also helping out the map creator was very nice of you

"I wanna sleep" too. I stumbled onto your channel & just watched 4 of your vids, & now it's after midnight. (used to play original TM back in the day)

What an amazing video duede, really enjoyed it ! Keep it up bro 👌

Wirtual 6 months ago: "Driving from the 3rd checkpoint to the finish, would be close to impossible" Wirtual now: *Doing all TMNF campaign maps blindfolded*

Love this story coverage. Even if it's a community I barely know of, it feels very welcoming regardless xD

I can't believe I'm enjoying this, this is cruel for the map creator xd

Your videos are so well done!

your content is so good man! props wirtual!

Amazing editing and telling of how things unfolded!

Dude you're giving me so much nostalgia here omg. I should definitely go check if some of my tracks became classic in addition to three others I've got already. I don't even remember my nickname on tmx site, but i saw you posted smth about possibility to play tmn with newer windows with some patch, one day I'll come back for sure!)

How in the world did you make me watch a video about 1 of 500k maps of a game i dont even play... insane storytelling and editing skills.

*We are finally landing by Home starts playing* This is the history of “Trackmania’s most infamous track” If you get it, you get it

Your channel is so underrated, you deserve more subs imo

This is refreshing to see such effort on something else than a Nadeo track!

Great content, love these vids, keep it up!

Congrats to 5k subs!

Man, I played this back in 2011... bring back a lot of memories, I could never get to that level where I'm cutting corners like crazy and able to perform pixel perfect turns, but it was a fun game doing that time attack stuff with other people.

Never played any TM, but I love these videos and am installing it because of you!

Great video, I don’t even play trackmania but your videos are great! Started watching after you and jimmy were playing trackmania on his channel.

I've never played trackmania but I've watched so many of your videos, great content bro

Such a great video, I'm impressed!

Solid camera work and editing as always.

I love these kind of videos because it just shows that you did your research

This channel will blow up soon

The best RU-vid videos are just someone talking about something they are passionate about. I don't play this game, and it seems ridiculous that people would spend so much time on this, but I very much enjoy watching these videos.

Keep up, You'll channel will blow someday, I promise.

had to comeback to this. this was the first video I've ever seen of the trackmania series. The first time I ever learned about it....

actually my new favourite tm video

13:07 "and it seemed like the track was totally cut-proof." The 6 minutes left in the video: NOIDONTTHINKSO TeaTime

I dont play this game. But i just stumbled across ur channel. I have watched 3 of ur vids now including this one. I will give this game ago and thanks for the decent content. Nice peaceful story telling, soothing voice and informative. I am simp for u

fun fact: "matto" in italian means crazy

Not even sure if I'd even seen trackmania gameplay before this got recommended to me, but now I am thoroughly interested. A great 19 minutes.

The quality of this video is incredible!!

Firstly- dont change Wirtual, yur vids and runs are dope. Secondly- I never knew this game existed until about a week ago when i discovered Wirtual. At the time I was looking for a new game to speedrun. Where has this game been all my life!? Right under my nose!

This is my goto channel to watch while eating

This is with out a doubt one of the most entertaining channels

Youre delivering some real Summoning Salt vibes! Love it

I've never even played trackmania but I loved this video. So well done.

This is a good series to come I hope :D Also finally I know player/mapper names in the video!

Have I ever played or even heard of Trackmania? No Have I been bing watching all your videos about Trackmania and providing amateur dialogue about the tracks and records in your vids? Absolutely

I dig your videos. Great driving!

Wirtual - Driving from the 3rd checkpoint to the finish is near impossible Also Wirtual - *Beats the whole campaign blindfolded*

Man I love watching people who play and dedicate this amount of time to a game I'll never play. Its fascinating

When i wake up, i'll reinstal the game and get om turbulance. I didn't even knew it was updated so many times. And thanks for your videos, i started playing this game in 2006 if I'm not wrong, such a great time around, community was so great, but quit in 2010 because lack of time.

You are really a damn good Story teller! Just wanted to say that. Go on! ;)

I would never remove shortcuts. Half the fun is seeing how other people use your creation in unique and unexpected ways.

“Much easier than to drive blindly for 25 seconds” **foreshadowing him spending over a hundred hours driving blindly**

Great video, I love speedrun progression videos!

Man i love your voice Its so calming

WHEN WIRTUAL TALKS ABOUT STUFF I CAN REALLY FEEL IT

Seems like this video was one of the larger stepping stones that catapulted Wirtual into fame

Need more vids like this, i love this

Very Nice Video, Wirtual you are my Idol

I actually have the opposite response to the author, the fact that players are willing to learn my track to the point of knowing it's ins and outs better than me and cutting it, I'd feel proud.

Oh the music at the beginning! Love it.

Luv the vids man 💯

This is some good content bro.

Matto: "why can't you just drive my track normally" Trackmania community: *screeches*

I never really played trackmania, but it seems right up my alley...

I've never even heard of TrackMania until today. But I've just watched 3 of your videos in a row simply because they're so well made, keep it up!

Holy shoot, I remember chatting with Timebreaker about track building, driving etc. Never would've thought I'd come across that name more than 10 years after having played TMN (the game version before Forever). I guess due to my recent history involving a lot of speedrunning and racing games, the algorithm actually did a good job at recommending something fitting. Nostalgia for days.
