Announcing the SRC Series Rocket Racing Speedrun Challenge!

Contest Dates: February 15th - February25th, 2024

The SRC Series is a lineup of challenges we're rolling out on a semi-regular basis, funded entirely by Speedrun.com SRC Series challenges are designed to be fun and engaging, with a focus on community involvement. The prize bounties are smaller compared to sponsored challenges, providing a break from the stress of high-stakes competition! We hope SRC Series challenges will bring speedrunners together from all kinds of communities to discover new games and meet new people.

Hello! I have 3 questions:

  1. Can we run the tracks with whatever order we desire?

  2. What happens if the game crashes during the run? (both while running a map, as well as in between maps).

  3. Are we allowed to restart the game in-between maps while in a run?

  1. Yes, tracks can be done in any order.
  2. We never had anyone ask about crashes since they aren't all that common. Let's say you can reboot the game and continue running if it's between maps, but not if a crash happens in the middle of a track. If this becomes a major issue, we can re-evaluate.
  3. Yeah, this is not an issue :)
