Kermania Fortress Run, Kermania Citadel, Jebslund ::For third consecutive NSSCRA Pick 'em Contest Week the participant with the highest score of the round would be a user residing in the same home country as that of the NSSCRA Race Winner. After @Paine_Andrews of Saint Kanye was propelled to a tie-break victory in Round 2 thanks to the triumph of Thea Alvarez in New Northwesteros and Vilitan celebrity participant @SurfinSummer took the top score and the guaranteed spot in the NSSCRA Playoff Chase after fellow Vilitan River 'Shark' Suzgar II took home the checkers at the Cocoa-bo Speedway in Cassadaigua, it was perhaps no surprise to see another Kanyean participant atop the NSSCRA Pick 'em scoreboard once the proceedings had come to a close underground at the Kermania Fortress Run.
In fact, user @Melvin_tha_gr8 went all-in on the Glorious Free Republic Motorsports trio with the bulk of their points coming from their drivers #18 Jeremiah Brooke, #46 Thea Alvarez and #3 Sage Caldwell. @melvin_tha_gr8 even managed to post the top score in Round 4 of the Pick'em Challenge despite having received no contributing points from their Grade 5 driver - the former Valkyrie Motorsports driver Jolyn Maxine Helen Ceeta who is now employed by the Garden at 6th Mile Road.
It was a massive turnaround for @melvin_tha_gr8 who posted the lowest score among all competitors in the first round of the competition co-existant with the Tundra Falls 500 Race weekend. There was a similar drop off in the results this week for the celebrity participant #SurfinSummer who was the winner just one round ago following the NSSCRA Race at Cassadaigua. @SurfinSummer's low total following the Kermania Fortress Run is directly tied to the poor performance across the Board from Vilita and Turori Motorsports who missed expectations wildly after having won the event at the Kermania Citadel near the end of the NSSCRA's 9th season. While Conlin did collect points from all five of their drivers unlike @melvin_tha_gr8, the performances left much to be desired with Frank Bronson's 11th place finish the best on the day for the @SurfinSummer entry.
The top finisher for Vilita and Turori Motorsports at the Kermania Fortress Run was once again Centur Tiones who salvaged a bad day with a 13th place position. River 'Shark' Suzgar II, at the top of the @SurfinSummer ticket, struggled after an early incident and was completely out of the conversation with the chance to both win two consecutive NSSCRA events as well as two consecutive races at the same NSSCRA Venue, limping the #14 Toys '4' All Dart home in 30th position after starting on the outside front row.
The result would drop Suzgar to 7th in the NSSCRA Regular Season standings, 25 points behind leader Jenna Logan and 1 point ahead of the more consistent Cetur Tiones in 8th position. Teammate Yraaga Gilli'i currently holds on to the final transfer spot into the NSSCRA Chase in 16th.
As for the NSSCRA Pick 'em Standings, the result in Kermania had little effect at the top of the table with @covehopper and @PinkHKluvs2718 each putting in performances outside the Top 10. The gaps did shrink however with @covehopper's lead down to just 13 points over the reigning champion from Cassadaigua while a trio of new faces have joined the challenge as @DJCleverPork of New Northwesteros just 1 point behind while the inseparable pen-pals Dario Mizushima and Lane Carter seem bonded at the hip as they maintain a tie for the Celebrity lead and 4th overall on 529 points heading into Round 5.
The inclusion of the Mavaloiao Motorplex on the Race of Stars schedule was completely out of left field as the small Dirt Facility is mostly not known outside of central Atlantian Oceania - unlike the other four circuits on the Race of Stars schedule which are some of the most well known and historic circuits in the multiverse. However, the Mavaloiao Motorplex does offer a unique signature at the fundamental root of what the Race of Stars stands for - cross discipline Motorsports. While Tropicorp officials had initially discussed holding the iROS round and the partially sand Tropicoast Beach Course or even on a makeshift course utilizing only the Beach portion of the speedway, it was ultimately decided that a true local dirt track would provide the most unique experience for drivers and fans alike.
The iRoS Round 3 event at the Mavaloiao Motorplex will take place the night prior to the Tropicorp 500 with the Everlong Contenders series race scheduled at the Tropicorp Beach Course getting an 11:00 Local Start time to ensure completion with enough time for whichever driver ends the event as the Contenders Series Points Leader to hop on the Mavaloiao Ferry in time for the open shakedown of the iRoS cars on the dirt of the motorplex. While Ferry service between Mavaloiao and Tropicoast is already set to be at triple the normal frequency for the duration of the Tropicorp 500 Race Weekend, it is expected that there will be additional surge ferry service going to Mavaloiao following the Contenders series race as well as returning to Tropicoast.
Race of Stars officials have not yet announced who the Fans Choice driver for the iRoS round at the Mavaloiao Motorplex will be but the Curriculum Vitae's of a number of dirt-specialist drivers began popping up on twii.tur shortly following the announcement.
