The Aggro Drifter

I made a couple of downloadable tracks in ModNation Racers (MNR) today specifically for grinding technical trophies such as number of drifts, power-ups used, sideswipes made etc. Just search text "Demirincar" without the quotation marks and you can find my tracks, as well as custom mods and karts that I've made. The tracks are very long so you can easily get more than 200 drifts in one race if you set the laps to 9. Set the speed to Rookie, difficulty to easy and set any number of A.I. racers (having more racers means more chances to sideswipe and takedown, less racers mean less interruption if you're aiming for clean laps and drifts). These tracks are also good for practising your cornering, drifting and handling skills in addition to learning how to successfully takedown other racers, depending on the race type.

Set the race type to Action Race if you're grinding for takedowns, shield usage, successful secondary weapon hits, the Trigger Happy trophy or training your offensive driving skills. The Pacifist trophy and the Slow and Steady trophy can be obtained from my tracks, but it is advisable to choose shorter tracks for those trophies due to the length of my tracks; any single mistake can easily cost you 1st place.

Set the race type to Pure Race if you're grinding for drifts, sideswipes or training your handling skills. Due to the amount of curves and bends in my tracks, you can almost always have your boost meter completely filled by drifting at every opportunity. By setting the number of A.I. racers to 11 (maximum), you have plenty of opportunities to sideswipe. 

If you are unable to search for my tracks via my username "Demirincar", search these track names.
  • Thousand Drifting Aggro
  • Drifting Aggro Peaks 
  • Drifting Aggro by the Sea

Please vote for my tracks if they were useful to you. Also be sure to check out my other creations such as mods and karts. Thanks!

Drifting on the Road

Today I returned to ModNation Racers (MNR) after a two year hiatus. Man, I'm rusty. But I still managed to get 12 new trophies today. Yay me! Here's a word of advice for people going for the Drifting Superstar (bronze) trophy in MNR. Search for Pesico's created track titled "Drifitng Superstar" without the quotation marks and download it. That track is the best track you're gonna find that will allow you to drift 100000 drift points in a single drift. Just try and get your drift started as early as possible just before you enter the spiral ramp and tap the left analog stick left or right accordingly to stay in the centre of the track Use the crocodiles as a marker. Don't worry, they will jump if you steer into them and you won't actually bump into them. They're there to give you a general guideline on how close you are to the track boundary. As soon as you get 100000 drift points, stop drifting and you should et the trophy (but don't run into a wall when you stop drifting or it won't count).

That track can also be used to get the Pacifist (bronze) and Slow and Steady (bronze) trophies easily. Since the A.I. is too stupid to drift continuously through the entire track, you should easily get 1st place when you perform the 100000 drift points drift. Avoid booster pads and don't use weapons and the two aforementioned trophies will be obtained.
