December 2nd - Season 1

The Circuit of the Year End Bash

After the announcement that the Fuel Speedway will be expanding, it was also announced that the next pay-per-view would be called the YEAR END BASH and would take place in 2 weeks times — instead of the usual 4 weeks in an effort to allow the F-X racers to have a Christmas Holiday.

As such, the YEAR END BASH has become highly anticipated as it will serve as a mid-season finale of sorts. Everything about it is hotly anticipated so it was a thrill when the YEAR END BASH circuit was released a mere 8 days after the previous PPV, Show-Down.

During the announcement for this new circuit, it was revealed that the circuit will be a precursor to the new Fuel Speedway as not only a means to foreshadow the facelift to Fuel’s new home circuit but also to test the waters so to speak and see how the fan base reacts to the nature of F-X racers driving around an L.

The track will see a return to the outskirts of the city of Ngelosi as it seems to bend around the location of Show-Down’s track. There is a notable and extreme kink on the northern most side which should definitely test the skills of all the drivers on the racecard.

While it didn’t receive it immediately, the track eventually earned its nickname on Monday Night Fuel and is affectionately known as “the elbow” due to it’s very elaborate bend from a Northerly/Southerly direction to a Westerly/Easterly direction.

It’s hard to say which racers have an advantage on this type of track but whoever manages to come out on top will surely look to rule the Fuel Speedway.

Who Holds the Crown after Show-Down?

King Thorne reigns supreme after yet another successful title defense  at Show-Down. Twenty-four hours later on Monday Night Fuel, King Thorne took to the stage following a chorus of boos which he was quick to take exception to. He explained that he read a lot of the comments on F-X social media about his race and saw that most of them weren’t about the race itself but rather about  the frequency of his races on Monday Night Fuel.

“Quite frankly as King I shouldn’t have to appear at all until pay-per-view but I do anyway. So I think that you guys should be grateful."

He went on to say that  he’s addressed this issue directly by saying that he won’t be on Fuel for the next two weeks and will appear again at the next PPV which he announced as the YEAR END CELEBRATION.

We would find out later that King Thorne had not been authorized to announce the title of the next PPV and that in fact the title he’d announced had only been a working title and that they had instead decided to call it the YEAR END BASH.

King Thorne would also respond to one of the most talked about moments of the night: the challenge laid down by newcomer, Mandla Xulu, saying that if he wanted a shot at his Crown, he’d have to go to the back of the line.

We would find out later from Glenwood Jacobs that  King Thorne had been correct as the feature-race of the night was going to be Mandla Xulu going up against Darcy Stevens.

The Down Town Circuit

It’s less than a week before the pay-per-view and you know what that means… it’s time to look at the circuit for SHOW-DOWN.

The third PPV track released on F-X social media by Club President Moodswing has quickly been named the ‘must-see track of the year’ with many calling it a masterpiece. The ‘Glue Gun Track’ as it’s been named by the fandom on social media is the first track to take place slap-dab in the middle of the city.

It is clear right from the get-go that by the looks of the track, it has clearly been well thought through. With it’s long stretch making for some interesting drag action and curvy bends making for entertaining maneuvers of skill.

It’s not surprising that this track has it all as it’s been well documented that showrunners Moodswing and Glenwood Jacobs have been wanting to stage a PPV track in the down town metropolitan area for months now. And with the help of the local municipality, they’ve managed to pull through.

It has been noted that there has been an increased interest in this event in particular mostly due to it taking place in otherwise busy area of Ngelosi. It wouldn’t be strange to imagine that this is exactly why the showrunners wanted to have a track in the middle of the city… to garner the interest of those that have yet to be exposed to the Formula-X series.

We shall have to wait and see if this increased interest translates into box office success.

November 11th - Season 1

And with just under 2 weeks to go, we have officially got a title for the next pay-per-view: SHOW-DOWN. And what an apt name it is.

As we mentioned last week, SHOW-DOWN will take place in the down town metropolitan area which should introduce some interesting twists and turns with this mysterious route. Already on the racecard are sure to be spectacular races including  the feature-race for the F-X Crown between King Thorne Oberhauser and #1 Claimant, Darcy “Stevie” Stevens.

SHOW-DOWN will also have the distinction of naming the first ever Duke (or Duchess) of Drag in an epic drag race.

But the race that seems to befit the title of the PPV the most is the first ever  One KM Derby between John Kloof and Jim Kieck which will see both racers putting everything on the line to see who the better racer is once and for all.

But no matter who comes out on top there is no denying that the F-X fan base will be the true winner of the night with all this action that’s sure to be pulse-pounding and absolutely exhilarating and will undoubtedly put you on the edge of your seat.
