F.A.Q
Q: Why audio still sounds like it was recorded in your toilet?
A: Well, I tried to change it's bitrate, and ended up with YouTube not processing the audio correctly, leading to no sound at all. It requires further investigation, which requires a lof of time.

Q: Why did you revert Ramone and Luigi's icons?
A: They are from Race-O-Rama, and since Ramone and Luigi do not have their stores in every city of world (obviously), these icons were replaced to the custom garages ones. Since Mater-National happens only in Carburetor Country - there is no much sense to replace those, other icons are just ruining Mater-National's vibe.

Q: Is that it for the story mode overall?
A: No, everytime I find a bug or a thing or two to add or fix, and this mostly happens off-screen, and I must post a video anyways.

Q: Why don't you cut some parts of the video?
A: Because there are some people who think that my build is as unstable as me in my teen age, but in reality - it works COMPLETELY fine!

Known bugs and inconviniences:
Fuel Frenzy is intended to have 5 racers, but it has only 4 - [Unknown fix]

AI monsters frequently go rather backwards - [Unknown fix]
Paint-Jobs and Wheel-Sets are not separate from it's paint-jobs and are unlocked right away - [Pending]
