StadiumA1 is a track in TrackMania United Forever and is one of the most notable tracks in the game, being worth over 11 million skill points at the time of writing. This has lead to the track being cheated the most out of any TMUF Track, with many varied methods over the years.
The track can be described as a glorified U-turn. It begins with a chicane followed by an uphill jump, and finishes with two left-hand turns and two drop-down sections. While structurally simple, the layout heavily rewards precision and consistency.
World Record History[edit]
Since its release, StadiumA1 has remained a pure execution-based track. No shortcuts or route-breaking strategies have ever defined its competitive history. Instead, progress has come entirely from cleaner driving and marginal mechanical optimizations.
One notable improvement discovered over time is the use of a brief airbrake after the first uphill. This allows one wheel to make ground contact earlier, enabling earlier acceleration and saving a small amount of time.
Beyond such minor refinements, the world record progression of StadiumA1 has consisted almost exclusively of incremental gains, with records being lowered hundredth by hundredth over the years.
Tool-Assisted Speedruns[edit]
The TAS used to do a wall hit during the first jump to reduce airtime, and the rest of the run was unchanged. It was then improved to instead get a bluebug in the uphill to reduce airtime, although it still isn't much faster than the WR. It does not uber or noseboost, which can be often seen in Stadium.
