SnowA3 is a track in TrackMania United Forever, set in the Snow environment. The track is built primarily from wooden platform blocks and is considered a precision-focused map, with improvements over recent years coming in increments of only a few hundredths.
The layout consists of a raised U-turn, an uphill jump, and a left-hand banked turn leading into the finish.
World Record History[edit]
SnowA3 has not seen any major route-breaking discoveries, and its world record progression has been defined by small execution improvements rather than new strategies.
The current world record time is 21.94, first achieved by r1nt3 on 15 March 2025. This time was later tied by Zappz on 1 May 2025.

Strategies[edit]
Block Clip Wobble[edit]
After the uphill U-turn, the world record route intentionally lifts the right-side wheels by clipping a block edge. This causes a brief wobble that results in a small but measurable speed increase.
Jump Landing[edit]
On the track’s single jump, players perform a suspension trick to preserve speed and avoid triggering the Snow car’s landing bug.
Tool-Assisted Speedruns[edit]
The TAS for SnowA3 closely mirrors the real-time world record route. Rather than introducing new techniques, it demonstrates more precise execution of the same strategies used in RTA runs.
