We now have an active Youtube-channel thanks to Snake who wanted to begin contribute to it. For starters, he's uploaded an update-video to show what to expect from the channel in the future.

A huge shoutout to WMJ who has now completed his very useful F-Zero X Tutorials project by finishing off the last couple of tracks:

Sand Ocean 2

Port Town 2

Big Hand

Check out the playlist where you can find all previous tutorials.

AKC12 has compiled machine stats data for all F-Zero GX original machines and certain custom machines. He then proceeded to rate them out of 10 in three different categories (Boost Acceleration, Boost Top Speed and Boost Duration), which then were combined into an overall rating. Here's a summary of the ranking as it turned out.

New month, new awesome TASes from Memory and JAGG_ZERO:

F-Zero Maximum Velocity TAS Crossroad Circuit (Knight 2) 1'57"29

[TAS] Backwards F-Zero X EK: Mute City 4 - Slim Half-pipe ~ 0'50"882

[TAS] Backwards F-Zero X Custom Track: Tidal

Two new tournaments have been announced: First off, the F-ZERO GX Nexus Cup Tournament which will start on May 1st. Sign-ups and rules can be found here. Secondly, F-Zero VS will be hosting their second major F-Zero SNES tournament in the F-Zero Classic (VS) Fire Field Championship which will begin on August 3rd. Sign-ups and rules for this event can be found here.

Valyssa performed an F-Zero GX All Tracks Time Attack speedrun at BSG Monthly #21. Link to the VOD.

An exciting new project by themistik called the F-Zero Garage has been announced. If the project becomes reality, this would seemingly be a very useful service where you can share custom F-Zero tracks to each other in a much more convenient way than ever before. Read more about the project.

A substantial amount of new F-Zero GX mods have been released this month. Check out the F-Zero GX Gamebana page to learn more about them.

And lastly for the highlights, F-Zero was voted third most wanted unannounced franchise for the Nintendo Switch! Will Nintendo take notice? Probably not, but one can still foolishly hope it will make some kind of difference at least.

This month we saw 6 new WRs being set in total.

In F-Zero X, WMJ continued to play Mute City using the new strategy that was found last month by JAGG_ZERO, but this time on the PAL version instead. He managed to improve both WRs on this track with times of 1'12"889 and 18"171 using this new strategy. Also active was RichardTaro who continued to play PAL on the Jumper-setting. This time, he set new WRs on Port Town 2 with times of 1'49"631 and 33"296:
