All the subsequent cups in both divisions allows for 4 misses before disqualifying the racer on the 5th miss. (Up from 2)

Aqua Moto Racing Utopia leaves Early Access!
Aqua Moto Racing Utopia is coming out of the closet, making the change, opening the door to a new future. It has made the transition from Early Access to Full Release. We want to thank all you Steamers for the help with feedback to make it better and spreading the word.
We will continue to support the game and there will be more things added later on. News on that will be released when it is time to do so.
At the same time we will be releasing Patch 5 for the game. We have been working on a lot of stuff inside the game this time. Some tech changes, stabilization and network related issues we have found. With this release we feel that we have a stable game which we can proudly sell at our full prize. In many ways we are more stable than many AAA games out there.
