Need for Speedathon returns for 2020!

Once again, the Need for Speed speedrunning will be hosting their yearly all-NFS online marathon.

We're also delighted to be once again featured on the SpeedRunsLive twitch channel!

Racing games have traditionally seen difficulties in speedrunning culture due to difficulty in visualizing the time aspect. If the goal is to race fast anyway, what's the point of speedrunning anyway? This marathon will answer that question.

SUBMISSION NOTES

Submissions will run until July 26, 10pm UTC / midnight CEST. Before submitting, please make sure you are either in the NFS community discord ( https://discord.gg/EZwwQ93 ) or have your discord profile set in your speedrun.com user profile.

Availability field is disabled as asking so far in advance likely procures inaccurate data. This field will be enabled July 3rd.

On the same day, signups for "open blinds" will become available. These will be opt-in, potentially blind races with racers picked based on their availability.
