The Blue River Raceway[1] is a minigame in Season 9, created by EthosLab and Rendog. Later, FalseSymmetry was also involved to help expand the start area. It was a huge boat ice racetrack built on the frozen rivers of snowy tundra and frozen ocean.

During the Decked Out 2 Guest Event, the first test races took place when the track was almost ready. The project was fully completed shortly thereafter. A few days before the Season 9 finale, the track was finally fully used for racing during the Hermitcraft Grand Prix. Fourteen Hermits took part in nine races (three practice loops, three qualifying loops, two grid loops and one shenanigans loop), after which FalseSymmetry became a winner.

Track[]

Parts of track:

Parts of track Description
The tunnel The beginning part of the track, a wide tunnel running under the mountain, with ground fully made out of packed ice. The main obstacles are the columns in the middle and on the sides.
Pavilion Band A very wide turn around the Pavilion.
Shortcut Chicane A short part of the track divided into two parts by three small islands:
  • Right - longer, but easier way.
  • Left - shortcut, but requires bouncing off the islands to run perfectly.
ImpulseSV Filter Another, much longer track splits into three routes:
  • Left - longest, but it provides the most advantageous exit to Pink Petal Pass.
  • Middle - medium long and the easiest.
  • Right - "shortcut", but most difficult and provides a poor exit to Pink Petal Pass.
Pink Petal Pass A wide part of the track filled with eleven cherry trees as obstacles. Additionally, there are snow strips on the sides of this area that slow down the boat.
Polar Bear Express The longest part of the track, allowing you to achieve the greatest speed. It consists of straight sections of road and light, rare bends. The ground varies between regular ice and packed ice, and there are also stripes of blue ice. The main obstacle are the polar bears that roam this part of the track.
Wizard's Hut The last part of the PBE, but with slowing strips of snow on the sides of the track.
Blue Rock Tunnel The longest tunnel, connects Rendog's part of the track with EthosLab's part.
Villager Shortcut TBA
Snowmen TBA
