Beef Race is a scheme similar, but prior to the popularity of Darts. The idea of launching worms to a scoreboard is the same and both schemes use the rope. The difference is that what launches a worm is not only the rope, but cows too. The idea is to release many cows from a rope attached to a wall and then use the rope to reach the cows before they explode, positioning the worm on a good spot that will cause an explosion due to the impact of the cows. The worm will fly to the scoreboard and the winner will be the player who scores the most points after all the worms are used. Note that the main skill that the scheme explores in the player is his/her ability to concentrate as many cows as possible in one place and still position the worm in front of them to fly as far as possible.
Note that usually enabling TestStuff is recommended. Most of the available schemes use Low Gravity and the power of the cows is set to 15 (maximum). The turns of the schemes are long. Depending on the map, the scheme may differs, though. Note that the schemes available are untouched, so they are not updated to v3.8 features, some of them like phased worms may be useful to the schemes.

The scheme was created by Cueshark, confirmed by himself (after a conversation with Kevin04) and Chicken23 that played the scheme with the author long ago. The oldest WMDB map upload dates 4th July 2005 and was made before this date, by Djoszee. However, this other map says it is the version 3.0 of a 2005 map by Cueshark. The version 1.0 of the map can be found in .BIT format.
There is a scheme + map upload from WoRmS.oRg.Ua (russian website) dating 6th May 2008.
One of the oldest Beef Race scheme versions does not have Low Gravity and the power of the cows is standard (3).
