Crate Race is a Wascar variant in which the objective of the game is to complete 1 lap of advantage over your opponent (all worms moving in the same direction) and then kill his/her 1HP worm with Baseball Bat (Fall Damage causes zero damage) to win. Crates may help giving zero damage weapons to gain extra time (the retreat).

How to play (WO tournament description)
Players rope always in the same direction of the map, doing laps. You can attack another player only if you have gained at least one lap advantage over your opponent, and you can only attack using Baseball Bat. The other weapons don't do damage, but can be used to keep roping during the retreat time. Worms have 1 health point (but there is NO FALL DAMAGE, so keep roping).
This is a thrilling, fast-paced roping game. Crates drop almost every turn, and you can use their weapons to drop them and gain extra roping seconds at the end of your turn.
Weapons from crates can be:
- Grenades
- Moles
- Select Worm (if you are unlucky!)
Rules
So the rules are:
- First player chooses which direction to go. The rest stick to that direction.
- You can only attack when you have at least one lap of advantage over your opponent.
- You must use the official tourney scheme!
- Play on maps from the map pack!
- In games having more than 2 players (may happen):
- A player can go back and attack another player as long as he doesn't lose the one-lap advantage.
History
According to this 2011 WO tournament (hosted by seBa, with the aid of KiTar), the scheme was created by Dragon (from clan NBR). OutofOrder is the author of several maps of this scheme. There is a BTP page with some files under the name "Crate Race", indicating that this scheme might be from 2006 or earlier.
Similar names
After this scheme
The is a scheme of the same name created in 2015 by Kangaroo (Kangaroo's Crate Race) which is also played with rope on tight tunnels, but the objective is different, because you have to collect lots of crates on the map (RubberWorm allows that) to win (the one who collects the highest number of crates wins).
