- Groups larger than eight players cannot fit the stated online match size
Our take on Junk on Wheels
The bounce point comes when racing is tied to combat. Players seeking clean laps may hit a wall at weapon pickups, exploding barrels, and the requirement to destroy opponents or outrun them while scoring points across staged events.
