Mt Everest is known in it's native language of Nepali as "Sagarmatha" or Forehead of the Sky.

I only just found this out and thought it was very interesting.
Obviously the designers knew this because the sagarmatha track itself is set in an icy environment, although I didnt notice any mountains, or being particularly high up.
But then again, I was probably too concerned with eliminating the ag-sissies.

Dear diary...
Today Thruster called my favourite team an "Ag-Sissies". (note - things to do tommorow - buy a chainsaw, and chase Thruster down the street to the sweet melody of my scream and the chainsaw motor running)..

Not to mention Tonfa are usually made from wood (unless yours are some fancy-pants modern low-weight composite material).

You guys have to admit though it is very easy to take out AG-5Y5 craft

P.S. Thruster, check the description of Sagarmatha in the track/class select screen, pretty sure it says there that it's set in the mountains of Nepal.

nope. Just standard ol' wood for me, thanks.
And I also think it says the track is somewhere in nepal, I just didnt realise that the racetrack is ON mount everest. Pretty cool, huh!
