Just wishing everyone the seasons greetings on behalf of Mania Exchange and the TMX Crew.

Thank you for visiting the site and for the contribution you all make, whatever you do, even if it is only to download some maps. We are looking forward to a great 2016 for Trackmania, with the much anticipated Trackmania Turbo just a few months away.



Cheers all and have a great new year too.

News from Nadeo today is that the release of TrackMania Turbo is delayed

Here is the forum post: https://forum.maniaplanet.com/viewtopic.php?f=524&t=31858

It's of course a disapointment, but if it results in TMT being the game we want, then its surely worth the wait.

Tonight there will be a TMU knockout.

We will return to a collection of oldschool tracks, mostly from TrackMania Original, combined with a few of MrA's selected tracks. It has worked in previous spontaneous knockouts, so we'll try it again . It's time for another Retro TMU Knockout!, with a bias towards classic environments...

Thursday 5th March 2015 : 20:00 GMT - (20:00 UK Time) - (21:00 CET)

Join the usual TMU KO server before the designated time to take part!

We have completed major site maintenance work (server move). With such a large change its possible there may be some things wrong or not working. Please report these on the 'Site Bugs' forum, and we will try and deal with them as best we can.

Thanks for your patience and for returning to Mania Exchange!
