This week on High Scores High Stakes, it’s a three-way showdown in Ride 5 as Luvva, Tomahawk, and Cardinal tackle the legendary North West 200 motorcycle course — with no rider assists allowed. It’s raw skill, brutal corners, and plenty of digital road rash.

As the lap times heat up, so do the rivalries. Can Cardinal’s clean lines beat Luvva’s all-gas-no-brakes approach? Will Tomahawk keep it legit after last week’s “creative interpretation” of the rules? (We haven’t forgotten, Tom.)

Expect high-speed gaming chaos, competitive time trial action, and enough trash talk to void a warranty.

🎧 What to Expect:

• Full-throttle motorcycle sim racing on the North West 200

• Roasting Tomahawk for last week’s “tactical advantage”

• No assists, no mercy, and no dignity left intact
