The Tenderizer

A test of handling like no other. Big Dog himself laid this course out after Hangnail Johnson joked he was going soft. Peppered with boulders and tiny squeezes through harsh canyons, the Tenderizer truly separates the wheat from the chaff, and the living from the dead.

"Let's see Hangnail do *this* in 5th gear." - Big Dog

- Festival Card #053

The Tenderizer is a track featured in the original MotorStorm. It is a maze of tight, twisting pathways, intermixed with numerous boulders, obstacles and jumps littering the track. There is plenty of mud and also some higher, dryer routes to suit the lighter classes.

Festival Events[]

"S.O.S." - Racing Trucks - "The Tenderizer is tight and technical. Be careful with your line choice, avoid the mud wherever you can, and have a blast."
"Figure Of Hate" - Mudpluggers - "In a Mudplugger you are - guess what routes to use can you? If finding yourself amongst the rocks with too many opponents you are, learn the true meaning of 'tenderize' you will. Hmmm."
"Facelift" - ATVs - "Is it a bike or an automobile? Who cares! The ATV is stable, likes a little mud, and eats those pussy Bikes for breakfast. Just don't mess with the Big Rigs."
"Meat Packer" - Bikes - "Hitting anything travelling at speed will kill you, so take the jumps and try and stay off the floor as much as possible. Then, when the road banks, use it to get some air and slingshot yourself through the valley. Lure the other vehicles into rocks by getting them to tail you and take the bait."
"Brutalized" - Buggies - "There are plenty of bottlenecks here; choose an empty line or you'll be eating someone else's dirt for the whole race."
"Massive Damage" - ATVs - "First Tenderizer on an ATV? Lucky you. Embrace the dirt. Bully the Bikes. Have a ball."
"Rough Diamond" - Mudpluggers - "Mudplugger + Tenderizer = aggression. Keep up with the ATVs and do your best to hurt them. They's forgive you when it's all over. I'm lying. They'll stalk you. Then kill you. Then wear your skin."
"The Fun Factory" - ATVs - "Finding overtaking opportunities should always be a priority on this event. With so much aggression and testosterone flying around, sometimes playing a waiting game can pay off - hang back and wait for the carnage to thin the pack out before making your move. To make it this far means you are an incredible driver. Prove it once more."

Devil's Weekend Event[]

"Wheels Of Fire" - Atlas Arizona - "Early evening on the Tenderizer. A time of chaos, of ruined dreams. In the roar of an engine, in this blighted place, victory this day might finally be yours. (And just wait until you see what you're going to be driving in this hellish wasteland. Ding Ding!)"

Trivia[]

It has a Festival Card in MotorStorm: Apocalypse.
This track tends to get clogged up easily by opponents, so it is advised to keep a good distance from the Mud Pluggers, and try to stay ahead of the pack.
If selecting this track from the Devil's Crossing DLC event, you will automatically drive the Atlas Arizona big rig, the only vehicle that can be selected whereas other opponents are in Mud Pluggers, Bikes and Buggies.
