Great Northwestern Race: October 23rd 2021
Harbor decided to host a spin-off event: the Great Northwestern Race on October 23rd 2021. The event would consist of one singular race: from Norwest through Kaloro City, Carnoustie, Larkspur to Miu Wan. The race ran along highways, most notably the A92.
Needn_NL was the winner of the event, with AirplaneNiner coming in second place, Minecraft252 in third.
Harbor was also drunk throughout the event, having drank some fruit beer.
Season 3: February 12th 2022, February 19th 2022
Season 3 was supposed to happen in December 2021. However, Harbor would delay it due to the fallout of the infamous October SSM. As the server finally began to recover in the early weeks of 2022, he would announce a 3rd season.
Unlike the past 2 seasons, the sixth and final host of Formula MRT was kept secret. Harbor and Hightech_TR conspired to "leak" the final host as Central City, when in reality it was GSM Town all along. Many fell for this trick, as Harbor even "leaked" it in a private group chat treating it as real.
The season was also fraught with issues. Both Calgary and GSM Town's races had to be redone due to unexpected issues with the track. There was also an area in GSM Town that according to some racers, lagged the server.
AlphaDS retook the crown to be the first double Formula MRT champion this season, with lalaboy in second and frogggggg in third.

Season 4: June 25th 2022, July 2nd 2022
Season 4 took place during the summer of 2022. Once again, it hosted a secret race not revealed until the event itself. Unlike Season 3, the secret race was not held on a circular track, instead on a long track through Bahia similar to the Great Northwestern Race's route. Furthermore, it also spawned the infamous "banana my ass" joke.
AlphaDS became a three-time champion in this season, with PaintedBlue in second and chimata in third.

Season 5: February 18th 2023, February 25th 2023
Due to some internal issues and Harbor getting tempbanned, Season 5 was delayed significantly. Eventually, it finally took place in early 2023, sparking the best Formula MRT season yet. The secret race was held once again, this time in Boston.
Surprisingly, michabos had managed to defeat the reigning three-time champion AlphaDS and take the crown to be Formula MRT's third champion. Alpha was the runner-up, with ItsNotJasper in third.
