“ ”

The Victory Lap is a special taunt for all classes.

When the player selects it from the taunts menu, they enter a team-colored bumper car identical to the ones seen in Carnival of Carnage and Gravestone. While taunting, the player can remain still, or move freely in any direction. Movement speed and traction is reduced when using this taunt, and a quiet, humming sound effect loops while it is active. The player can also press primary fire (default key: MOUSE1) to honk the bumper car's horn. Upon ending the taunt, the player stands up, the bumper car almost instantly disappearing, with a quiet, magical "poof" noise.
