History[]
2018[]
As a newcomer into the sport, Phoenix had a great debut in Race 1 of Sand Marble Rally 2018, finishing in a 4th place (which is actually the second-highest race finish for an SMR debutant excluding the inaugural season). In Race 2, Phoenix's competence in the midfield was solidified with a modest 9th place, followed by an unfortunate 18th finish in Race 3.
In Race 4, however, they made their mark. Starting strong, they fought ferociously over pole position against Blue Moon, attaining the lead for most of the first half. Blistering pace from Superball would remove Phoenix from the top spot, and they would have to settle for a 3rd place finish. Although Race 5 would be a pain for Phoenix with an 18th place finish, they made their return to form in Race 6, their pace becoming more consistent as they grabbed a second podium finish.
While Race 7 was an alright performance, Race 8 put Phoenix on the radar with their first win of the competition. They finished second overall, their position in the standings matched the record of highest championship finish by a rookie, which is also currently held by Red Number 3.
2019[]
2nd place in 2018 meant that Phoenix automatically qualified for the Marble Rally 2019. However, Phoenix had a dismal 2019 season, never being a threat to the front-runners anywhere. They had a mega sophomore slump finishing in 19th only ahead of H2 Blue, with a best finish of sixth place in the final race and overall collecting barely over one-third of their rookie season point tally. Just a year after getting hyped up as the next big thing in marble racing, they ended up being relegated to the Showdown where they would compete in 2020.
2020[]
Phoenix was meant to compete in the Marble Rally 2020 Showdown, but this was cancelled and Phoenix was not invited to compete in Marble Rally 2020.
