    Description
    This monster of a racetrack is a twisted blast through the barren wasteland of Sandbox. While speeding along this 40 second long racetrack, that vast openness releases amazing game play and shows that no place is safe on this map. The incredibly smooth turns are neatly intertwined with each other to form the ultimate racetrack that will truly be one to remember. Created and designed by SpEcTaCuLar Ra and a big thanks to Goldman010 for multiple problems while in construction. The track is also completely uncheatable. Please reply and give some constructive criticism. Enjoy!!!!

    It looks great. I like the dunes part: very creative idea. I also like how it's bright in one part and dark in the other, whether it was planned or not. Quite an original gametype, smooth turns. The only question I have is how do you get back on when you fall off?

    very nice raceing map, its huge. its would stink if oyu fall of and you were so close to the end. i like how you can snipe and lazer while playing, it would help with no-scoping aiming alot also, so thats a good idea. i think for the "terrain turn" it should be one color instead of red and blue. but thats just my idea. good job with the map though, very impressive.

    holy shitt, this is your best race yet. all of your spectac races are amazing and unique, and this brings it to a new level. this track is awesome for the length of it, the clean merging, and the terrain part is probably the most unique thing i've seen yet on sandbox races on forgehub [except for "final effort's" backflip machine and seventh column jump].
    otherwise, awesome job, battle lasers is FTW on this map, and this ought to be featured NAOW.

    Well I knew that may be a problem so I put a teleporter in the middle of the map and another one by the blue turn that takes you back to the start. Most other racetrack makers do the same. Glad you like the map though.

    I would have to say an amazing racetrack for starters everything is cleanly merged so you can keep a constant speed bravo! Have a cookie.My treat. Also This is large so it makes for fun gameplay when using the laser would love to see another racetrack from you. 4/5

    The track looks really fun to play with that laser gametype, and I like how it's a racetrack that's not in the skybubble.

    Another great map from you, Spectac. This one is a beast of a track, winding all around Sandbox. I really love the smooth transitions from track to terrain and back to track. That first terrain turn is great for drifting. I, personally, don't care for the lighting effects, but I guess it goes with your title. I don't know if Flair told you, but the version you had up last night was cheatable as you could get a point before the teleporters sent you back to start. Other than that, there's not much to complain about on this track. :) Nice job.

    Like the rest of your races it looks well forged and smooth.
    Only problem is it looks boring. Especially after racing backburner.
    Here is my suggestion, have the corners higher and banked more, it would be more exciting then a generally flat track.

    Wow after playing this, I'd have to say this is in the top 5 racetracks ever made. The terrain part is simply amazing and the lighting was also great. Great aesthetics, great long map. Nothing to complain about. Thanks for the map!

    It actually isn't boring. Maybe if you race on it by yourself but when you play battle snipes or battle lasers with some friends on it, It just seems simply amazing. You should try it if you already haven't. Oh and about the corners, that's just my style of turns, I don't like them too banked. Thanks for the reply though.

    This is a nice map its big and no one does a racetrack on the ground. They all do it in the sky and thats it. When your in the dark and on the floor the walls are kinda sloppy. The gameplay looks good and I like it that u made it for lasers or just racing. Nice job.
