    EIGHT

    The Narrative...

    Imagine if you will, a typical day aboard the UNSC's newest Pleasure Facility, the USS ForgeHUB. In orbit, like any other day, you and your Spartan buddies are looking for laughs. You roam down the corridor to the Holographic Simulation Decks. A shady-looking character with green and gray odst armor and a deep voice steps from the shadows and says...

    "Hey, You Spartans wanna try a Sangelli Ritual Death Race?? ...I left our deck open, it's a blast!!! The projection timer may run out, just keep driving. Way down on the left, number EIGHT - Have Fun!"
    (as the scruffy old guy dashes away, down the hall.)

    You and your friends all nod, and up the stairs you go...
    (as the map intro cinematic plays...)

    The Race...

    Based on the Demolition Derby Figure Eight. (common during the summers on old earth, at Midwest county fairs.)
    Drivers will begin on opposing rows, when indicated, speed forward and continue around to the next checkpoint. Repeat. Dodge to Avoid or steer to Wreck into your friends, be agile or be aggressive. Only one winner, First Driver to total points is the "WINNER" and may exit deck EIGHT.

    Built on the Breakout arena canvas, TWO Checkpoints (set score to 40 or more). For Rally Hog, Mongoose or Gungoose. 2-16 Drivers (4 or more is recommended). This map uses the common "Alpine Rally Race" cloned gametype assets. Drive between checkpoint markers to score points. Don't Fall. A 'marker' will appear over the LEADER showing WHO to PUSH off the edge. The map uses 511 scripted items, note the scenery change mid race. Please enjoy this with friends. Good Luck to all the contest map makers!

    Drive Fast! Have FUN!

    *This is my 25th finished map in Halo 5, more than half are for racing. EIGHT is my third on this canvas. (** I freakin' hate this canvas, it's evil, and an unforgiving forge environment, don't forge here!) - JAMN

    This is a cool concept. I like the idea of mixing up driving paths and working to dodge opponents. I feel the track could be longer to make it more adventurous, but still, cool concept.

    Thanks @CaptainDireWolf
    It is probably the 'most boring' Solo Drive track ever. I kept the track simple, to spend time with the appearance. I Hope people can have fun on it. I wanna see 16 mongoose video!

    Man this gotta be awesome with a full lobby!
    Neat concept!

    The idea with a changing track came across my mind sometimes in H4 but never really done it. My next project I'm think of is a point a to B race with gates you gain score from and unlocking new paths each round.
    But that involves scripting I've never done so that will be interesting.

    Never thought it would come up in H5.
    Glad it did :)
    Nice work!
