    Many great things in this map such as
    -A good lengthy map
    -Great jumps and landings
    -Neatly merged turns allowing easy racing
    -A single front flip launch


    Use Racetracks with this map!

    Tried this out. A couple of the roads made with walls are a little bumpy, but I think that makes it more interesting. Also that bottleneck part where only one mongoose can get through would make for some interesting race gameplay. I'm amazed someone could forge something this good and not know about bungie.net and screenshots!!! Sign up at bungie.net if you haven't, hallowhead1. You can take screenshots on your box and download them to your computer, so you don't have to post grainy stills taken off your tv :)

    EDIT: some of the jumps don't work 100% of the time. IF you aren't fairly centered, you fly off.... A LOT. and I was driving on it by myself

    Wow! just wow. Though the pics and video quality are not the best, the map itself is truly amazing. merging is al clean, neat and beautiful and smooth. I love the front flip mechanism. Does it work 100% of the time? 5/5 from me its amazing

    The front flip if you come in to fast sometimes slips and you fly straight forward but if you come in nice and slow and smooth it works like a charm, and if you don't quite make it to the landing there is a shield door to bounce you onto the landing smoothly. Thankss!

    The map has some pretty unqiue features but isn't really a top quality track from what it could be with a little bit of editing. I can tell from the video that there are mutlible parts of the map that seem too bumpy and cause a problem for driving in a race whether it lead to falling off the track or just slowign them down.

    I have played this map and I love the front flip, mainly because I have played WAY to many "unique" maps that feature a back flip, and this is the first front flip I've seen so far. Although, is there anyway that you can fix the front flip launcher so that you do a front flip indefinately, rather than having to go slow? Unless I had read this post, I wouldn't have known to go slow on the front flip, and it wouldn't have worked for me, and I would have missed out on a lot! Thanks!!!!!!

    I kinda wasn't thinking straight when i said you have to go slow, i really meant is that you can't come in bumpy but you can come in fast. If you come in bumpy you will not hit the certain thing that makes you do the front flip, i have tried and tried again but i can't seem to make it work when you come in bumpy. I have put at least 3 hours in just adjusting it, that doesn't even include building time. I am continuing to try and fix it but i have no guarantee's.

    Three problems that shouldn't be hard to fix


    1. This map looks WAY too easy to cheat on. Put on a teleporter/grav-lift mechanism to prevent people from walking through the destination. If you're not sure what I mean check out some other well made racing maps' finish lines (look at any of xDREAM 76x's posts).

    2. Add some more asthetics. Just put some cool stuff floatin' around. Consider making a theme (if you have enough budget). But congrats on the actual track, it is very smooth and well made. Say, is this your first racing map?

    3. Even though I personally have the gametype, add a link to RACETRACKS so newbies to racing won't put on slayer gametypes.


    These three problems must be fixed (or at least the first two) before I will consider making room for this in my hard drive. Once again, congrats on making a non-suckish racing map. Keep forging

    Yeah the Finnish line i wanted to be in air so no-one could cheat but i ran out of money so i can't really do anything else about that, i do have a budget clean map that i found after i started that map. This is my first circuit map i have made a racing objective map called the leap of faith check it out. Thanks and i will take this into future consideration for my next race maps

    amazing

    I liked crush the car soo much i had to see if you had any other forges i went to your profile and saw some maps, i downloaded them and was amazed. Your maps are really good. This is a extremely fun race map, the front flip is really unique. All though the turns are a little hard to get used to i i give it a 5/5
