    I started with the X-Games ramp and pretty much added 1000% to it.

    I created a huge race map pretty much crossing over the entirety of Forge World. What i think differs my map from a lot you have seen is the amount of time put into details. A little bit of everything and a lot of pieces used in unique ways. Lots of big jumps, fast speeds, and almost all of taking place in the air. Also a little flair foraesthetics.

    A great overview and on the way down into the mountain tunnel

    Another gravity jump before you descend the spiral of Claw Mountain!

    Barreling downhill to the surprise finish? Hows the lap end? Download to find out.




    Me and a friend put a lot of time into this and we just wanted to make something different. The best way i can describe it is just very polished. We wanted an epic feel but we also took a lot of care into how it looked and played. Every jump can be hit smoothly, every section can be completed without wrecking. We spent hours play testing and adjusting every piece where we wanted it. All flags are correct, all Killzones are inserted correctly, ect...... Nothing is just slapped together. We used a lot of pieces unconventionally but kept it practical and fun. You can through the track the first time, but you could play it dozens of times before mastering it.

    I cant stress how fun this can be with 8 friends just free for all racing and wrecking as you drive all over the vastness of ForgeWorld. A good lap should take you between 4 to 5 minutes.

    Give it a try, I also have a race variant that just puts it at 3 laps and increases the race time because some laps can take a while being as it is a really large track.

    You can download the map here: Bungie.net : Halo Reach : File Details

    And the race variant here: Bungie.net : Halo Reach : File Details
    (or you can just change the laps and time to what you prefer.)

    looks very tight, like something you don't want to play with more than 1 or 2 other people o_O

    There are a lot of tight sections but honestly Ive had the most fun when you are wheel to wheel battling down the spiral or edging in the lead for the jump. Its definitely not a traditional race track and thats what I like most about it.

    Its been my experience the more people you have the better.

    Hey man, this looks great. My son loves Sonic & Sega All Stars Racing but I'd rather he raced in Halo with me, and this map might be the one to convince him ;)

    Haha Drew I hope so.

    Sonic Eat your heart out. Thanks for the all the downloads so far. Also ive got a lot of positive feedback on my gamertag which has been much appreciated if anyone who sent the messages found my map from this site!

    I just want to get it out there so more people can try it and hopefully enjoy my hard work.

    Added after 6 Days 1:

    Shameless bump.

    If you liked this map, be on the look-out for my Ghost map coming soon.
