    Map Title: Glacier Rally
    Rallycross styled ATV racetrack with a long banked turn, overpass, and a turn suspended over the cliff edge.

    Description:

    Map - Avalanche

    Difficulty - Medium

    This track has....
    - a bridge overpass that functions as a manual pad for very long wheelies that are almost flawless
    - an "over the edge" section with an uncheatable checkpoint blocked to people on foot with teleporters that drop you down the cliff
    - a flawless long interlocked banked turn made out of forrunner ramps and energy blockers awesome for passing people
    - an overall "Rallycross" feel to it because of the speed you get driving over the map terrain sections
    - very difficult to cheat on, you will probably get behind if you try

    NOTE: the reason for only 6 + 1 spare mongoose is that i was working with a money glitch canvas and halfway through it F***ed up. 1 of my mongeese got locked up and now i cant get it out of the bank along with a few other objects...

    Thanks to HT CHEW myPLUMS for the help with shield door and grav-lift placement, and the hours of testing he put in. This track would not be what is is whithout his help.

    I have not seen many good racing tracks on Avalanche, but that can always change. This one looks very well designed and very spacious. Looks very nice. The circuit type thing is what grabbed my eye the most. 1st post btw

    Edit: Lol after i wrote that i saw that you were from HaloTracks

    You obviously put a lot of work into this. I am personally not a big fans of race maps, but you got my DL.

    i said id reply and here it is- after playing the map it felt like i was driving over ratsnests smooth roads it was beautiful the banked turn is orgasmic and the rest of the track has a relatively easy yet fun competetiveness all the way along. my only issue is i could never get a wheelie of your bridges ='[ but hey i suck :D 5/5 nice one

    you usually get the wheelie when you hit the bottom of the bridge just to the left of the center where the snowbank is slightly higher than the bottom of the bridge. this causes your nose to falldown a little bit off the bank which then bounces your nose back up a little bit as you are ascending. by the time you get to the top you should be in a vertical wheelie. just keep going forward and you will level out when you get to the bottom. this is honestly my favorite part of the track.

    That looks great! Fantastic interlocking especially off the cliff, which I would think something near-inpossible.
