    Island Race (Click Here!)
    Features a bridge of containers over part of the track, a container/grav lift jump, starting lights, an objective you can't stand in to cheat and a 1 minute release penalty for everyone who goes through the objective on foot.

    Full Description:
    The race starts off inside the main building. Do not open the gate! Get on one of 6 mongooses and wait for the starting lights in front of you to turn blue. After it turns blue start the race. Drive out over the sloped gate and follow the teleporter straight ahead. Take a left after Forman and go into the bidge made of containers. At the end of the bridge is your objective and a grav lift. The grav lift shoots over a gap and next to the wall. Go onto the wall using a grav lift turn. Follow the wall until you reach the stairs down. Go down the stairs and take a left. Follow track over the beach until you reach the water by the trees. After going through the water you do a small jump and go through the arch under the wall. After the arch you go under the bridge and jump through the wind mill. Take a left and jump over the track through one of the two containers. Take a right and start again.

    Teleporters around the objective teleport everyone who is on foot into the penalty box. Every minute the teleporter inside the box becomes unblocked. Go through the teleporter and you're back by the starting line.

    Rules:
    -Shortcuts are difficult in this race but in some places it is possible to break through the track. Never take any shortcuts, follow the track.

    Tips:
    -Don't go through the objective on foot because it will give the other racers a big lead before you get released.

    Awesome, it never occurred to me to use the penalty box on the original maps. I'll give this a go tonight and let you know what I think, but the pictures and description look great.

    It stops people from standing in the objective but people can still cheat by taking shortcuts on the beach so it doesn't completely stop cheating.

    Just a heads up: looks like one of your embedded pictures isn't working properly.

    you need a ""

    This map looks really good. I like the "container bridge" and the removal of honor rule without needing Foundry.

    Nice. I like the starting line touch. The little street light thing going on is crazy awesome.

    Very good. 10/10, and it's on LR which means I can actually download it.

    I'm glad that you put enough effort into it not to have it on Foundry. Sure, it's probably not as good as most Foundry maps because of the lack of immobile objects and such, but then it is also harder.

    Well done.
