    Turnpike Overpass(FORMERLY KNOWN AS SPEEDWAY) is a race map designed as and giant figure eight. Sounds boring, i know. But ive placed some things which make this old style of track so much more. At the start, everyone spawns as their own teams VIP. The VIP is able to drive vehicles which makes this possible. The first turn is a complete U turn and when you come out of it there is a speed bump to slow you down for the upcoming bank turn that is turn 2. Coming off the bank turn the player must go up and over the bridge to turn 3; also a complete U turn. Coming out of turn 3 there are two tunnels which people can go through. The purpose of this is so players separate for a second or two to regain their bearings. Then coming out of the tunnels the track narrows into turn 4. The purpose of the narrowing is to slow players down because turn 4 is such a crazy turn. Coming out of turn 4 is the score ramp. For the sake of keeping people from camping the score ramp there is no way into the goal area other than via your mongoose. The teleporters in front of and behind the score ramp keep it all fair. If a player should try to walk into the score area they will be sent to the penalty box which you must kill yourself to get out(losing one point) giving other players time to lap you. Thank you for your time and have fun!

    The Game variant required for this map is Daytona 500

    It looks a bit sloppy, but not that that matters for gameplay or anything. Just kind of drives an OCD person like me insane.

    you need to propel them out of the scoring box or else they will just sit there...

    I will dl this, but I'm curious if the speed bump actually slows the mongeese down. Why is it there?

    if the speedbump isn't there, then you hit the bank turn too fast and fly into the wall.

    Re: Speedway

    So far from I see my general feeling is meh. It could use lot's of interlocking especially on the banked turn and the name also needs to be spiced up.
