    YouTube - Infrared Cruise- A Halo 3 Racetrack

    Edit: Track now featured on BattleTracks.net. View the feature post here.

    V3 Changes:
    Aesthetics added.
    Spawns set up for BT.
    Weapons added.
    Kill Balls moved.
    Lights moved.
    Minor bumps in track fixed.

    V2 Changes:
    "Destination moved." (See what I did there?)
    Kill Balls moved to one location so you dont hear them all of the time.

    Infrared Cruise is my first Sandbox racetrack. I believe it is one of the best so far (out of the ones I've seen). [Insert note about bias here.] I also think that (correct me if I am wrong) this is the first banked racetrack on Sandbox. Edit: I was wrong. Sadface.

    I'm not entirely sure whether you intended to do this or not, but it seems as though the track was designed to form an '8'. If this were the case, we could assume that you made at least a few errors, causing the track to become relatively distorted in shape.

    Yes, good sir, you are wrong. Halotracks already has a couple with banked turns. Sorry to let ya down.

    This is a pretty nice track. Pretty good interlocking. A great track design. It flows really well. The only major problem is the checkpoint placement, as it is faster to go through and fall off (accidental or not) than it is to complete the track. Other than that, the kill balls get old after a few laps. I just get tired off hearing them buzz and they take away from the beauty of the track, IMO. Although it could be a tad bit smoother, this is a really fun well-made track. JimP Factor: 76%

    This is most certainly the best sandbox race map I've seen on forgehub so far, although maybe not on other websites. The interlocking looks pretty good, and the aesthetics are also fairly good. The only real fault I can point out is that in certain places the track looks kinda bumpy, although maybe this is just the picture. I'll DL as soon I my mythic maps come. =)

    Anyway looks good, 4.5/5.

    Wow, this is nothing compared to what I could do, yours is so much better.
    Very nice interlocking, it looks really smooth, and it is cool the infrared, but it's dark, It is cool, but the Juicy is not my favorite I like it plain, but to get that effect it works great. The Banked Turn 2, it is a really great job, all perfectly aligned, I would have to say very nice job :)

    And now on top of all of this, Dream wants to feature it on BT. I didn't know it was really that good!

    I really like to looks of this. All the interlocking looks very good and the whole track looks very smooth. It looks like having to go slow is not an issue. I'll definitely DL this. It looks awesome.

    I like this track alot. It is very smooth and some could be better but it is very hard to fix which is what is happening to my track i'm making right now (it won't be done for a while lol). This track is very long and definetly the best sandbox track yet

    Hmm very good. Very good indeed. I must admit this is one of the best tracks I've seen on sandbox yet. Although it is a short list, it's still nonetheless impressive. I especially like that you found a way to make those ugly kill balls actually look epic as well. I saw them in Juicy at first and figured "well that's dumb", but after looking at this map all that seems to change. Very smooth looking and it's funny that you used the flags the same way I did. Great minds think alike I guess yea?

    Anyway, great track man good to see there are some out there as eager as I am to get some epic maps thrown out there early. Great banks, great turns, great look, can't think of a downside just yet. I guess I'll play it and see if anything changes. For now, 5/5 man nice work!

    this is the best track ive seen on sandbox. when i played on it the juicy effect looked cool with the effect it had on the kill balls. the track and turns are smoothly interlocked. using the flags as a turn by the start is very unique. great job. this should be featured.

    This is a really good track but the kill balls are too bright and ruin it.

    So the main aesthetic of the map ruins it. Yeah right. The blinding light is supposed to make you feel like you are on an insane carnival ride. If they're so annoying that you have to complain, remove them in forge. :|
