    Ladies and gentlemen I give you Paramount! This insane track consists of very smooth interlocking, spirals, twists and more! Paramount was 25 hours in the making and I think it paid off. A money glitch was needed to make this track as well as the object limit being reached. The track was tested for 2 hours to look for cheatable spots so dont worry it is 100% cheat proof, destination and all. There is not much more I can say other than enjoy so I give you Paramount!

    This looks like a very neat racing map. I see that you took full advantage of all the items in Sandbox, and it looks as if it worked out very well. I love all the banking turns packed real tight. I might download when I get my Xbox Back. Good Map. Keep Forging

    1st post!

    WOW... I'm not into racing maps but his looks extremly good!
    I just have one question, is there a way for people who fall off to get back to the track? I can't tell from your pics...

    Virtually any racemap made by a bearer of the AnF clan name is an outstanding display of forging techniques and creativity. This map is no exception.

    The forging looks incredibly clean and the layout has me jumping in me seat, unable to wait until i can go race it. You created angles and curves that are incredible in the scope of how long they must have taken to forge and how beautifully smooth they appear to be.

    Overall, it looks like an outstanding map that should be quite fun and exciting to race on. 6/5

    This is the best racetrack on sandbox I have seen yet and it looks awesome, is there a specific gametype to be used though? Very smooth interlocking and not much flat surfaces which is good for a true (good) race map

    Ambitious, aren't you?
    When i saw the map overview, i'm like "Holy ****, that looks good." And it is. No longer is a race maker confined to grubby old foundry, now they have the sandy air of Sandbox to play in!

    I love the spirals, and brilliant turns. Congrats on a good map :)

    This track is amazing, it looks epically smooth, and also the track looks quite long. Well done Knight, but I think the map might be cheatable, I'll DL and if it is cheatable I'll post how. But for the mo, well done.

    Dude that makes me feel so good to see you say "it makes me proud to have you as a clan leader" That is insanely nice. And for those other people who dont read the description, yes it is 100% cheat proof.

    Why didn't you make this in the skybubble?

    Anyways, the track looks amazing. All the spirals and turns look so smooth and very race-able. I'ma definitely DL this. Great job.

    Yeah, Skybubble would have been a better choice, but I feel horrible saying that right now because it turned out amazing. This should be the first featured race map on Sandbox, or the Do_og. 5/5, because you somehow made a perfect map.

    Amazing map i have to say but my friend pointed out that if you fall off there is no way to get back onto the track, we were in forge so we just flew back up, but he suggested a teleporter =p

    This reminds me of Quasar. I imagine it would be great for Battle MOB and Lasers. Very smooth turns. I only have 2 suggestions for this. The ending turn should use sheild doors and there should be at leat one teleporter on the floor of the map to help noobs that fall off back on. I also noticed that the mongooses are not set to instant respawn, which would be problematic for a large amount of racers. 4.9/5

    This is so extreme.
    Most of the race maps i've played are real mellow, but this is like a rollercoaster. And it's smooth as butter.

    CRAZIEST RACE MAP EVER!!!!!!
    5/5*

    Extremely well done map but why not in the sky bubble I wonder? I love all those banks and twists and turns and layers. The beauty blinds my eyes. 6/5

    First let me start by saying that the map looks absolutely phenomenal. Forging is pristine, and its all pretty smooth.

    I do have to say, though, that after actually driving on this, i was unfortunately pretty disappointed. The track is in dire need of some shield doors in several spots. too much friction from walls on tight turns, causing big traffic jams. Also, Im a firm believer that if you can fall off on a racetrack, you should either fall to one of 2 places. Either back onto the track itself at a previous point, or to your death. Instead, there are a couple spots that are pretty easy to fall off at, especially with multiple people racing at once, where you would just have to trek back around to the other side, then cross the track yourself by foot.

    You've definitely proven you can be an awesome race map forger, but I think this track is unfortunately pretty impractical. Im looking forward to seeing what you cook up next, though.
