    Creator: laxman91

    Map:
    Sandbox

    Difficulty: Medium

    Gametype: RACETRACKS

    Description: My first track on Sandbox. This track has a very long, smooth bank flowing under a big dropping hill. It is fully bordered and uncheatable making it suitable for tournaments. Also, here are a few sharp turns including a long flat turn that swings around from under the bridge to its start.

    Looks like a good race map reminds me of the ones you see in amusement parks. Im also glad you did something original as most race maps are made in the air. Overall looks like it has good design good job ill dl and tell you more.

    This looks awesome, i love the bridge and the way its in such a small space, it kind of reminds me of a go-kart track. One concern is the corners look very sharp but im sure thats fine when you play it. You have a download from me 9/10 because it looks quite short and the corners look a bit sharp but otherwise good job.

    This looks really neat, the turns seemed to be forged well and the layout is pretty original. It's nice to have a map that isn't all huge turns and banks in the air. Good job :)

    4.7/5

    This is beautiful. The layout is great and the track is so smooth and good to drive on. You made this so well. It doesn't look like you have this set up for the RACETRACKS gametype on this. Put that on this and you've got a download from me. I actually might download this as is. One of the best racetracks I've seen for a while. Good job.

    After playing i'm sticking to the things i said in my first comment, the maps corners, especially the ones before the bridge, after thebridge and after the finish line are very tight and it is difficult to get around without crashing or slowing down, but this is a good thing because it separates the good racers from the ones that hold down forward the whole time and tend not to fall off.This track needs skill towin and ilike that. Well done, and a resounding 10/10

    And SVV33T SAUC3 wtf it does work with RACETRACKS, you obviously didn't play it.

    that is very odd, i dont know how or why it would be on here before i joined.

    im glad you see it in my view, the purpose of my tracks are for tournament racing and of coarse just for fun. I normally don't assist my tracks much purposely. I expect racers to be able to slow down and not rely on assisted turns.

    I hate goose maps, but this one stood out because I noticed how so smooth the track is even though it twists and turns in multiple ways. Though a little short, I just can't get over the flawless turns. Good job

    How come half the reviews say a lot of good things, yet lack an explanation of what is bad about it and still give something like 4/5?

    go ahead and use it, that is what it is for.

    There are some minor, minor problems. But there is nothing really bad about it in my eyes. All I would say is that it is a little bumpy on the bridge right as you reach the drop. And if someone doesn't like tracks that don't use a lot of assisting, this may not be the track your looking for.

    Wow, it looks like you have spent a great deal of time and effort creating this map. Everything looks very smooth and clean, and thats what you want to see in a racetrack. The giant hill over the whole track is very nice and well suited for this map, a definite DL from me.
