    Description:
    Single and Double Wide Banked Turns, Hairpins, Bridges, and a Shield Door Elevator all merged together in cheatproof matrimony. This is the second map in the "Saturn" series. Youtube Video coming soon! Reply if you want in.
    What inspired your creation? I would have to say all of the new tracks and Bungie Favorites inspired me to make a new one. I still kept on getting friend requests and messages asking me to make another map, but it wasnt enough to inspire me. That all changed after we were on Bungie Favorites. I felt obliged to come back. I took a look back at the website and realized, I am behind. I observed current Halotrack's Maps and took some lessons on advanced merging and next thing I know, it all came back to me. The ideas, the creativity. It was all there. I felt powerful, and quickly began forging.
    How long did it take to create?
    It bare track itself took about 25 hours total.
    The borders, cheatproof features, and everything else took about 8 hours.
    What aspect took the longest to get right?
    The shield door elevator was the longest aspect. The major problem at first was it was too close to the ramp. You could easily slide into it and go out of control. After musing over some simple physics, I changed nearly every piece until I decided to move it foward so you could enter at a straight line. That helped, but it wasnt the fix I was looking for. I adjusted the shield doors until it worked 'perfectly', or so I thought. My friend, DJYINGYANG helped me test it and we figured out it didnt work for elites! I couldnt just leave the Elites hanging, so I fixed it again for about another 3 hours until I got it.

    Holy S**T... I downloaded this map when it first came out on Bungie Favorites... This map is pretty decent although it gets boring if you do more them 10 laps...

    Nice racetrack! I like how all the curves and banks are smooth and curvy, and there doesn't seem to be any bumps so I will check it out. 5/5
