    Wow just wow. You basically just put my dream of a race map and created it. What I like the most in race maps are the smooth turns that are slightly slanted and originality. Your map has both of these factors and that's why I like it. Also I like your interlocking and geomerging on this map. The starting line is what I mean by nice geomerging btw, and I dont think any other race map has had their starting point where you put it.

    Nice job. Ill try to get to testing this later on.

    Very good race track. I like how you used the same object till you ran out of it. Amazing interlocking and geomerging double boxes in the beginning, ver ynice :]

    dude just a heads up. please dont give a rating without actually playing it first.

    this map is maybe the cleanest race map ive ever seen on foundry. its not the most original tho except for the elevator which looks sweet, but there isn't a main feature of the track that sticks out cuz ur whole map is good, but just a thought for u.

    nice map

    Looks unbelievable. the geomerging is smooth and the interlocking is flawless. What I don't get is why the download link doesnt work...

    As others said b4, this is one of the smoothest looking racetracks of its time, or day, blah blah. I luv how you used one object at a time to make it look "clean", and your first few box merges look very awesome indeed.

    My only problem with this is, and you probably ran out of objects, but it kinda looks like a coaster, roller coaster, you know? I say this because you don't really have it walled off, and if you fall off you are screwed. Still, a definite DL from me, and a pat on teh back. Unpedoently (<--Maybe, could be a meme?!!1)

    I have to say that you are an amazing geomerger and interlocker. An amazing forger in short. Definite home on my HDD and 5/5.

    EDIT:
    It seems that your link is down. Please fix it or I will starve to death out of hunger for this map.

    Wow this looks amazing. The only problem I see right now is that the fence walls might be too slanted for going straigt... I'll test this tomorrow and then rate it =)

    holy crap. you really make nice geomerging...the only thing is like youtuber said, that the track isnt really blocked off, also it is missing some scenery to make it look nice, i live the whole design, now just work on the easy part, the details.great map

    I'm not into racing maps, but I will say that this is definitely one of the cleanest interlocked/geomerged maps I've ever stumbled upon. Not one box or wall looks out of place, you really have mastered the art.

    Looks very nice, not original whatsoever i might add though. It is a very excellently made map, with the interlox and geomergezz, but this design has been done over and over again. The elevator is pretty cool though, and it still is nicely made, so 5/5 for aethetics but only 3/5 for originality.

    dang man, youve improved alot! i remember like half a month ago when you released your other race map, and compared to this, that one looks like chewed up negleted runover piles of poorly backed pancake material. nice interlockin, and i bet Jeef made the double box start. hes such a show off, lol. i like alot of this, but dont start another untill sandbox, itll be better there.

    Yeah dude I would have loved to add in some scenery, but my budget glitch broke right at the very end of the map, so I was pretty much screwed. Another thing, the reason there is not much bordering is because it is designed for Battle Lasers, which requires not many borders so it allows people to shoot easier without too much cover while racing :) It's definitly cheatproof though.

    Actually, with the speed you get while racing, the fence walls are perfect. Unless you really slow down the fence walls aren't too steep, even though they really look like they are :p
