    DOWNLOAD MAP / DOWNLOAD GAMETYPE

    Viper is my first try at a racetrack ever. It starts off at the top of the large dune on on the base level of Sandbox, and ends by dropping you off outside the regular boundries. The guardians on the map have been blocked off and the crypt hole has been plugged with a cross(I'm a Christian-deal with it). There are 8 mongeese and set up for 16 people. There are two main U-turns on the map, one at the first part and one after the wood bridge. There is a large banked turn that crosses over most of the map at the end. You must climb up the dune to rejoin the track to start a new lap once you cross the finish line(just follow the lights). I wanted to make a spot where it was a little more free-form than the usual "roller coaster style maps" You really need to look at the pictures to fully understand what exactly it looks like.

    Holy crap thats pretty instense for a first racetrack. I love all the great turns praticularly the first. Seems to be very smooth and fun. The only thing that might confuse people is when you must foll ow the lights to get back onto the track.

    9.5/10 for your first racetrack.

    This is the best middle Sandbox race track I have ever seen. It really incorperates the dunes and looks for a very interesting race. I'll deffently download this!

    I like the Cross in the middle.

    Anyways, I like the overall track, how smooth it looks and how intricate it is. How do you people make these things without giving yourselves cancer? Lol

    5/5

    Wow, awesome, AWESOME job. This looks aesthetically and merged to perfection. Wow and the uniqueness just makes it a whole lot better. I'd love to see what else you got, but great job on your first map. 9/10.

    This is an amazing map, It really looks like you took your time. Although, the finish when your drive on the canvas is pretty bad, I imagine you ran out of materials

    The thing in the center is a cross. I had a little budget left, so i just built a cross, since im a christian.

    I don't have enough budget left to make it more enclosed, but it is cheat-proof.

    I did run out of materials, but i had originally planned that being there to spice things up a bit. The drive up that part is actually very smooth, which is why i chose that section.
