Greetings and salutations all! Below I have included my Devil's Playground GP which I have tweaked quite a bit since its first version as well as my first draft of Shiitake Raceway. Please race them both and provide any criticism right back here! Devil's Playground GP

thefroc: You did play the Devil's Playground. I decided to make the Shiitake Raceway less technical because there are so many preexisting obstacles already which adds to the difficulty. The first car park is a doozy I will admit. Having to cross the embankment twice and sudden downhill towards the hairpin are very tricky. I am glad you liked them!

The Shiitake Raceway has since been renamed Red Arremer Raceway, and has gone over a major overhaul. Go test the track and report on how you like the changes!

So today I add another creation to my billfold. This track is a bit shorter but has some very tricky bits in it!

I swear I am done making tracks for a while, but I just had a lot of ideas come to me when I find an interesting spot in free roam. This another fledgling creation that needs some love, I must have messed with the props a dozen times before I think I found the sweet spot with them. I will let you all be the judge of that though. Please give it a try when you have some time.

Added the lot. It's 4am, I've been up all night editing my own tracks so I'll check yours out tomorrow parksguard. I've already tried the Devil's Playground and Gymkhata one, they're pretty cool, especially the compact one. I'll give full thoughts tomorrow. |

You weren't joking about the obstacles and poles in the description for Red Arremer Racing. My only real criticism for that is there's probably too many, and that includes props such as the barriers. In my opinion you only need a few to get the basic message of the track layout across, unless they are used to block off a certain line. Otherwise it's a pretty cool race track.
Same with Casino Royale which I love by the way. Great layout, but I think there's too many props. A simple barrier and better checkpoint placement would make it far more intuitive. Checkpoints 3/4/5 when you get onto the slipway are quite confusing at first, and too close together to react when travelling at speed. Removing 3 but keeping 4 will make it much easier for drivers to see what's ahead.
Some of the barriers are unnecessary, such as the ones at checkpoint 24. If someone makes a mistake there it's better they fly off into the pond than crash back into the pack. It punishes the one who makes the mistake and it won't include everyone else.
