Divine Raceway

I thought you might all love this. I certainly do, I'd probably place a bet that it might win best track ever on MyTracks, as it's so good - and retro, harking back to the good old days, when designers were designers. It's definately better than anything Rockmunky has ever produced, he's rubbish - I could eat him for breakfast at Track Design, eh Rich?

Anyway, to save you all from premature climax;



I think you'll all agree, that this is a sexy track. I almost fainted in awe. I like the angular nature of it. Let me give you a quick run around the lap;

Turn 1: After along burst down from the fourth turn, it's heavy on the brakes - and as the track is pretty much, fully flat - and narrow, it would be single file through here, not alowing for much excitement or overtaking.

Turn 2: Pretty much the same.

Turn 3: Pretty much the same.

Turn 4: Pretty much the same, but watch out - because on rainy days, there isn't any drainage here. Mind you, rain shouldn't be a problem, because to elimate any potential excitement - I decided to put a roof over it.

Yeah Baby. I am God.

How rubbish can you get? It's a flaming square, for crying out loud! And what the heck is Plop Curve meant to mean? Is it anything to do with toilets?! Hope not!

Common, its not that bad, it reminds me of a street track in Austraia that is no longer used.

How dare you insult a genius?

This track really shouldn't be taken seriously.

I'm afraid, it's very much a private joke between me and Rockmunky, to quash any confusion. And it is a protest.

Oh, and the Plop curve is named after the feeling I get, when I look at the designs, another designer I've seen produces.

Mods, you may as well close this - I've made my point (unclear to everyone I appreciate) to the nessecary people, and I'm pleased with the result.

Yes closing it would be a great idea, perhaps you would of been better keeping your 'private' joke private, as nobody else here quite see's what your protesting over. Although to me it seems you are taking the micky out of people who enjoy designing new tracks and discussing it with like minded people.

LOL! This looks like some silly piece of modern art.
But somehow it reminded me of Alemannenring at Singen that DTM touring cars used to race on until some time in the 1990s. Just the hairpin is missing.

Then, I'm not really sure what you are protesting against.

Oh. My. God.

Don't take me too seriously, I've said it's a private joke, once, maybe twice before already.

Worst. Track. Ever. But a bold move nonetheless. I like it.
