Cold Bank

Must use the RaceTracks gametype.

This track features a big banked turn, a huge jump, a starting gate, a viewing platform, a penalty place and lots of assisted turns in the tight passageways. It is completely uncheatable. It works best with smaller groups of racers but there are 8 mongooses so feel free to have larger races. People who have played it say it is the best Cold Storage track yet.

It is advised that you drive some parts slowly or you will crash.

Full Description:
The race starts on the side of the big room opposite the light. 8 mongooses are parked there and you spawn right next to them. After 20 seconds a ramp spawns and you drive through the 2 doors to the other side of the big room. There are also starting lights. When you are at the other side, you go right up the small ramp and into the passageways. There is a grav lift assisted turn to help you take the turn in the first room. You then go out through the other hallway and come out by the banked turn. The bank is mostly double wide and has 2 grav lifts to help guide you. This is a great place for passing. The bank curves up to the right and into the doorway leading to the sniper room. You drive down the passage, past the window and come into the room where the sniper rifle usually spawns. There is a shield door to help you turn. You then drive out onto the ledge and take a mancannon jump to the other ledge. Shield doors help you land. You then drive down the thin stretch of hallway, around a shield door assisted bend and into the room with the flood in a tube. There is a bridge leading over all the stuff on the ground to make i smoother. You exit out the opposite side, through the objective and come out back in the room under the light. You then go up the small ramp into the passageways and continue.

There are also teleporters floating in the air, custom power ups above doors and arrows on the ground to help show you where to go. Sender nodes in each room send you back to the start. The objective has a grav lift and teleporters around it to prevent cheating. The teleporter sends you to a gap in the roof and will cause confusion. When they figure out where they are, they drop down and take the nearby teleporter back to the start. Telepoeters on the left and right of the start also lead up to a viewing platform. This is located above the mongooses.
