RACE 2/12 (series)

*NOTE: THIS IS A NASCAR TRACK. IF YOU DONT LIKE GOING IN CIRCLES/OVALS DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER.*

This track is raced after it passes the 3 word test:
Competitive (Is it raceable?)
Equal (If youre passing, are both cars able to race without a problem?)
Safe (No way out of the track, no holes/bumps to mess up racing badly)

Sorry about the bad names. These were named to be system link races, not online.

The Forge 400 was designed to be a slow turn-fast straightaway track. Easily the least-asthetic map ive made, it may look simple, but it is one of the most exciting and on-the-edge racing tracks on the circuit. The corners are so flat and so sharp, that you have to be perfect around each one, or you will lose positions fast. On occasion, you will have some people dive bombing the corners to gain a spot or two, but when you see it, just turn on the brakes, let 'em slide into the wall and just drive on by.

Long straights, flat sharp corners, great racing.

First lap, and were already having problems..

Look how spread out they are on the straightaways, Red thinks he has a big lead..

Now they all bunch up in the corners, no more big lead.

Ill tell you one thing, the leader is in this pic.. and its not Red.

Blue wins by a commanding margin.

Hints/Secrets:
1. To get the fastest corners, start near the wall, turn, and end up near the wall.
2. If your friend goes to divebomb you: get on the brakes, and let him slide into the wall.
3. The middle of the track is the best place in the corners, because it doesnt make you too slow, or too long.
4. Try not to hit the inside walls, youre going really slow around the corners, if you hit them, it will slow you down tremendously.
**5. Secret to turning: Right before you go to turn, take your finger off the thumbstick and put it back on as fast as you can (faster than you can blink). The mongoose will slow just enough to make the turn smooth and faster than your opponents.
