Description: So cruising through the forums i come across Datastunt's Stunt Track Contest and so I thought... this contest would be an opportune time to finally build a track around a barrel roll jump i have been perfecting over the last two months. And it's not even just one barrel roll but two! And trust me when i say they work 99.99% of the time! I dare anybody to try and have an unsuccessful landing and show me proof (you can't drive through backwards ). I have been racing in Halo since the start of racing when Halo 3 came out and the one stunt I have never seen an effective and consistent version of is a barrel roll and so I took it onto myself to finally create a perfect barrel roll! (let me know if I'm mistaken and there has been one created already that works 99% of the time!) And so now i present to you Thunder Barrel! Not only is this a stunt track but it also includes a water slide you drive through one way and back through the other! an underwater tunnels and a huge jump! No matter what type of racetrack you prefer I guarantee you will love this track it features parts of stunt tracks, roller coasters and double wide tracks. I hope you have as much fun racing on this track as i had building it!

What inspired your creation? My inspiration to create this map has been by the lack of stunt maps I have seen in Halo Reach. I also have been inspired by the lack of a consistent barrel roll stunt and wanting to create the first consistent barrel roll. I have also note seen any front flips in Halo racing either (Wink Wink).

How long did it take to create? I have spent an hour or two a day for the last month and before that I have occasionaly worked on making a barrel roll every now and then. Overall I'd guess around 30 hours.

What aspect took the longest to get right? Oddly enough the most challenging part was not the barrel roll but trying to create a consistent entrance into the water slide backwards because it is harder than it looks 0.o. However the runner ups are definitely creating consistent jumps and landings for the stunts.
