Seemed to me the "pits" in the track were too subtle, which is what allows you to absolutely haul into that wall triple. Would have helped slow down the pace and make things more technical had they been emphasized. From what I've seen in past Daytona tracks, these pits have very walled out front and backs. I like the roughness, though a lot of it is hidden by the decals. The new layout is cool. Not my favorite MXS track, but definitely has a lot of positives too. The varying dirt types and roughness are cool and well done.

Even if you jump it just as a double it launches you pretty far up, so imo the single-double is fastest. Atleast it's the most consistent for me, if you don't count the people ramming me when I slow down for the single and they try to triple :mrgreen:

Thanks jlv for the great track once again!

I can't wait to get home and burn laps! This track is going to be a REAL challenge for me, as I am much better at SX than MX, and usually struggle to keep a good pace on MX tracks! See you guys on the server tonight nonetheless

I've updated the first post with this week's MotoOption prize.

I actually wanted to make it rougher. Since I didn't have much time for testing I decided it was better to release something too smooth vs an unridable minefield.

I hope it isn't faster to triple the wall jump. When I was testing it, my rider would fall off if I hit it fast enough to triple.

Its definitely not faster to triple over, i ran a 1:16.9 in time trial just doing the single-double.

I have the double-single down pretty consistent. what I do is I double then roll over the single throught the inside. somehow there is insane grip on that inside. making it possible to quickly turn, great if you want to make a pass, take the inside and go a little wide to block and take the inside into the double-double/triple-single.

very fun track, and it requires a lot of patience to ride which I like.

I was hoping for a few more ruts to stick in to, especially on the ultra wide corners, but in general the track should still separate the men from the boys. Just looking at the lap times:

Daytona riders 1-40: 8.524 second difference
Atlanta riders 1-40: 2.703 second difference

I saw Phathry single double the wall, must be the fast way. Scrubbing seems nearly impossible there.
