A comment on how you've arranged your sections:

You have a lot of rhythm sections. In essence, there is one long continuous rhythm section that starts near the black rectangle in this picture (assume thats stands of some sort), and continues to the far right side of the track. Just before the whoops, there are 2 short sections, about 4 jumps each, which are borderline rhythm or one line.

This is followed by whoops straight, whoops to double, and setup section to triple.

A more interesting way to arrange your sections is to have broken them up so you have whoops, rhythm, whoops to double, rhythm, triple, rhythm. This would give you track more "harmony", a feeling of variety and balance. It's the contrast of fast to slow, options to no options that gives your track interest. It also makes for better racing.

Also, screwups in the rhythms are going to make for a miserable lap. Mixing your options allows people to recover from mistakes and make decisions about where to take risks to makeup time.

Thank you for the feedback. I know how to build proper rythem sections, I just did this one night and kept on working on it because the jumps are really fun and everything flows. I will keep it in mind for my next track :)

Yeah I was helping you guys with objects before it was trashed and tony gave up on it and I asked if I could take it over and redo the jumps and what not. He said yeah and I redid just about everything, added corners, bumps, jumps, new layout ect.
