I originally made this just for fun for myself, but then I decided it would be a fun track for all skill levels, as far as SX goes, so I thought I would release it. It is a replica. This is a private SX track, that is on the property of the Thompson brothers -Justin, Kyle, Jay, and Cole. Justin and Jay run MXschools.com from this property. It is located in Brigden, ON, Canada. The track is pretty easy, and I think it will be a good track for some of the beginners to learn SX. If you think the track is too 1-lined, you can't blame me, since it is a replica lol. Have fun.
My sister is going out with Kyle Beaton, Nice track.

Not a bad track. The displacement was very well made, and your addition to that quote about Suzuki98 and Wilson is pretty much correct. Here are some thoughts about the track
Textures need major improvement. Very plain at the moment
Some jumps were easily over-jumpable
Ground was a bit 'bitey'
Sun colour needed to be darkened to match the skybox. Rider looked too bright. Either that, or brighten the skybox
You need to learn how to split edges. Alot of your objects had weird shading

thanks DJ the splitting edges is definitely something that gives my shit. The textures were just using your single texture system that was released the other day. At first I didn't plan on releasing the track, but after some feedback from lluks, I figured it would be a track that would appeal to a broader range of players. Also it is more of a timing track than a pin it to win it style. It should make for some nice racing tho. The guys that are skilled at scrubbing, and braking on the faces will be much faster.

The track was fun,but I think you made the ground a little too "sticky."(there was too much traction)Other than that it was great and the whoops were very good also.
