Good job with the track, like the roughness but i think it would be better for everyone if hardpack tracks has real ruts instead of berms :P
It would be more realistic, fun and would force riders to go a little slower to corners and aim to the rut=less falloffs=more happy ppl.

Took a couple screenshot to show what i mean

And should be a little more like this is think. not as deep tho because its a hardpack

This corner is pretty much what i mean :)

IMO the track isn't very good. A lot of the ruts start at the exit of the corner which pretty much makes them useless as you have to make the turn before you ever get into a rut which is not realistic. Also a lot of the turns have an inside line or two, and then an outside berm but anywhere in between is basically no mans land and there's no reason to ever ride there. I know not every corner is like that some are built very well. I just think it takes away from the fun, it's definitely still fun just think those things would really help. Thanks for putting in the effort, though! Definitely appreciate it.

I appreciate the feedback I get guys. Also when I'm replying to your posts, I'm not saying you're wrong and I'm right, I just want to explain my idea behind the creations. The valid feedback I get is welcome and evaluated :)

This is something I think a lot about too, how to do this. To me, I see it like this:

1. You have ruts you can rail.
2. You have ruts that you cannot rail.
(more or less)

The #1 is really simple, just make the ground "normal" (up from the ground) and lower the inside a little. Done! However to make number #2 is a completely different story. One of the things making a turn (not a rut) less railable is that you won't immediately enter a rut to rail. You have to slow down a bit, aim and then perhaps open it up banking on the rut, or just riding it. You can also add bumps in it, forcing the rider to have to be careful. The last one is that you can "only" dig the ruts into the ground, this CAN result in railable ruts, but if you do this and then don't cut into the inside, you'll have deep ruts you cannot lean in, which is no fun to most people since you'll only "slide out" in the rut. I'm trying to mix them a bit, depending on where it is.

Why there is some open no mans land is because it is in real life. Of course it isn't always like that, but most times there aren't 7 ruts in a turn leaving no space flat (when I've ridden at least) but rather a few major lines people use. Also I hate when tracks only locks you in ruts, the bigger, the worse to me. Southwick 2016 was in my mind a bit like that for sim. In real life, there doesn't appear to be very many ruts, but even if there are, it's sand so you can just blast over them in any direction you want, Tomac made that clear :) Where as in sim (I've played the track very little, so I may very well be wrong) both watching the stream and riding it, it felt like it had 2 major lines around the track, not leaving you with the option to square a turn up or block someone off. If you have a bit of open turn, both can you avoid downed riders as well as you do have the option to run someone wide and steal their line. At least that is how I've felt it, I'd like to know what you guys think of it :)
