Awesome job dudes.

The one part that I'm not sure about: The whoops, and the entry to the whoops. I can't remember the entry to the whoops being so deep. Also, I thought there were more whoops than that

But yeah, sick job guys. Despite how gnarly the ruts are, they are surprisingly rideable

Definitely surprised me here. It looked great, and all your tracks have, but I really wasn't sure how it would ride because I really had a hard time having fun on your others. Maybe it's due to the layout, or the fact I've been playing a crap load of MXS and am getting better, or maybe you changed up your ruts a bit, but I definitely got hooked on this track.

What I liked.

The ruts! SOOOO many lines, very rideable for the most part (and user error when they don't work), yet they are scaled realistically. I think this is where I like this track better than the others. There are simply more ruts and they seem more ride-able. They allow you to keep speed instead of forcing you to slow down I guess.

Clean and crisp. As always, everything is shaped so nicely. Very "real" feeling.

Decals, traction, everything seemed to work together nicely.

Great roughness.

What I personally wasn't a huge fan of.

The sharpness of some of the ruts. It seems they got nearly vertical in places and would cause the bike to "hop" in the ruts. A bit jaggy. I know the challenges behind this, and finding that right balance of smoothness, yet hardness is definitely really tough - but definitely caused me some pain.

The jumps, mainly the downhill split section felt "blah". I thoguth watching the race the jumps looked fairly lippy, yet I never got any pop off yours. I definitely know that's part of having a 1:1 scale track that some times things don't feel as "epic" but that area stood out to me.

The rut on the outside before the finish. Just seems broken and out of place on that bank.

I like it, it's a lot of fun for sure.

Thanks alls, Yeah you're right, in the mxdn after the uphil, it was a direct right turn and 2 more waves, that's why the track was too short. But as it's not a good thing irl, we keept the "s" turn before waves, like last year.

most realistic track ive ridden on. Getting into car racing simulator territory for its accuracy and feeling of imersion. My question is what compression and rebound settings did you use to test this track?, im only asking because to get a clean lap in, i have to drastically tweak things on a completely different scale than on other tracks.

Haggqvist is riding stock suspension, but i don't, i was riding nearly stock but with a low rider mass, and i put it to .50 to ride the track. If you are already at 0.50, try to put stocks suspension and try to tweak rider positions settings
