Lakewood - Was prime, I really liked Lakewood.

Mt. Morris - High Point was really slippery and in spots too smooth. I think you should darken up the dirt instead of that hard packed Elsinore looking dirt and make it a tiny bit wider/make the dirt feel a little rougher all together, not rough like Red Bud, but not smooth as a freeway.

Budds Creek - Was good, I liked the layout and everything.

Southwick - I'm slow there but track's fine. Maybe make the sand rollers more taller and bigger rather than a bunch of sharp whoops. Where you actually have to rhythm through the rollers not just go wide open over small long whoops.

Red Bud - Smoother, but sickest jumps.

Washougal - Loved it.

Millville - Loved it.

Unadilla - Good fun track perfect roughness.

Elsinore - Just replicate it like the 2012 track and it'll be heaps better.
Exactly,just would like to see lighter Washougla like some guys said and smoothered and lighter red bud aswell
and for sure only one best wish is if you could make differnt lines, flat tracks out and make ruts from the ground thet would be a dream :D :D :D

Didn't Checkerz make the layout of Lakewood from scratch? Motoboss made Elsinore without a map just fine too. I think the new tracks could get done, especially since all of the other tracks have bases now.

SOOOO MUCH ELEVATION!!!! I cant believe it will be that flat.

redbud will be redone, with the new layout like last year ama race, better visuals so no dark areas and better ruts and roughness, just to make everyone know :)

WOW, good find. Maybe Motoboss is up for that challenge? I bet he'd kill it.

I didn't make Lakewood like that, I had a base from a trackmap from ADHK. I did build Millville 2008 from scratch, but it was a bit easier having been there. Same with the old Loretta's I think?

Anyone have any good reference of the "national" track from Muddy Creek and not just their local track?
Call it a test of manhood... :)
I except..would be nice to get the google earth coordinates if someone has them...
Just want to be sure but Steel City isnt in the nationals this year?

Damn it. I hate these flat tracks. A reason why the GP tracks are cool, natural terrain...

There you go:
40.585563°, -112.377697°

It is pointing the SM track, but it is the same facility. I had the height data when I started the SM track, but I can't find it.... I might have deleted it.

Not to say that all of the AMA tracks are flat (obviously), but the recent additions (elsinore and that one) are flat besides man-made stuff.

WE WANT GLEN HELEN.

Was JUST going to start stiching together the ortho. But if you wanna go for it, go for it. lol. Have you actually started on Lake Elsinore? If not maybe Ill go that route then. And no, steelcity is for sure out.

Stephen, let's chat online tonight! I figured you'd be up to the task of helping.

Motoboss, e-kisses. I love the new style you've been using biulding and am sure the track will be awesome. Let me know when you need some beta help!

eh. I think it will be based on last years national. Thats the common theme. And rightfully so IMO.
