Ok you say it's a mutation but I don't really see any kind of big changes, can you point me to them? The design (surroundings and that) is all beautiful, but to be honest, I'm afraid the similarity to the F1 track might've costed you some points if it were in the cup. Aside from that, I say it's a damn well designed track! Just my thoughts (:

I said a bit of a mutation, to make the track more simple (otherwise turns would be too stuffed together).

Real first turns: right, left, right, right, right, left, right (7)
My track turns: right, left, right, left, right (5)

The final turns before moving onto the oval [my track] are more of an S section, rather a double hairpin.

The pit entrance is also different. Including some other details...

Anyway, loss of points because it is too similar to the real track? My goal was achieved is making a simple version [track design] of Indy. I see no reason to think this is bad..

Thanks for the comments though. The reason i did not release the track early is because i was / am not 100% happy with it. When i decided to send it, it was too late (i confused the deadline date...).

Yea I didn't mean to offend anyone, sorry if anything implied that. It's a bad-ass track

No hard feelings!

No hard feelings, Etmil.

Anyway, i just feel there is something missing from the track, but i just dunno what it is...... For the next contest, i will try to submit a track i am totally happy with. Perhaps some sort of Default-Photoshop mix track, to make everyone happy.

Time to grab the pen and paper!
