Track: http://sunrise.tm-exchange.com/main.aspx?action=trackshow&id=262998#auto
Reviewer: EtherForce
We start off greeted by an intro with a top view of the track and a subliminal message (heh heh), then we get a view inside the loops which is too dark to see anything, but this camera angle looks cool when it makes it's way out of the 'indoor loops', then it goes up above the track and spins weeeee!
When you begin racing you're told to do a press-forward and you can get by just pressing forward (which makes you do a flip btw), but if you don't want to lose a lot of time you'll have to steer to the left or right a little before the first ramp, but if you go too far or not far enough to the left or right you'll find yourself hitting a street light or you'll go too far off-track to continue. This part is a good alternative to the traditional press-forward in which you simply, well, press forward.

Then we take an easy turn to the right and go up a ramp which you'll want to slow down on or you'll find yourself hitting the green arrows at the end of the jump and falling off the track.

Next we turn right and boost into the 'indoor loops,' this part of the track is pretty fun as the first loop consists of a bunch of jumps, although we may sometimes not hit the landing right, lose a lot of speed and fall to a random part of this big structure. We come down and go through a checkpoint, then are boosted up to a much smaller loop and finally make our way out of the 'indoor loops.' Be careful on your way out, however, as there is a right turn which is hard to tell which way you need to go, there should have been a sign indicating to turn right.

After we turn out of the 'indoor loops,' we do a quick drop then go through a big loop.

We then jump and go through a checkpoint, then do a U-turn and drop down a ramp. Next is a bunch of sharp turns typical to the Bay environment, then finally we reach the last stretch and head through the finish line.

The outro is nice until halfway through when you get a simple behind-the-car view for the rest of the track.

Final Summary
This is a nice little track good for beginners and experts alike. It could use some improvements, especially to the 'indoor loops' which you may find yourself crashing in, but overall it's a fun track worth playing over a few times.Posts: 201 -

I agree, that's a very good review.
Personally, I would have wished some statements concerning the decoration.Posts: 138 -
Sorry I never finished the review for this! My computer crashed and I've only just got it going again today.
Would just like to say that I really enjoyed this track, and that the inner loop section can be very technical, trying to get the best speeds through there.
I'd give this track 7/10 for design, but it is very fun to play multiple times to try to break your records!Posts: 8 -
