Was it just me, or was the far left (inside) lane always the slowest regardless of weight?

Yes, it is. With some tweaking and testing, I believe I've evened things out better.

I'm surprised more people aren't mentioning the audio. It was messed up on the track introduction video last week, too. Everything alright over there? I'd give feedback on the track itself, but I don't think I can say much that hasn't already been said. Looking forward to the future!

What do you mean when you say it is messed up? Does the intro music sound bad? Does the commentary sound like the problem? Any specifics would be most helpful.

Many tweaks to come, for sure, but this is gonna be a fun track! Some notes: All the cars are coming out of the start up to that first bump _really_ slow. Plans for that? There's definitely not enough momentum going into the jump. The half-pipe is a super cool feature! Lastly, I don't think I'd let my child ride on any ride being operated (or even _described,_ for that matter) by Billy.

Im gonna angle the startgate to help with the initial acceleration. These Volvos did struggle with the jump, whereas the vast majority of the entries should do much better.

When I added the rocks and tree stumps at the top section, it slowed down lane 1 more than I anticipated. Again, thank you. This will be the first of a gazillion tweaks to improve the action. I'm sure of it!
