Back Burner
By: ShaddoBlade

Recommended Racers: 2-8
Recommended Gametypes: Racetracks, Battle Tracks

You can hear your Mongoose revving, see the course stretching out in front like a giant, coiled snake and you've got this alarming burning sensation. Where are you? Well, you’re probably about to race on Back Burner, one of the newest racetracks to be released. This serpentine track has numerous banked turns and hairpin corners, all compactly built into a small area. Although it doesn't have any particular aesthetic theme, Back Burner is expertly crafted and as smooth as snakeskin. The course is also perfect for battling it out on the back of your mongoose using the battletracks variant. With so many twists and turns in a small area there are bound to be unique angles of attack. Like many courses being made these days it is not the easiest to race on - blind corners, sweeping turns and sudden drops will keep even the most experienced racers on their toes. But competition aside this map is just plain fun to race on and even players who aren't fans of racing should give it a shot. What more can be said? Get out there are set some new lap records. Oh, and get that burning sensation checked out. It can't be good for you.

First and this was one of the first really good sandbox race tracks. So glad it was featured! The twists, turns, and smoothness just make this map blind my eyes!

This racetrack proved to all of us that it is one of the best in the category.
When I first drove my mongoose in here, I was amazed at how smooth and continuous my driving was.

Definitely deserved it. Congrats, Shaddo.

yeeeeeeehaw finally! This is definitely the best Race map ever in my opinion. I kind of waited for this all the time. I think I already played like 100 games on it :P.

It is fast. It is fun. It never gets boring. You can easily overtake others if you are a good driver. It is smooth.
*Dizzy sound*

And now, since I have xbl live gold back, I can play a bit more on the best Race map evar.

And now for the more serious part. After collecting a lot of experiences on this map, I can say that it is almost perfect. The path the track is going is perfect for battle snipes, You have the right amount of "cover" and enough places to shoot/be shot. There are curves, long, straight parts. Only the last curve makes me think every time: Did he use all objects? (Its a bit too tight.)

It's an amazing track really, and it set the bar for all sandbox race maps to come. It showed what you can do on sandbox with a race maps. With all the twists and turns and speed, you'll never get tired of this one. Definitely deserved this, congratulations.

really nice design and aesthetics, although a bit simple (if you laid it flat)

Congrats on the feature Shadoo. You earned it.. Great interlocking and unpredictable twists & turns. I like this and Cherry Kiss as well. Great work. How is your new track coming? I am working on a new track in the skybubble. I just wish I had more time to forge like I use to, lol.. Nice job.

Wow, this is great. Looks like a pretty difficult track. I'm glad to see more race maps being featured now, because we need more variety on the front page.
