Great new race map idea!! I'm really pleased with the premise here, it's pretty new as far as I can tell. I like that you visited a map by another person and were inspired to take the idea to another level. It's very well put together and makes for a perfectly serviceable racetrack.

At the same time, I see much potential for some new map ideas (I'm not saying that your map needs improvement.) Some of the more creative maps have been recreations of classic games from the NES/SNES erea. Most race tracks call to mind Mario Cart. Duck Hunt has been a huge success. There have been others, of course. As I was flying through your map in a sinlgle-player run-through, I got the distinct impression that I was playing Pilot Wings (SNES classic). What if one (I don't know who) were to take this type of flight map and make a single-player challenge course? With the right combination of precision and imagination, I can see something very interesting taking shape.

Regardless of all that, this is a great map, I'm glad to see a new type of racetrack pulled off so well.

Thanks for the feedback. If you liked this map idea, i am currently about half way through making a new, more balanced and more complex version with more asthetic design. if you, or anyone else wants to help test the map when it is nearly finished, it should be soon ish, just send me a message on here or XBL.

As i have said, i am currently half way through making a new map, not a v2 but another banshee track in the same style. it will be longer, funner and have more turns.

It's original and all, but with the VIP goto spots, isn't the gameplay flawed? With Banshees there's no restriction to go forward. And if you're in last place, you can cut the course so you can get to a future objective. Is that how it's supposed to work out?

Can YOU beat it???

1. That's intentional, it gives everyone a chance.
2. Please comment on Banshee Tango, it is the newer map of this style i made.
