Mankato Speedway

Features for this track include three styles of race courses on the same track, in separate pods. The Drag racing course is held on the infield of the track. It's a quick run over the first set of cars, slam the throttle down through no-mans-land, and launch over the final set. The U-turn course is inspired from a show I saw long ago (Tuff Traxx I believe) with hosts Army Armstrong and Gary Leek at Toledo Ohio. You start halfway down the front and back stretch. Come off the line, through the turn, over the first sets of cars, fly through no-mans-land, and sky it out over the last set through the infield. Finally, the figure 8 course is set on the figure 8 circuit. The turns are tight and banked, making this to be a true driver's course, hopefully featuring close, exciting races. Good turning ability, throttle control, and patience are key in getting around this track. The middle part of the figure 8, also known as the intersection features numerous junked cars which you'll fly over.
