A few years ago many people complained that there were too many rumbles, they were fast and easy to make, it took no skill to drive them, and that rumblers were "ruining" mtm. Today, however, I think many rumbles are brilliant and stunning works of art, and that it's obvious, to anybody who looks at them, there has been a ton of work put into them and that many of them show amazing creativity.
Okay, fast forward a couple years and we hear similar talk about drag tracks. But, since 18 of the last 20 track uploads have been drags, I thought I'd step up and say a word about the most recent. And I tell ya, DaveTheSmasher is doing a great job to make, not only drag tracks, but total racing environments that incorporate the whole of the arena venue and sometimes the surrounding areas. Have a look at some of these beauties.

I'm glad to see the drag track guys feeling more comfortable about using the site, and I think anybody, even if drags are not your preferred racing style of game play, I think anybody can recognize just how much time and effort Dave has been putting into his work. Obviously time well spent because these look great!
Keep up the nice job, Mr. Smasher.
