Yazoo Vally Run by Psyco

Track - Yazoo Vally Run
Maker - Psyco
Genre - Circuit

Psyco is playing with us now. One smooth banked corner after another, this track is fun easy driving. The track sports the wide dirt road of the excavation, and the sparsely modelled course rolls over a terrain that's conveniently laid out to accommodate the circuit. Off-line, he's finally got the computer trucks to finish the race; on-line this one can handle a full room of players. The name is great and although we could have probably lived without the road kill remains of an in-joke rooted in his former team, psyco has out-done himself - this is his best track to date.

THis track is just awsome. Very simple, easy, and yet it has about 2 corners that can make u do a mistake u will never recover the time u lost. LOL, this track is kinda of a must-have. It is for me. Everytime i play it, it keeps me thinking, how boring my tracks are, and how awsome the others are that i have (about 90 addon races). Soooo, this track inspired me,gonna release another one soon that is going to be FUN. trust me, please

This is a great/challenging track worthy of tournament competition.. the only drawback that i can see are those god awful billboards.

Great track Psyco... what I want to know is, how do ya get those nice smoothly banked curves? I tend to create a layout for the road, then add the terrain and then try to fit the 2 together with LOTS of terrain editing!!! Yours seems effortless - that is a compliment BTW - as does Mal's RockRidge, is there a secret you guys ain't telling me???

The track itself is fun, challenging and don't suck up all yer computer resources.. in other words, ideal for both off line and on line play. I liked the cat in the road (hmmm... I won't expand on that) but I think it would've added a little if you gave him some weight and therefore become more "menacing"?
Maybe your next track could have a "revenge of the roadkill" theme?

This track has to be one of my favourites. It rocks

.

As Phineus put it, fun easy driving. It's a really enjoyable track.

The scenery is excellent, no lag. Though maybe you could get rid of the billboards, and I'm sorry, but I am very fond of cats

I like the track.

Be fast, be good, your set.

Nice to see the "Review Process" seems to works.

You mean its still on the AXE Top 10? Those guys must be slipping hehe.

All I can say is its a very cool track and people are still running it, and as long as they do it'll be there ... or it might get moved to the Classic 10 one day.

btw. I had a hard time keeping Unamed and Untamed off that list ....

You might have noticed that there are now links from the AXE Top 10 Tracks to the track entries in this track discussion board. I plan to (someday) link all the tracks in the Cool Track List to this board too..

Keep up the good work, MTMG ... You guys ROCK...
