[inside]

Teeds has said pretty much everything about the subject and I just want to say that very good (and smart) riders will occasionaly lean towards the inside of the turn when it's doable and necessary.

Ryan Villopoto is a great example of that (especially on fast flat corner exits like the first pic) and I think it's very much one of the reasons of his success and great corner speed.

In real life as a spectator, I've also seen Chad Reed do that in supercross back in 2004. Pretty much the only rider of the field to do it, he crushed it and won all the races of the night.

Hey guys (I'm Asdrael's brother).

To Mace: regarding the textures of the track, I tested earlier versions with more detailed textures. To be honest it was making my framerate go down (more than any other track ever) so I asked Asdrael if it was possible to get better framerate and they did a great job with that. I think this concern was legitimate because my PC is more or less a below average gaming PC (it was very high-end... 6 years ago) and we were sure other people were also going to run into problems.  The textures don't look any worse now and if anything, the track looks actually much better because since that early version TFC has added trees and everything.

To TFC: I never got to thank you "in person" so really, congratulations on this track, awesome job, I had fun testing it from the start and it kept getting better and better

About the triples being small: to be honest, if you go see a supercross race in real life, the triples are big but not huge. 2nd gear on a 450 IRL in the US. Some motocross jumps are much much bigger!

[A few beginner tips]

A few beginner tips on this track (I'm Asdrael's brother, helped testing the track). I almost never play MXB but was able to quickly get down to 1'03 laps with these tips:
- Suspension settings are important. A harder fork helps. Generally you want a stiff bike.
- for the whoops, make sure you're almost perfectly straight, I use 2nd gear on a 250 2 stroke, 3/4 throttle, lean all the way back. Don't change direction.
- for the rythym section, the "easy line" I use is to absorb the first bump and then do 2-2-2-2-2. Very easy to do lap after lap without crashing.
- generally speaking, once you start a rythym section, you don't want to turn at all during the whole section, and if you absolutely have to, be careful with it

Have fun
