Level 3
A problem with that sharp downslope at the start of Megaton Mine is how the kart slides out to the outer wall as you're making the turn. This is a physics issue with MNR when you put a turn and then have the track descend heavily as you make the turn. I have a turn like this that attempts to replicate the track 'Metropia' from wipEout HD on Lioyd2k4 that isn't published at the moment, and I could never find a way to prevent the sliding outside without slowing down significantly or redesigning the track at that point.

Darkwood Vale
- I've been trying to make a good halloween themed track for a long time (I've started over about 5 times!) and I think I finally have one thats fun
- The ghosts in the mansion section like to cause havoc for racers so watch out
- There are 2 routes for the last bit though getting to the top route requires some skilled bouncing - hitting the top route should cut a few seconds off your lap
Frosty Coast
- A remake of Frosty Village that's barely recognizable and one of my new personal favs - much more focused on the water and ice thing then before.
- Features a large ice cave section with falls that was an absolute nightmare to build - shame you'll probably be flying through too fast to see all the scenery though
As always let me know what you think and if you find any bugs!
That sets things at 10 new tracks from the new tours now - once I get the first 12 tracks up for testing the focus will shift to the classic remakes and getting the first 3 extreme and classic tours finalized. (Worry not though as there will be more tours beyond the first 3)
Here's the tentative tour list I have right now for those that are interested (though things may shift depending on the difficulty of the last 2 tracks I need to build). I've been flipping around the classic tours quite a bit lately as I try and make sure I have all bases covered so here is what they're currently sitting at.

You know you could just hget a memory stick, go into BP game Data or whattever and look for the User created section.

You can't backup stuff saved in the "game data" section onto a flash drive Tec, reason I lost my LBP stuff on my old phat PS3. 
Back on topic, played the new "Chemical Plant" the other night, very nice, love the use of the industrial arctic buildings and as with all your latest tracks, the flow was immense throughout. I remember the original from waaaay back in the day, was always my favourite track of yours back then, I remember it having a very indoor kinda feel, which, pre-placement glitch, was an impressive feat! This new one didn't feel quite as enclosed, which was a little disappointing, are you planning on adding a little bit more roof to cover things over a bit? Seems weird seeing so much blue sky!

Doubtful - I've maxed my prop limit unfortunately
