User-Deli: XL
Lego Track

Friday, 1st July 2022

Like Tiorotti, I remember trying to use Re-Volt's Track Editor as a kid and my tracks were awful. In the modern day, we have much more sophisticated editing tools available to us, and many wonderful tracks have been made with them. Yet, despite its constraints, tracks made in the original Track Editor give me a special feeling that modern tracks don't, and they deserve a seat at the table too -- especially when it's as fun as this one xd I really enjoy the way this track offers the driver multiple routes, as has been done in tracks like Urban X and Route-77 etc. User-Deli: XL takes the concept a step further by placing stars on the slower routes, making the routes much more attractive -- if you can manage to grab the star ofc! Some people surely have complaints about the basic atmosphere. Sure, it's minimalist, it's using the initial editor. But that somehow adds to the novelty of it given its extreme design, with the steep arches and blind leaps, over-the-top bumps (and bumpers), and generally bizarre layout. It's minimal but also Lovecraftian and egregious in the best way possible. And it somehow manages to still keep a (mostly) reliable, albeit dangerous, race line. How?! I dunno but it's really fun, especially when you're at the bumper part at the end of the track on the final lap and someone's right in front of you but they mess up the bumper and you hit the perfect line like you're Ryan Lockwood in the Streets 1:12 video. The double. Body armor. Two quick ones. Extreme. Gaming. Moment. Also, shoutout to every RVA lego track that has been in rotation so far -- Calaboq, Tetanic, and H(8)ty are all really outstanding as well, but as a lover of absurd things, this track is my favorite out of them.
