Themed Lego Extreme Track Competition

Hey all, Zeino and I would like to invite you to a Themed Lego Extreme Track Competition we're hosting!

Rules
The goal of the competition is to create a Lego Extreme track fitting a certain theme. These tracks will then be judged in a poll by all those willing to do so, after which a winner is declared.
Changes to a default Lego track can range from simple texture swaps to fully modelled environments, as long as the raceline is still largely based on that of the original Lego one. For reference, The Catacombs is a good example of how far you are allowed to push the boundaries.

Details
Given the current time of year, the theme this time will be Spring. This episodes' deadline is 09/06/2019, at 24:00 UTC. To enter, all you need to do is send your submission to either Tryxn (Zeino)#7121 or Wichilie#8974 on Discord, before the deadline passes.
You can get the latest version of the Track Editor here.

We hope to see your track soon!

This is a great idea. I will join the competition, and already have an idea in mind. :)

By the way: Until now, I thought The Catacombs is an Extreme track. Wow... :shock:

Sounds fun! I'll see what I can do. Can I also change the path mesh or should they be the same?

You can do that in some parts if you'd like, as long as it doesn't occur too often; the majority of the track should be easily recognisable as a Lego (Extreme). Small offroad or edited sections are fine.

In general, try to see your track as a Lego with added decorations instead of an Extreme limited by a Lego raceline and you'll be in the right mindset to create something fitting for this tournament.

Only 2 entries...what a shame. I thought a lot more people planned to work on a track. :(

Very nice work Alex. Next time I will also do a racing track and not a stunt arena. :)

I had hoped for one or two more entries! Yet, an amazing and huge project came out of this, and that alone would make me very glad that this competition was made. ;) But besides that we've also got a great track for racing! I'm looking forward to the official release of that (supposing there will be one...).

The poll has ended, and Kiwi has won! Congratulations!

If you wish to (re-)participate in a competition like this, keep your eyes out for the next installment: it will be launched soon...

Only 5 votes? Wow... It should take at most an hour to be able to vote. You didn't need to complete Beehive Valley Adventures, in my opinion...

Congratulations Kiwi!
So well deserved as your track goes far past what one expects from a lego extreme.
Only two entries and 5 votes is a disappointment though.

What a shame, I didn't look at the forum for a while and I already missed an impressive event.
Anyways, if you are planning a 2nd round, please notify me on discord, it's summer you know. ;)
If you pay with yen I will give you discount...
