We tried that and the cars where slipping onto the up ramp meaning you had no control where you entered the ramp.

This was done so that you had grip to be able to slow down in time for the corner and not smash the car into the wall.

I dont know if you saw but there where lights in the stage right by your feet. The cars where going over the table at a speed and if there was not a gap then there would have been damage to the equipment.

I understand that not every track that is built is perfect but both me and Danny are more then willing for you to come down and help us build the track.
