Well, that was an amazing STORY! All the written quotes before each green light had me thinking about the Initial D Series over and over. I'm so glad I watched it because it gave me a great appreciation for the time and effort you spent on the video. The upgrades are fantastic! Sorry my modified Trueno stunk it up. Maybe someday I'll construct a "normal" open track so I can actually test the cars I build. Thanks so much for the adventure, Sean!!

I'm nearly moved to tears at how enthralling this qualifying event is to me! The sound design _alone_ is a *master class* achievement, in which I could tell rotary from standard, upshifts from downshifts, and not the slightest bump against the track walls was left out. Lots of hosts can get good balance in their sound effects, but this tops everything, _everything_ I've witnessed before. Visually, a feast as always, supplemented by the astounding comic book panels at the new start area! Getting the overall look is relatively simple for these introductions based on my own work with filters, and perhaps an all B&W treatment would have been closer to manga, but there's no way I'll quibble about the choices made when the tremendous work and execution is staring me in the face. Like I first said, *enthralling* . Even the B-roll here makes a statement right from the opening scene! More than mere qualifying, less of a conventional race, the format again breaks the mould as we get to see how cars handle themselves in a contested on track battle. On a track specifically designed to maximise the number of cars finishing, that only means drivers have no choice but to push their builds _further and faster_, eking out the last ten-thousandths possible! Nice to see how many drivers enhanced their standing between runs where they came in first both times! Speaking of times, how a 16 flat wasn't good enough today, that just tells me teams know more from experience how to gain every benefit for this venue, glad to see it. With all the pure goodness apparent here, the final survivor race for the 16th spot had more gravitas and tension than what I see in a lot of other standard races. Some of your very best work, here, eP!! Good luck all, you gained my respect just by entering this white knuckle ride! Banzai to our 16 moving on!

The track looks amazing. I LOVE how the 90° crossover makes the dual lane section so interesting. I kind of hold my breath to see who comes out in front. It's awesome action. Just watch Sam vs R-Lo. Fantastic pass by R-Lo, then Sam Crushes the fastest time. Incredible. I also love the graphics treatments. Great work.

I feel like the depth of reality that your track offers just got even deeper. its so immersive I hope you feel great about it! Can't wait for more.

Your night racing was fantastic, along with your Fast and Furious tournament. Epic videos. Yet you’re still able to bring cinema gold like this. The sound effects alone make this video top notch. You have some serious skills, sir. Maybe some day one of my mods will make it to your track. Thanks again for the video. Great job on the builds everyone!😎

As i write here i sit on aprox 500 different Models including Team Transport and some Premium ones. From left to right i have easy place like 4 (bit over 13 feet) Meters per Lane, just the room height is about 2 (kinda 6,5 feet) Meters total. Guess i will have to do some testing how flat or steep i have to make each lane so the cars have enough momentum and i can still make as many left to right lanes as possible hehe.
