Well, the dip I think you are right about. But the cars run better with it there, so it stays. As far a straightaway goes the shape of this track is going to be similar to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. IMS has small straights in between the corners. Those straights have been dubbed "short chutes". If I get this one right I am going to try a tri-oval next.

Even if it is not accurate it is fun to drive on and a nice change from a flat track.

Post some pics of your banked turn if you have any. I'd like to see it.

once i finish my downhill course, i'm giong to concentrate more on the huge grandprix style track i have designed and then i'm going to get right into the banking curves ( and i know what you mean with the dip in the corner, it does help with the cars, you can fly at the corners and fly out of them, i love it

You might want to right click on it and "save target as". It will take a few minutes to download.
