All blocks are made in the mesh modeler giving more freedom to mappers that want to create or quickly edit blocks, or for users unfamiliar with the mesh modeler it makes it very easy to modify. Please reuse these blocks to make it easier on yourself, improve them if you find geometry improvements, change textures, skins, etc, I don't mind. It is my intention to make it easier for others. I assume I will need to make adjustments to some of the blocks based on feedback or things I find. If so, I'll update the set and all you need to do is replace the _RD_Race_Mix folder.

All standard race blocks:

• Groups and layers are applied in mesh modeler making it easy for you to change.
• Removed barriers/fences and excess geometry
• Opened up more space
• Awnings are drivable
• Border wall is drivable
• Red/white bumper is lowered to ground level
• Mixes textures Super Mag (no accel), regular road, and Slidding Rubber

Shoutouts

Mappers & Racers - Your messages and feedback have been helpful and inspiring. Honestly, DMs or comments get my attention quick. I would like to continue this project by expanding the item pack and hope to provide canyon with more options and creative tools for those who like to express their creative side. Near the time of the item release, I am not sure what this entails, but I hope you like it :)

eyebo - Helped me get associated with resources available, limitations or restrictions of the game, YouTube tutorials, TM history discussions, and just listening to a lot of bantering. That is truely an exhaustive list. On his side, he has put in quite a bit of effort to help me "do it" when I just have ideas, thank you eyebo, very much appreciated.

XJR1300/tdm900 - Better known as Dennis.... honestly if he changed all of his names to Dennis, it would ezpz and no one would question who Dennis is.. It's a niche name not really used, unique, and cool. Dennis has been a good sounding board for ideas. He tested a few things, reviewed them, and said "alskdjflkasjdflk" when it needed it. He continues to use the items, provide feedback, and some of the updates YOU expect, when you don't message me..... so he's kind of like customer support, HR, auditing, and marketing. Since his palette of mapping is quite diverse, it's good to have his feedback and support. Thank you DENNIS.... you help keep the mappers happy, and increase the quality of my items, very much appreciated.

Mr. Bug and the henchman JD. They are willing to test a map on a whim, no preface needed. It's honest, immediate feedback quickly that helps determine weaknesses in builds a better final product. The specificty in testing the line and the style is important, and they help keep a check on the "line" aspect. Much appreciated, thank you.
