Why do these ramps do that?

    It's because there are alot black lines together and that makes the rider go alot quicker.

    I do not get it. Does that mean the surface is smoother because of so many lines, or do you mean thickness is the secret of magical boost?

    P.S. I like alot too. :D

    haha :p

    To be honest I have no Idea why it does that. I just said what I think why it does that, wich is, when there are thick lines are sticking together ( There are no more words in my vocabulary to explain that so you can understand it)

    yeah not sure why but if you lay a whole ton of black lines together you go fast.

    I think it might be because the bikes are only programmed to be able to touch so many lines at one time, so it might be glitching up and "warping" the bike forward as you accelerate. So it is accelerating at the same rate, but speed is added by the warping. These are just my thoughts and not at all proven true or false. I really have no idea what the method was that the administrators use to build this game.

    It does seem to work this way when I am messing with the track creator.

    These lines are created using the grid system. the more complete these lines are, the faster you accelerate. With this you can also make a perfect internal circle.

    Yes but the question is why does the completeness of the line make you accelerate faster.

    Probably because it causes the least resistance to the vehicle.

    That's just maths, you can't get it without reading the physic's source code.

    You know how if you tilt backwards of a ramp it accelarates you farther? What if there are so many lines melding with each other that it does the same effect; your back tire just freaking out at so many lines?
