First Impressions (mtc)

This track is my contribution to the October 2023 MTC, which had a requirement that the player be reduced to first gear at least twice, other than at the start.

I tried to avoid the simple solution of just requiring a wall bounce or something similar, and be more creative in forcing the gear. In this track there are two places (other than the start) were you WILL be forced into first gear (I'm pretty sure there's no way to hang onto second), two more places where you will PROBABLY get forced into first, unless you drive things juuust right, and one more place where you will intentionally choose first gear if you want a faster time (odd as that may sound).

This was a great comp idea, and I had a lot of fun working on this track. As always, any feedback is appreciated, and replays are especially cool!

Thanks on this track to Juice, for the great grass road blocks, and more thanks to eyebo, iNDEX, OrNithorynque, stupskiesel.nc, StunTMan, and slowpiou for additional custom items--the track is much better than it would have been thanks to your talent and hard work!
