ESFC Mapping Guidelines (follows TMX Mapping Guidelines)

SpeedFun Definition:

• Similar to FullSpeed. However, tracks involve release parts and/or drifts generally not started by braking. Can also include walls, loops, and SpeedDrifts, but usually not as many as FullSpeed. Turnovers, corkscrews, and 'Tsunami-Walls' are not common.
  
• At least 3 drift/release parts per map
  
• Check out the Speed Styles Comparison on Trackmania Wiki
  

General Track Design:

• Author time between 45 seconds and 1 minute
  
• A clear and simple design, easy to complete on your first run
  
• No parts requiring perfect speed or overly precise steering
  
• No blind turns
  
• Place checkpoints strategically to reduce the possibility of cuts
  
• Intermediate difficulty
  
• Preferred mood: Day
  
• Be mindful of display cost, under 7,500 is preferred (avoid pink cherry trees)
  
• Please set no Pasword on your map during the testing phase, you can do so for the final map
  

Required:

• Scenery should be used to lead the driver
  
• Use only the official TMX signpack
