After watching the recent Rallycross feature on Top Gear and a Youtube video by Broughy1322 I've been inspired to (attempt to) create some Rallycross tracks, and hopefully you will be too!
Here's a video showcasing what Rallycross is all about, and gives you a good idea of how a Rallycross track should be laid out:
What is Rallycross
Rallycross combines the thrills and spills of off road racing with the excitement of close wheel to wheel combat found in circuit races. The circuits tend to be small, include a mix of surfaces and must include a "joker" lap.
The Rules
Designing a good rallycross route, particularly on PS3 with the 50 prop limit, should be a challenge. This is a ongoing event. Post any PS3 tracks you've made that meet the requirements below (greatly preferred), tag them using #rallycross or send them to me via social club.
At some point I hope to test them and incorporate them into a mini-clean racing event.
Post any comments, ideas and track below. Have fun

What is Rallycross
Rallycross combines the thrills and spills of off road racing with the excitement of close wheel to wheel combat found in circuit races. The circuits tend to be small, include a mix of surfaces and must include a "joker" lap.
The Rules
- Tracks must include at least one off road section and one road section
- Tracks are designed for contact racing
- 4 laps only
- Laps should be shorter than 2 miles. Around 1 mile ideally
- The event will be 6 players maximum so your tracks should support at least 6 players. I'd greatly appreciate creators not using the small grid support to squeeze in 16 player support as it's not necessary for the event and only increases the chance of early incidents.
- Small sensible jumps are encouraged but stunt jumps e.g. loops are not
- Tracks must include a joker lap element. This is a section of the track (without checkpoints) that is taken on one of the 4 laps. It must be at least 2 seconds slower than taking the conventional route. It is important that this route is well laid out and intuitive so don't make it too long
- The races should be locked to:
- The Sultan, Comet or the Kuruma (either type). This means only stock cars will be allowed.
- Two or Three from the Sultan, Comet and the Kuruma (either type). This means all sport customs will be allowed e.g. the Massacro and well and custom Sultans, Comets and Kuruma's.
