this is the same one, but it has start and finish, and uphill and downhill, and its free now i guess. When I tried to do a 1 on 1 battle, there is a small glitch, it counts when you go past the timestart as having completed a lap. so it says I did a 6 second lap around akina. but from there on, its normal 1 on 1 race to the top/bottom of the mountain. :D

it’s a shame Raceking works almost only on fantasy and/or useless tracks, this guy got talent. We need more real tracks like Suzuka or Goldenport :)

I wish raceking would make a nice version of Tsukuba. He did a great job with goldenport and updating suzuka.
