Hi coaster friends,

Wow, we were absolutely overwhelmed by the amount of submissions for the Go-Karts competition! We received over 300 incredibly gorgeous Go-Karts tracks, themed to perfection and ready for a race! After careful consideration we narrowed it down to a top 5, voted by the Planet Coaster team based on originality, ingenuity, creativity, and usability. We're so proud of all of the awesome work you have done, so don't think for a second we weren't blown away by yours even though you didn't make it in the top.

5. Whitesider - Castle Racing
Planet Coaster Team: "The angled buildings provide such character and it's superbly lit. It is a great looking track with a wonderful centrepiece of a palace with many spires jutting out at all angles and odd walls above tracks adorned with flowers."

4. Rudi Rennkamel - Clockwork Karts
Planet Coaster Team: "Just blew a lot of us away in the office, fantastic idea! It combines some original theming with excellent scenery building. We love how the tracks as a whole is encapsulated into the pocketwatch which works on its own as a scenery piece. Very innovative!"

3. Kimattacks - The Great Movie Race
Planet Coaster Team: "This makes fantastic use of different themes plus it has a shark!!! It's so varied in its design and has made great use of the FX emitters and animatronics."

2. Posse - Pirate Speedway
Planet Coaster Team: "Really love how densely populated the Pirate Speedway track is, there's always something to look at. Awesome theming style, great track, and a lovely use of in-game items. The entrance arch with the shipwreck props is gorgeous; what a way to style a track!"

And the winner, whose blueprint will be featured permanently in-game:
1. TrickyPlaysGames - Princess Amelie's Castle Karts
Planet Coaster Team: "Love the symmetry, love the scenery. This would make a great centerpiece in any park. The flawless symmetry is great and the castle is very well built; it also looks incredibly beautiful at night."

Again, thanks to everyone for participating in the fun. We will definitely do more of these as well as another livestream showing off some more incredible creations, as there were just so many great ones.

Wow, just wow.

To even come up with the idea Rudi had, let alone manage to turn that into something is crazy! And the level of detailing in the other entries is just amazing [up] Congratulations to all.
 
some of these seem a bit odd for the competition, I've seen some others that I thought were better. Out of these 5 I hope either the clock wins or the Princess Castle (though its a bit strange that Bo already showed those off in the workshop wonderland stream)

Well, that's a matter of taste. :) - The Princess castle would have been my number 4 to be honest, but like I wrote before: It's a matter of taste and the team choose them in the order you see above. ;)

These ARE the top 5, and the Princess Castle IS the winner. We love all of them, they're super well-deserved. Showing it on the stream was a completely coincidence, I even mentioned that as I showed it. I did not vote myself.

Congratulations to everybody!
@Frontier: Why not implement all of them? They all look great [heart][heart]

I wish we could! We'll definitely do more of these competitions during special events/milestones, but I have to balance it with the devs and their work! [heart]

What you may think was better is just an opinion though, we're not going to all agree with everything. It was a worthy winner nonetheless [up]
 
Waw [woah] they are all really good. That must have been pretty hard to choose a winner from all of those.

Looks like I have a few new people to subscribe to [big grin]
