For many years, community members have hosted a time attack competition on TMX called ARC. The goal of this competition was to determine the best time attack driver across the most popular map styles. In 2019 it is finally time to bring this competition to TM2!
To get an idea of the competition, you can take a look at one of the highlight videos that seb made for the 2019 ARC on TMX:

Building Information
How do I enter:
* Build a track in a certain style;
*
Name your track 'ARC2019 - xxx' where 'xxx' stands for your name; please also add a tag at the end, which style the map is about. [FS] - [T] - [D] - [RPG] - [Multi].
* Send the track in a PM to me here on MX or on Discord: Sky#1505
Rules:
* You can build as many tracks as you want for each style, however only 1 map of yours will be chosen per style.
* If you build multiple tracks for one specific style (e.g. FS), only 1 track can be chosen.
* Already released tracks are not allowed.
* You can stream your mapping process, but please do not publish the map before the round it will be played in.
* Follow the specific track rules for the styles.
* Try to keep the scenery to a reasonable amount.
* Duotracks are allowed.
* Blockmixing is allowed. Please keep it reasonable.
* Extended building area is allowed for Multi-Style tracks
