Credit    : Me :) and Ozone for helping me figure out my map editor problem!  Thanks a ton Oz!  
            Now look out for a lot of new maps to be coming from me now that its fixed. 


Description of the Map
-------------------------------
Welcome to Ridge Run.  One big, tough, and dangerous race track.  Its probably one of the longer
raceways for Nitro.  The track itself is one long haul of asphalt through mountainous terrain.
There are some interesting shortcuts throughout the way, hopefully you'll make it through and
survive.  Even though I made the surface with no chassis damage per second, your ride will still
most likely be trashed by the time you reach the end.  I tried to include original things too.
Like a "roll-in" regen ramp.  So after you regen you can get your speed back easily.  And a big 
smokin' crater jump.  (Many will parish before getting that one down.)  If you find the first 
shortcut, I'd only try using it if you are perfectly capable of handling it.  WARNING: Its for 
experienced drivers only!  Its an almost impossible jump to tunnel landing, about 600 feet in 
the air.  The second shorcut is a twisting road linked by a bridge then a jump high above the 
asphalt beneath.  CAUTION:  When you see a 55mph Speed Limit sign, all it means is SLOW DOWN!  
Not all the way to 55, but at least a little, or your most likely to go flying.  IMPORTANT: When
you see a "Speed Zone Ahead" sign it means there is a checkpoint in that area and you better
make sure your on the road to make it.  This is a very difficult map, and most of you hardcore 
Nitro racers will love this map.  But once you think you have it down... try the sucker in 
reverse and be prepared for a WHOLE new experience!  As always... ENJOY!!!


How to Install the Map
-------------------------------
Unzip into the respective miss8 and miss16 folders in your Nitro directory.


Technical Details
-----------------
Because of the size of this map, the chekpoints were placed directly on the roads.  And if you
complete a lap, you might not always get every checkpoint exactly to show that you have gained
a lap on the scores, its not really a bug but I though you should know.  This map was also
designed with no regard for software mode users.  It runs great on a 3d card, but will most
likely lag without.  SORRY!  But if you really love this game you should get a 3d card anyways!
:)

Any bugs, please let me know!
