    Get something really heavy to hit the front of your bike really hard.

    In my track Irreversable I had a spinning I-Beam at the beginning. I had to do a lot of tweaking with the placement of the starting line and beam to get it to work correctly.

    You can also use something big like the concrete block or wall piece. Have it set off the ride line with the physics turned off and "lock to drive line" turned on. When you trigger the physics on, it will shoot into the drive line quickly. Place everything (triggers, object, ect) so when you trigger it, your front of the bike gets hit. In my track Stink Hole I used a cradle of sorts to hold the bike in place while all this happens.

    It takes a lot of tweaking and trial and error to get it to work right, so good luck! If you dont have a basic know-how of the editor (things like setting up and triggering physics objects) then I reccomend you dont try it. You will probably just break another controller with your anger management issues.

    I wouldnt even reverse the bike anyway. It sucks riding backwards, unless you turn the camera around as well so its like its normal, which i think jook did.

    But do what u want man, get into the editor, its fun as hell.

    Sometimes for me, its less about making a fun riding track and more about trying something new. Pushing the editor to do new things. But for that "new ideas" thing, the riding backwards has been around for a while now and is old news.

    You should practice making "normal" tracks before going into the fancy physics possibilities. Like try making the driving line as fun as possible, and pay attention to detail in decoration. The goal is to make Dosto say something else than "It sucks" when he tries your track!

    i did i completly by accident like a year ago, i have it saved somewhere in a bunch of crap tracks, what i did was slam a container into him and he spazes out and is faces the other way. its not real fun riding the other way tho
