STK Enterprise is an official STK track, created by rubberduck and Jean-Manuel Clémencon (samuncle).

The track shown from above

History

STK Enterprise was added as an official track to STK 0.8.1 after being an addon as "In the Spaceship" for some time before already. The track was mainly created by rubberduck, and samuncle made a few changes before it got released as official track.

Description

The track is suitable for middle and heavy karts. A normal lap takes about 50 seconds, the default laps number is 3.

The starting grid is placed on a straight, soon after the start 3 giftboxes follow which make the start quite important. Then, the road splits in two parts which complement each other to form a circle. A 90 degree turn to the right, a short straight ending in 3 gifts and a 180 degree curve formed by two sharp 90 degree turns which have a short straight with 3 small nitros in between are follwing after the paths came back together again. The road is getting wider for a short time, offering a few more gifts and nitros until the road splits again. Players now have the choice between two parallel paths (one in front, one behind); or they start on the front path, go through the middle, take a big nitro with them, and end on the back path. In any way, two more sharp 90 degree turns, both to the left, follow after the paths have merged again. After the turn, the road ends in a big black zipper which leads players to 2 nitro and a gift before the road turns to the right, and then to the left into some kind of bigger room. Players can lose or win quite a lot of time in that part of the track, depending on where they go. The best choice in most cases is staying on the left side as much as possible and taking one gift as well as 3 nitros until the road leads to the final straight.

The whole track is located in a black spaceship which makes the background rather boring. It is colored rather dark with a few excpetions.

Overall, STK Enterprise is one of the most difficult existing tracks, due to a lot of 90 degree turns, nasty corners in the wall disturbing the driving sometimes, difficulty to see where the road goes and some hard-to-avoid placed bananas.

However, STK Enterprise is quite popular in online gaming, especially among top players. Newer players often get confuse about the route.
