Florion Height is a race location in Wipeout Fusion. Taking place in the desert region of Nevada, this is one of the three locations available at start, though only Course 1 Forward is available at start.
Description[]
The US government is said to have increased income tax by around 7000 per cent in order to help finance the building of this circuit in the Nevada desert, and even then, its construction was dogged by tragedy. Dorian Nantucket was site foreman during the building phase, and he commented shortly after it opened, "Good friends died out there in Nevada, and we were building that circuit not knowing whether it'd ever work! People tell me they ran out of money a year before we were done, and I can believe it 'cause I've never been paid, but when I see them racing out there now, it makes my head spin with pride."
Variations[]
Short Course[]
The game's introductory course, Florion Height's short course is predictably straightforward. The track takes a left turn in the venue's large trackless desert section, followed by a long s-bend.
Medium Course[]
Tracks two and three make a right turn within the trackless section, with the medium course further splitting off following a long, segregated turn. This track includes a section in tunnel, where falling off a sheer cliff into a river of magma results in elimination.
Long Course[]
Florion Height's long course is mountainous and travels into the clouds. As a result, it features large height variance. A sequence of fan jumps further distinguishes this fast paced track from its neighbors.
