Overview
Zigzag has 10 corners, 7 right-hand and 3 left-hand, turning through 720° in total on a 403 m lap. The tightest corner has a 14 m radius. At 17 m wide it is one of the narrowest tracks in the game, where one wall touch ends the run.
To beat the target you need an average of 43.3 s a lap. Corners swap direction, so the transitions between them decide the lap.

Tips
- Drive one clean lap first: any wall contact restarts the run, and your ghost only records runs you finish.
- Once you have a personal best, race its ghost and watch the checkpoint splits to find the corner that costs you time.
- On a track this narrow, a smaller angle and an earlier entry are faster than a heroic slide.
