Story:
Dateline: Groundhog Day. One year, the groundhog's sighting of his shadow not only heralded an early Spring, but also caused an unusual event.

The sky cleared, the weather warmed up, and hundreds of flowers sprouted, all in a hurry. The newly blossomed flora was then intended to be seen by people, and as a result, a new garden trail called Floral Greens was constructed.

Surrounding this trail are flowers of different kinds, bees hard at work to pollinate them all, streams crossed by bridges, and a gazebo where yoga can be practiced. This was a chance for the Re-Volt stock cars to use this trail as a racing track.

Trivia:
- The raceline for this track is made using the Track Editor, and I gave the world mesh a major makeover so that it's not a Lego track.
- Same as my other tracks, I composed original music specifically for this track.
 - This music track is an arrangement of two movements from Ludwig van Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 8 in C minor, namely the Pathétique Sonata.

Inspirations:
- Can't think of what to list for this track...sorry.
