I am glad to have done it justice in the end. If you haven’t tried the game, I can’t recommend it more. It’s certainly not for everyone, but it has an unmatched amount of charm. Plus, it’ll give you context on a lot of the details and decisions that went into this track. I may have hidden a secret message somewhere within the track as well...''

Overview

Fort Francis (formerly known as When Geeks Custom Track) is a custom track created by JadenMKW. It was made for the 33rd edition of the Custom Track Jam competition series, where it placed second. The track is themed after The Bitlands from Super Paper Mario. Both the author and Rex made tracks themed after The Bitlands to poke fun at Questorian, who was known within Custom Track Jams for frequently making Paper Mario tracks. Questorian has since retired from the Mario Kart Wii community. This track is dedicated to him.

The v2.0 update and onward greatly expands on the concept, adding an entirely new section passing through the aforementioned Fort Francis, as well as a new Meowmaid custom object (penguin_m). In v3.0, many final visual and gameplay enhancements have been made in preparation for the track's addition to CTGP Revolution.
