Yamaga Pass / Touge (山鹿市, Yamaga-shi) is a location in the Kumamoto Prefecture of Japan. This course is a short, semi-fantasy road, meaning that the course layout is inspired by a real location, but the surrounding foliage, terrain and objects are all fantasy made/placed.
This project was originally started in 2019 with the intention of being as close to possible as the real location, but unfortunately was abandoned due to lack of time. I decided to pick the project back up in late 2021 to finish it off as a fantasy course, as I enjoyed driving the layout a lot and didn't want the course to be wasted.
Yamaga is a very tight, unforgiving pass. It's incredibly useful for learning/training touge driving due to the shortness of the course - plus the narrow, sharp corners which allow for precise throttle control in order to run at a high pace. I'd recommend using mid-power 4WD cars or some lower powered RWD vehicles in order to experience the pass to it's best potential.
