Dude. This felt very polished for a game jam game, you did real well here. 10/10. This is probably the first game jam game that i'm actually going to keep the game files downloaded for future plays. Awesome job!

While the main loop mechanic is simple it serves the job well enough for the main gameplay of navigating the map in the ship.

The turning on its own felt a bit wide sometimes considering some of the turns, but the brake & boost mechanic helped balance it & introduce an element of skill to balancing your turn angle and speed.

It's a bit hard to tell how to travel to the nearest pole/ramp when on the ground but boosting off of the ramps and getting a bird's eye view and skipping over the walls was pretty fun.

Cool concept! Drifting is a little rough, I needed to brake a lot to get around the poles. Also, signaling when a pole has been circled around, changing it's color from green to another one would be nice, so you can differentiate the ones you've passed by, or a minimap with a similar role.

Pretty cool overall.

The poles do turn black at the top when you have circled around them, but you cant see that when you are below them so yeah good idea.
