Make sprite follow track path & switch lanes

Hi,

I've been searching the forum but haven't found what i'm looking for so i hope someone can help me out.

I've got a sprite and i want it to follow around a track and have to option to switch between lanes by tapping.

Like this -

What i'm looking for is the sprite (redball) to follow along the path and when you tap, it switches between the inside and outside. I also am looking for it to get gradually faster as time goes.

I've tried doing this by giving the sprite the car behaviour and have it steer when i reach a turn by using a marker to tell the sprite to turn. Unfortunately i couldn't get it to work properly as i found that it requires a lot of tinkering and even then, it's not perfect.

I would appriciate any help on this please.

Basic, no plugins, just lerping.

With regards to your example, if i wanted the car to go the opposite direction by pressing SPACE, how would i do that? I tried but couldn't get it to work perfectly, i was hoping you could help.

Thanks
