    OK still need a lot of work on these times, but here are my initial ones. Gonna work on them later on the bus...for they will come down

    Venom - 36.22- Piranha UPDATED
    Phantom- 24.99- Piranha


    Phantom is still way fast for me, but with some practice that time will come down, cause I screwed up alot.

    Nice times

    Where are you chaps hitting the boost? At the end of the second mag strip section or on the last bend?

    The venom challenge should be pretty easy, however the phantom challenge is a wee bit more difficult

    Totally in agreement with your second statement.....

    about turbo strategy......i'm pretty sure it's possible go under 35..... hope.... for Asa or Mad for sure, for me....mmmmh...maybe ah ah ah

    Start with previous turbo and stay as close as possible in the first chicane before the first MS (Mag Strip).
    Pass over all the SP and when i'm straight on the line of view through the bends before the second MS shoot my turbo.
    in the last left bend i pass over the first SP and Sideshift to the left, little fly and BR and.....whooosh...arrive!

    I think is possible a little flight before the second MS and I hope to make a little dear BR to go under 35....

    I have been using the turbo just before the end of the 2nd mag strip - I think where you hit it relates to how fast you can take that last nasty corner. Good shout on the sideshift left into it - when it works, it works a treat but it is tricky

    A BR before the 2nd mag strip? Good luck bro

    Nice Feisar time Stevie The current record on Venom is 35.92 by AlterEgo in a Piranha.

    Edit : YEEEEESSSSSSS!!! I done it!

    Finally done the phantom challenge (4am) - I got a 22.90 (Perfect Lap with 7 boost pads) in the Piranha

    Uhm, I think you mistyped those times after yours. They should read 23:13 and so on...

    Btw, here's mine so far:
    Moa Therma White - Phantom
    23:21 Piranha (no PL, no BR, 6 Turbos)

    Well... here's me first pitiful attempt in this challenge. I can probably improve on Phantom (no PL there yet), but: How the hell do you BR+turbo before the finish line in Venom? Most times I try, my nose points into the sky, hence no or a useless turbo or even a being set back somewhere before the chicane. And does the short boost you get before the finish line really make up for your air time in Phantom?

    Venom: 35.93 Piranha
    Phantom: 23.52 Assegai

    Ive no idea about using a BR on venom bro - I never attempt one. I would agree and say one would be pointless I think in Phantom. Any air time is a killer

    Here are the updated times

    Count me in on this challenge (as soon as I get to my PSP, that is). It's time to put my beloved AGSYS to the test to see just how well-balanced these ships are. Currently at 35.90 (Venom).

    I'm in. Let me download this ghost.

    ----------

    Oops, semi-bump.
    So, I downloaded Mu5's demo. How the hell can he go that fast right from the start? Is it because he already has speed from last round? My best time is 24.28 s.

    most of the best single laps will effectively have 2 turbos used. one from the preceding lap, used just before the start/finish line. the other used elsewhere on the lap where it will do the most good.

    One record falls, then another:

    35.62 Venom
    22.83 Phantom

    AG Systems, of course.

    My phantom lap wasn't a perfect one, and I missed at least two boost pads (one of them on purpose ). Also ground off the side of my ship about twenty feet from the finish line -- very tight lines overall though. That number nine handling rating comes in handy on phantom.

    EDIT: Neverdown and others, I'll upload the ghost tomorrow. Currently at work.
