    On Ubermall forward I take the right split because everyone else goes for the weapon pad - speed pad combo on the left, and on Ubermall reverse I take the left because of the speed pads and it feels a little more natural for some reason.

    Left (F) - Right (R)

    On R I can do Left too.
    I never took the Right one on F. Ever. (Well I did but it must be lower than 20 times...)

    I raced alone for a while before trying online play. When I met Ubermall, I realized that it would be easy for me to always take one side or the other. So, I varied my pattern from race to race so that I *can* make that split-second decision.

    There are probably subtle calculations that I make during each Ubermall online tournament race that I run but, for all intents an purposes, I don't know and don't especially care which side of the split I take from lap to lap or race to race. I will probably never know if this is a good or bad thing.

    I go right, cause only excentric, island-bound people would compulsively go left.

    Now was that Japan or Britain?

    Sounds like a good idea; taking the time to have a nice sit down, a few drinks, some food, and a good chat with the locals. Gettin' to know the place.

    Lance, it IS in the food court, so you could make that happen.

    In the food court, I once held a guy in an AG Systems sweat shirt at gunpoint with an Icaras. He looked nervous.

    I base my decision on each lap on how the other pilots go. If I see them going
    the left, I go right. On the right side you can get shorter (not much though)
    distance after coming out from the left hand turn but on the left you can get
    the speed pad AND the weapon pad as opposed to choosing between them on
    the other side of the split.
