    how come im not in that list of players vart? I was racing with you to (I kid I kid)
    Serious though, I don't "feel" the stat advantage that are supposed to be in the fury ships. I have noticed that a lot of the fury ships feel "lighter" or "bouncier", getting pushed outta the way and over the track edge easier. That said, it could have just been the constant bad luck I have when racing online against anyone like greenix/vart/yeldar/etc. I will stick with my AG-S for now, since I know how it reacts.

    The new fiesar is the only ship i've seen a consistent increase in speed.

    I knew I forgot someone! My bad redscar!!!
    I imagined that I was the guilty cheating boyfriend with the model girlfriend that did everything for me (named AG SYSTEMS).

    Convo went a little something like this.

    AG: OH Var! Where were you? I missed you!
    Var: Oh No where...
    AG: You were at that Miss Feisars Place werent you? HOW COULD YOU!
    Var: IM SO SORRY, LET ME RACE WITH YOU AGAIN!!!
    (I win 8 races in a row)

    Ditto that for Qirex, Triakis and Auricom.

    They're all vastly improved - especially the brick - really takes the fun out of victory if it's easier to steer.

    Crap ships = Win.

    The more I play, I don't know that there is a advantage/disadvantage to the Fury vs. HD ships. But they certainly feel different than the HD counterparts.

    I don't think that can be said in any other way. They just feel different.

    And both are equally angry.

    Even if the old one is better, I refuse to use it as the Fury fish looks that much nicer. I don't usually win anyway, so it doesn't really matter; but when I do win, I'm going to look damn good doing so. Booya!

    The big left corner on chenghou was a great way to see the difference in handling between the old and new AG-Sys ship/ The old one tended to bounce alot but the new one takes that corner much smoother.

    i Do use both piranhas, but i really like the handling of the old one much better. only thing i like gamewise on the new one is the sexy improved thrust.

    apperancewise im divided, i like the new one alot in chase cam though especially with the ZB skin, transparent wings and WO-Hd tracks goes hand in hand.
    overall apperance i like the clean HD one better
