    Does anyone have any handy hints for Zone mode cos I'm simply stuck on Mandrashee 3 (the second level) and I am always dying around Zone 24-27 and it is so annoying!!!!

    Nearly got all gold on Challenge and time trial so this is really doing my swede!!

    Yeah - me too.

    It's the last two corners and the hard left as you come up from the underwater tunnel that always seem to catch me. Even on the first lap!

    Strangely I make fewer mistakes as it gets to around zone 20 or so - I find the slower speeds catch me out. But the damage is usually done by then.

    I'm thinking of borrowing a NegCon from work to try and give me some more control.

    Seeing as how i am top of that league at the moment (im really chuffed about it actually rin: ) i feel i must try to answer this one. umm first of all a little tip (im not sure if it actually works though) if you hold down the down button (while steering) it seems to improve it especially on the upward spiral coming out of the tube (foxy). its very hard to give more tips (im no good at this sort of thing) but ill try anyhow. try to avoid some of the speed up pads at the end of the underwater cavern (not the tube) as this will help on the tricky turns after them (this will lower your score in the long run but i still prefer to do it). Thats all i can think of at the moment but ill try to come up with some more asap.

    :fox, it's the same for me. I've got golds everywhere but in the zone. And if it is so difficoult the second sector, I don't want to think how tough can be sector 10! :

    :heaven, my congratulations... Which sector have you reached?

    Still - top marks, I've been playing it for over a month (granted only during my lunch hour for most of it) and I'm only at around 62%!

    Hey! This one seems to be a wipeout developer... only people from the moon could have coded such a sucking respawn (not to mention autopilot!!!) :razz:

    Because I'm on my computer at work I don't have it set up to keep me logged in. (Wouldn't want to be misrepresented by some sly individual...)

    That's why I always show as a Guest. :smile:
