I think the place where you will either gain/lose a massive amount is the final hairpin going up the hill and how you land the 6th BR. I noticed in my video that after this corner my ghost was miles ahead of me. will have a look into it. :)
Improved my time to 27.75, some BR's, 9 SP's
I found 1 more br last night but was lucky and havent tried again, boost same place but try and land on left lip nr speedpad where the track narrows before opening into tunnel,
i got an xtra br then with the br into sharpright tip i flew up the last bit very fast, shame i did it on a bad lap,
I reckon i would of been close yelda if i got the 6th br which i missed, is it possible to do every barrel roll on tt? Do u lose more health or the same on a bad br?:P
Same for any BR, doesn't matter if it is successful or not - if you hear the weird noise before a BR, you will lose 15%.
I've done that BR before but the problem is, if you go into the tunnel too fast, it is very hard to get the 11BR because you have too much speed going into the 10th one.
In TT I tried to do 11BRs / lap (because you can't do the one at the start of each lap) but I only managed 11 on my first lap....my fastest lap :lol (If i remeber correctly it was 27.2x, just for reference)
cool my fastest just then was 27.27 in a tt lap but i ended up getting a 31 at last lap lol. i have been on for hr and hands tired already, been trying the tt only 4.5 secs away so far, im guessing im averaging 9 a lap though on the last 2 laps, but usaully can do 1 or 2 decent laps then i flake.
Could you not use your boost at the end of the first three laps for quick lap starts? On the last lap use it before the tunnel. I think you can double down the straight before the tunnel. Would this be any quicker or even more consistent at least?
i tried that m8 but i think lose too much time at that speed, it seemed to work on rapier, certainly easier to be consistent but i think u lose too much on 1st lap, i can get 27.6 at best or 29 boosting at end,
you guys talking speed lap or time trial?
Anyway, I think Yeldar could turn those 12 br's into 13... I'm sucking at all of them so I don't know if it's faster, but anyway: if you approach it from the right angle from the corner just before the straight in the middle, you can do the 2 up there, and if you can tilt up a little from that second BR you can boost and get a 3rd, essentially making the string of BR's on sebenco last nearly the whole track, even though the break between them doesn't exactly last very long missing this BR.
I've been working on these br's and they're nuts... i can't do br2, 4 or 5 very well at all and its making me rage :(
27.81 - Fury, for me, it's so hit and miss for me as to whether I get the BRs. There's so many that I've overdosed on them to the point I'm missing the second one at the hump now which is/was impossible. :P
I've noticed using a PS1 dual shock is much easier to do BRs than the PS3 controller; the D-pad doesn't have to rock as much to go left to right.. the only down side is Up and Down are less accurate, as you'll sometimes also press Left or Right like if you're trying to bring your nose down in mid-air.
yeah it can be hit n mess, if you manage to get a good line you dont need to ss for br 2 or 4 which then makes it easier to turn corners, ive tried to learn both lines so if i know im not fast enough to br without can change line, i have done over 250 laps though and have been close to crushing my joypad.
To amplificated, i understand wat your saying i think its similar to 1 i spotted but it means getting double br at hill is harder due to speed, im gonna try and see
I'm finding BR #3 and #4 particularly difficult (ones at the first right hander of the course.) I can't seem to get my speed and angle correct.
The key to 3/4 is the right SS on the pad and being way over to the right as you pitch up...i think that's right...:paperbag ??
@barny: Yeah I think boosting at the start could be faster if it was a perfect run. with the current method you can miss a few BRs and still be ok. defs faster on venom though...maybe...can't remember..erg...
:g
I tried last night the method boosting into lapstart and on 4th lap boosting in normal spot and managed to get 1.54 quite easy wasnt a perfect run but very good one though. i dont think better than 1.50 that way though, i was very close last night to breaking 1.49 i got
27.53
27.32
27.80
then on last lap i just totally screwed up, was feeling pretty sour after that, The first lap was a belter though
why , why , why ,WHHHYYYY !!!
Why there is always a last lap ?!?
why tt cannot stop on lap bzfore this F....ng last lap
:eek :rolleyes:
careful, I wouldnt post your TT lap times here... avoid confusion. ...and frustration lol :P
I say we should also have a contest for best snap shot on each speed lap challenge hahaha XD here's a cool one I grabbed in the ice tunnel
thats one fine picture, the craft looks tiny there
THe photo mode uses the same graphics camera engine as when you're racing I think, so it kinda skews scale and perspective... I dunno how to explain it.
Quiet week, damn 25 seconds lol:P
