Ok I'm starting to get the hang of that 5th BR but pulling it in the same lap as the one on to the bridge is proving difficult!
Managed it one lap and then missed the BR off the overpass, which you would think is almost impossible!
Finally strung it all together and got a 20.65 :D Pictures to come later.
It did come at a cost though, it logged it as PLAYER record instead of my PSN id and now my WipEout HD seems to have become corrupted. Just won't load :mad:
Re-downloading now:-
Don't redown, the servers are down at the moment
and great job on the time :D
Yeah, realised after i'd re-downloaded :(
OOh, new working leaderboards mean I can see Mietepets and Dark Phantom's times :) But not Yeldar's presumably because his Icarus time is higher.
guilty ;)
I reckon I could have that dirty Icarus' time though :lol
20.94, 4 BR's, 11 Speed Pads. Will I actually beat Mietepiet this week? :D
Picture to come later when my phone has charged
EDIT: Picture
got 20.35 a while back, will post a piccy if i don't beat it :g
I'm sorry mate, just had a couple of :beer's with Mr. BR5
20.76 - 5BR - 14pads
Attachment 1339
@Yelder: HERE I COME :D
thinking:"how on earth do I improve 0.50 secs:eek:eek"
it's all in the lines :)
I've found that the boostBR and where you land actually makes a huge difference - can make/break your lap :)
Yeah, noticed that with my 20.96 ghost, was always comming ahead after that boost BR
Damn, thought I was actually going to beat you this week Mietepiet. Guess I was kidding myself! I really need to get to know Mr BR5...
Ok, I think it would take me about 5000 more laps to better this time. I am so inconsistent.
20.65 5BR 13 Speed Pads
Week 4's Speed Lap Challenge has come to an end, and Week 5 is now in progress. Reclaiming his throne as the Speed Lap Champion this week is yeldar2097 :)
A reminder: The criteria for this week are as follows: SPEED LAP/MOA THERMA (FORWARD)/RAPIER/AURICOM
Seeing as the leaderboards are now up and working, if your highest personal time is using the appropriate ship, you may simply state "my time is xx.xx, see leaderboard for result
Anyone had a chance to have a go at this yet?
So far I've got 26.64 8pads, 2 BR.
It is my fastest time so should be on the leaderboard, but it doesn't seem to have updated yet. I think I can scratch a little bit off the time, but not much!
I've had a quick go at it, will post time a bit later on :)
Just had a session where I was raging pretty hard towards the end of - I just couldn't, for whatever reason, get that barrel roll on the final corner... for like 60/99 laps. Don't know what's wrong with me.
26.32, 1 BR, 9 speed pads, Auricom Fury
I think I could break 26 seconds if I could actually nail those stupid BR's. It's my pb so it should show on the leaderboards, if they update... still waiting for my #7 ranked time to show up for tdr< venom.
Only a 27.12 with 1 BR and 7SP's from me at the moment. Hopefully leaderboard will update
I have got it down to 25. something I can't remember exactly but it should be on the leaderboard.
Not at home this weekend so can't improve my time or check what it actually was! 8 pads and fury ship. 2 Barrel rolls.
so far: 25.49 - 8 pads
Ok guys, I'll check the leaderboard and update the times accordingly :)
not my fastest time so i'll take a pic/beat my pb :g
I'd like to have one last shot at this to break 26 before this week ends, but I just spent the last 9 1/2 hours at work, so it's doubtful I'm gonna be bothered :(
Week 5 has ended, and Week 6 has begun. A reminder: The criteria for this week are as follows: SPEED LAP/METROPIA (FORWARD)/PHANTOM/MIRAGE
Also those who participated last week, if the leaderboard doesn't update, would you be able to post a pic of your times? Many thanks :)
yeah i'll get a pic up as soon as i can. at work at the moment so i'll have to do it when i get home
Just had a quick run,
19.71 2BRs 9pds Mirage+
PB = 19.68
So i can better this, will post a pic when i do.:D
Edit, still can't barrel after the mag, but i've discovered you can double off the hill at the start an use your boost down the straight after the mag. Not as fast , but not far off.
My best is currently 19.92, 10 sp's with the Fury Mirage. I'd like to do better, but I keep on stuffing up whenever I do a section faster :(
I'll see if I can improve my time later. edit: Had another quick shot... 19.90, 9 sp's. yippee.
Only a 20.38 from me, 10 SP's. Will try to improve it though
19.41 - 10 pads - 1 BR - Mirage+
*See leaderboard (beat my Icaras PB in 7 laps :D)
Week 7 begins now - a big thanks to all that participated :) A reminder - the critria for this week are: SPEED LAP/TECH DE RA (REVERSE)/FLASH/HARIMAU
Can you use the Fury Version of the ship?
You would have to be able to because Tech De Ra is a FURY track.
Ok had a go at this.
0.29.23 - 8 speed pads - 3 BRs
Still nearly a second down :mad:
hi i just had a quick try,
0.29.01 8 speedpads 4 BRs ,
is your 3rd barrel roll on the last corner kgb or using lip, i have not managed last corner on any class yet lol
29.68 with 7 pads & 3 BR's .
I'm concentrating but my left thumb won't oblige .
Yep you can use the original or fury ships in your attemptsQuote:

My thumb is wrecked by the way :-
Fastest way I've found is 6 BRs but I haven't tried to add one in on the last corner yet. will give it a go after work and let you know what i find...although the supreme extreme BR testing machine (:P) is leungbok so i won't claim to know all the BRs on this track :lol
story so far (all lips on the left btw :) )
1st lip BR
2nd mini-lip BR
3rd lip 2 BRs
2 up the hill with boost
maybe one on the last corner
:g
6!! FFS.
Is this your No2 time, not sure if I can improve on mine?
What's a BR worth time wise in Flash anyway?
EDIT: 0.29.11 - 8 pads - 5 BRs. with a better line inbetween the downhill three I could get it under 29 secs I think/hope.
just got 28.88 4BRs 8 Speedpads
I did from 1st to 3rd lip that time which is faster than 2nd to 3rd, just got to do all 3 lips i can see a new wr for some1, I managed to get 28.96 with only 3 brs and one was an attempt so i lost time trying,
To yelda to get the 2 brs on 3rd lip do you pitch nose up so u bounce (if that makes sense), and i take it you need velocity from 2 other lips, Well im going to get chilled and have another go,
So when are you guys doin the Modesto Challenge? im down ;)
