The Speed Lap Challenge

20.23 = 6 BRs, some mistakes, no bsb. I'll try to catch you yeldar ! It'll be damn hard, grrr ! ;)

BSB isn't even possible any more is it?? (except for Pih's sneaky BSB from the video perhaps....?)

I was so frustrated last night, I got 20.06 (same as my old record) but I missed EVERY pad on the last turn...:(

Ah the joys of speed lap :lol

No, bsb isn't possible since fury release. Pih's trick is not a bsb, it's more a twisted boost/br. Another stuff i can't perform, like his boost/br-br on sol 2 :bomb

I can only manage 21.07 with 5 BR's. I can get the 6th one but can't seem to chain it all together in one lap

I've only got 20.91 I think it is; while I haven't had that much of an effort compared to usual, it's still pretty tough to get faster, although I think I missed an easy BR on my best run and a couple of pads... must've done pretty well elsewhere on the track :P

I thought i had an idea but realised it was impossible,

best time 20.49 icarus hd 5 brs,
why is it that it feels more stable than fury at phantom,

Hi guys, just to let you know that I will be away until Thursday evening as I'm staying with a mate of mine in London for a few days. The challenge will still go on, and I'll update the leaderboard when I get back.

This weeks challenge finishes on Monday, 7.15pm GMT.

Seeing as I won't be here to announce the next one, I'll do it now:

SPEED LAP/THE AMPHISEUM (REVERSE)/RAPIER/PIRANHA

Thanks guys

28.66 10 speed pads 2 br's
I told a couple of mates to try the Amphesium SL + TT who both promptly beat my time.:paperbag

26.95 - 10 pads - 3 BRs

27.71, 10 pads, 3 br's, fury ship

could fix it up a little, but I think I need to learn that double br before the magstrip...

It's good if you do it but I've never managed to mix it in with a decent lap - requires far too much concentration :P

Actually I thought you did the double there for your time for some reason, looked again and it said 3 br's.

seems like that "some fixing up" is a little more than "some" :(

new time 27.34 7 brs 9 speedpads xD
btw the 3xbr at beggining if u could do consistent you are probably looking at new tt wr, i easily got a 1.56 without the brs but diffrent route, no window shortcut

Didn't have a lot of time last week, so I have tried a bit harder to find the time this week.

27.93 - 3 BRs - HD ship. Did have a previous best with 4 BRs but beat it with this. Out of interest what line is everyone using for the hairpin. Stay out wide then turn in or stay on the same line as the SP and drift out wide the other side of the corner. Can't decide which is best.

I sideshift right on the single pad just before the pin, then turn in early and end up in line with the double pads after the hairpin :)

Well that must be the best way then. cheers. :+ I had visions of you sideshifting all over the place.

27.54 - 9 SP - 3 BR - Fury Fish

Will try to improve upon. This time is missing the speed pad after the first BR opportunity and the BR before the mag strip. I did that BR a few times but need to practice it more. Thinking this will gain me around 0.3s...?

Should do yeah, all depends how you take it though. I just go for a tasty little right sideshift to get enough air :P

Yeah KGB I don't sideshift as much as some people. Forgot to mention the SS at the apex of the hairpin though, that's an important one :D

sorry i lied, i didn't get 7 brs on my best run i just got 5 i think, im uploading a video with the 7 though, its not beat my time though because wasnt the best lap

amphisium reverse 7 brs

i must of beat the 7x by just boostin at start, its a hard turn though.

Nice video brainbeat, I just had a session and couldn't pull that kind of start off at all...

still, 27.38, just behind you with 3 BR's :P

I also can't pull off the double at the magstrip, which is really really frustrating! It seems to be the key for really opening up my time now. I could only shave maybe up to .2-.3 I think further with my current method with 3 br's, at the most.
