Interesting tag at the bottom, never knew you had a pub Yeldar, what's it called 'The Red Dragon'? By the sounds of it you have more than one, well done. :)
Mmmm i never noticed this challenge..now i underatand why all my top 100 records have now became top 1 million records cos all the players are focusing on this challenge and getting super fast on the speed laps and trials..sound like fun ..i think i will have a go at this..:nod
edit
just tried it out
maybe not to fast but im very proud of it as its ny new personal best and it is in ship i dont use
22.40 2 br not sure about pads think i missed two at the end of the track..
maybe i can better my time b4 challenge ends..
Ah, that's my line (I invented it) and I'm so proud someone else (actually, Yeldy) used it :D
For that, I'll indulge you and have a go at this SL and TT tomorrow man, (well today, it's rather early/late/not slept yet :redface:) just so you can have a good laugh :D
Welcome aboard Jasmin :+
Hmm, I appear to be getting my 1st BR at a different location than everyone else.
1st BR: The VERY last lip just before the double speed pads. Normally I just hit the fence section, but if I approach it correctly, it propels me forward. No sideshift required.
2nd BR: Boost BR at tunnel section
3rd BR: Coming out of the tunnel section.
Think I'll try the other method and see how I get on.
This weeks challenge has come to an end. Congratulations to yeldar for his victory, and to everyone who competed. A very warm welcome to Jasmin also. All names will be added to the Hall of Fame thread.
This weeks challenge is as follows: SPEED LAP/SOL 2 (FORWARD)/FLASH/ASSEGAI
Good luck all.
Not the bloody 'under the wing' thing again :) Never mind, third time lucky maybe.
EDIT: I see someone has changed the tag as well. They obviously know him intimately.
Wasn't here for some time, but... I'm back! ;)
25.03 / A.s.s. fury / 2 br / 7 sp
Speed Lap > Sol 2 Forward > Flash > Assegai Fury
00.27.33, 7 Speed Pads, 1 Barrel Roll
What's with these tags? :dizzy
yeldar2097: 24.15 - 8 Pads - 3BRs - Fury
fantmusik: 25.56 - 7 Pads - 2BRs - Fury
:lol at the new tags. I'll give this a go tomorrow.
I remember racing fantmusik recently - he's pretty good.
Damn you!! :g
Im at 24.17 - 8 pads - 4brs.
Would have cleared the 23 barrier on lap 92 if i didnt mess up with the last br horribly...
edit:
Yeeeeaaaahhh! 23.89! 7pads - 4brs - FURY.
Bit sloppy over the bridge so clearly more time to be had there (will no doubt be needed when yeldar see's that he's not winning :)) Though saying that im slightly concerned at seeing 2 assagai times higher than mine in the leaderboard :g
Also my brothers here and he's got-
Mr-Phlanj - 24.55 - 8pads - 3brs - FURY
I got 24.55 as well with 3BR and 7 pads Fury. After finally getting the two from going under the wing I cocked up the last BR off the hairpin thing :brickwall.
23.66 - 8 Pads - 3BRs - Fury
Your turn Haydn :banzai
DAMN YOU!!! :beer
where do you do your 3brs??? I feel like im missing something.
1. BoostBR over line
2. BoostBR under wing (can't do the double)
3. BR after the long right-hander
:)
Edit: 23.57 - 8 Pads - 3BRs - Fury
The doubles very difficult at this speed (a double boosting under the wing at least).
Nope, your doing exactly what im doing. Was trying to jump the 1st corner with the boost, but cant quite manage it, either clip the wall and respawn. Not sure if its actually doable to be honest.
...... to the ps3!! :beer
24.14 4brs 6 speedpads
what's world rec for this track then bar the glitches?
Not been on for a while so bloody well chuffed I'm .02 behind yelda before it updates again lol. Only took 20 laps if you need help doing double br ag wolf did I Picasso pic it well helps(in this thread somewhere lol)
23.39 according to Connavar's site.
I suppose if done well the double would be awesome but I didn't have much trouble beating my 24.12 (with double) without using the double.
I say without using, what I really mean is that I can't do it :lol
So far I'm up to 24.87, 7SP's, 2BR's. I messed up the boost BR at the start but had a perfect attempt under the wing. I reckon I could get somewhere near KGB and Phlanj's time if I can chain it all together in one lap.
who uses the tag "sol is glitched" cos they got world record of sol forward on flash speed class with a really really fast time....
I think that's pirhapac (?) demonstrating that Sol 2 is indeed glitched.
23.99 - 3BR - 7SP - Fury
My goal was sub 24 and I barely got it after around 40 laps :). I think I can do the bit under the wing faster as I seem to get too much air ATM, maybe a lucky double BR next time.
23.72 - 8pads - 4brs - FURY.
Starting to get painfully hard to improve for me now.... the double br needs to be immaculate.
Though having said that, despite a br less yeldars still considerably faster than me :frown:
edit:
23.53 8pads 4brs FURY
Your turn Gareth :beer
23.48 - 8 Pads - 4BRs - Fury
Finally got that evil double going :g
Cant you just give it up please :)
Im trying to clean my house, now ive been forced to go back to the ps3 :beer
24.24 - 3br - 7sp :D
thats me done until next time :D
I imroved my time:
24.51 / 3 br's / 8 pads / A.s.s fury
And there is another way to get double br -> SS left from first wall in open section (on right side of track), br, landing on/or near middle sp, SS right with nose up and 2nd br.
Is not so fast as double under the wing, but is possible ;)
Yes, I know, everybody knows about this ;)
Fixed a few details and got a 23.87 with 3BRs still.
I've done the double BR now many times and am convinced it's not lucky just very tough to pull off (especially consistently on a TT, yikes!). Whenever I do it it's either sloppy and slower than my ghost or when it's clean and I always mess up somewhere on the second part of the track :redface:. I swear I was on the way to a 23.6x/23.7x then totally borked the last BR! :frown:
I see 23.89 for you on the in game tables?
That was me before i logged in as myself :)
yer it happens alot when i play.
on lap 89
ME: "woohoo!! i got a 24.24!!!"
restart session with haydn on the controler
HAYDN: "look kieran i beat your time on lap 7 :P"
......damit
and always a pleasant feeling it is too :beer
glad your beating fantamusik, yeldars prodigy vs my little bro! :g
Not that it really makes any difference to the leaderboard, but I got a 27:03 with the HD Assegai.
speed lap challenge way too hard for the likes of me...:frown:
25.15 7pads and 3 br's
i hate the br under the wing cos computer reswarns you even though you kow you could make the jump easily..
maybe i get better on next track........
gave it a shot, Fury ship, 2 BR's... I lasted all of 13 laps before I sarted to fall asleep LOL. Going online to keep stimulated ;)
Improved my time to 24.61, 9 8SP's, 3BR's.
EDIT: Just realised that I won't be around tomorrow to update the thread, so I'll post the challenge now. A great turn out this week :cowboy
SPEED LAP/TALON'S JUNCTION (FORWARD)/VENOM/EG-X
I'll update the stuff when I get back :)
ill try that later, congrats yeldar :+, in the few attempts i had, i just couldnt squeeze those 2 tenths of a second.... not really surprising tbh :beer
Got 40 or so laps in just now, thanks for warning us Phantom. ;3 Also thanks for picking a fairly idiot-friendly track for useless clots like me. :D
Speed Lap > Venom > Talon's Junction Forward > EG-X (HD)
0.35.38, 13 Speed Pads, 1 Barrel Roll, Perfect Lap
Ok, tried this one just now - my patience is really running thin. This time round, only 6 laps before I stifled my first yawn LOL, no joke... guys, in future I think I'm gonna give the SL and TT challenges a miss.
Anyway, here's the evidence of my epic crappiness :g
Fury EG-X, 1 BR 12 Speed Pads.. meh... pic attached for the time :paperbag which was 35:16
