Really? So what's changed? Had an epiphany there preacher man?;)
Trying to cut down, bad for the soul :nod
About what i know about the triple on metropia ;) :
_ You must shortcut a bit the right turn after the triple speedpad, only a little bit, if not, you'll respawn. So during you're performing the first BR, you must target the left corner (but here too, not too close to it !) it'll be easier to perform the 2nd BR than from the middle of the track, and also the third one will be easier with this line. about that 3rd BR you must target the middle of the magstrip, don't care of the double pad at the right, too risky to hit !
Not exactly mate, this line is a little bit slower (if you target the right hand side) and also, even if the double is perfectly doable like that, it's not guaranted for the third, because your ship will not land as far as necessary (on the void before landing on the magstrip) to BR.
Yeldar has a good line during his triple BR on the 4th lap of his tt video, me too on my speedlap vid with the feisar :P
I must be out of my mind...
Time:20.07
Speed Pads:10 Pads
Barrel Rolls:3 BRs
Ship Type:HD
I remembered doing the tri-BR,but I did not beat the above timing...
Got pulled down by the mag-strip for who knows how many times.
EDIT:
Time:19.77
Speed Pads:11 Pads
Barrel Rolls:3 BRs
Ship Type:HD
New time: 19.28 - 8SPs - 4BRs - Fury
20.29, 11 Speed Pads, 2 Barrel Rolls using the Fury.
Hi again everyone. ;3
Finaly found some time to make some time ;)
19.40 / 3 or 4 Br's / 8 sp / Feisar fury
Another week has come to a close - congratulations to yeldar for his victory, and an honourable mention to Leungbok and LurifaxFlux for being able to pull off the triple BR!
A big thanks to all who participated. I hope that this challenge helped you to improve your techniques and set some new personal bests - your names will all be added to the Hall of Fame thread.
The Speed Lap Challenge also welcomes its newest competitor - Nutcase:259 :g
This weeks challenge is as follows: SPEED LAP/MOA THERMA (FORWARD)/FLASH/TRIAKIS
Good luck everybody
Thanks :g This Speed Lap Seems a lot more do-able that the last one. what with all the barrel rolling shenanigans :lol
Not sure ! The fastest way for a good time on moa forward is a 4 BRs lap ! ;)
oh :redface: i can think of 2 :lol
Do I have this right?
1: BSB
2: Boost out of the tunnel
3: Last corner
4: Turning it into a double by landing some way that's really hard to replicate
I've never been able to pull off BSB on this track, I keep respawning. If it's not BSB that gets people times that are a second or so faster than mine, I don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Actually yeah, are we BSBing this or not?
A track i can play:) well a bit anyway..
can someone help me on this track..All i know how to do is the standard br at the last corner and a turbo br at the last corner that flys high over the start line..ive heard about the other br but have no idea how to do these...
thankyou :)

Moa forward method is Pirahpac's copyright ! ;)
I forgot to add - No BSB please :g
I had a try of this last night its possible to ecco br but i think best way is to do the line for a double br on last corner boost the 2nd br, you can end up nosediving into lap point sure theres a 3rd br this way, I have had opportunity 3 times but because of new television i have to readjust, keep forgetting to try br wen i hit the line. unfortunately cant record as i dont have 3d camera:P
@yeldar..leungbok
thx for posting video
first time for me to take an active part in the SL-challenge.
one full 99lap SL-session/flash/moaFWD;
29.97PL-10SS-9SP-4BR-TRIAKIS/HD
was an ok-lap, but i missed the last SP,
so i messed up the double-BR into finish :(
still global 4th
31.80 2br al pads and a few sideshifts here and there..
Where on earth did you get 4BRs from JF? :eek
BoostBR over the line perhaps? Must investigate :banzai
Edit: 29.77 - 8 Pads - 2BRs - Fury
@ yeldar:
maybe my previous post is a bit confusing?!
i did the double BR into finish, but it was the slowest version of it,
cause of the missed SP.
1.BR: after 1st mag-strip in the 180-turn-tunnel (maybe it's faster to skip this 1?)
2.BR: turbo after 1st BR, cut left corner, BR
3.+4.BR: double BR into finish
i tried the other turbo-spot in the last 20laps of the session,
to "investigate" if it's faster, but no success :(
but i found "something" by accident. a maybe new BR!
turbo after the S-corner, fly over the 2nd mag-strip,
do BR and land it on the mag-strip-wall (no mag-effect),
bounce back on track do BR :)
Ahh I though it might be the one after the Mag-loop.
Anyway: 29.56 - 8 Pads - 3BRs - Fury
I have a dream of 7 BR heaven on Moa
- BoostBR into the lap
- BR into tunnel after mag-lop
- Shortcut BoostBR
- Land on wall for another BR
- 3x BR on last corner
Possible? Maybe not, but it would be awesome :rock
triple BR? last corner? how? i've no idea.
btw. turbo-BR into lap can be doubled, so 8BR- maybe 9BR-lap is possible :D
i have to do a few sessions with my beloved piranha
30.36 / 8 SP / 3 BR / Fury
31.76
9 speed pads
1 barrel roll
fury
Manged to hit the inside of turn 1. miss the barrel roll out of the tunnel. hit the inside of the last turn whilst BR'ing onto the speed pad and somehow in the confusion glanced the start finish wall :lol any points for them?
just need to iron out the many kinks now :D
31.24 - 8SPs - 2BRs - Fury
Too bored to try harder, sorry :g
30.71, 7SP's, 2BR's.
Gonna try and work on this one a bit more this week.
Welcome aboard JF :g
31.47 all pads and one piraphac style turbo br to finish
can someone help me please...
when i do the the turbo br pirphac style over the start line it always seems slower than a turbo start and i never hit anything so what am i doing wrong.
i can also do the turbo br off of the pad out the tunnel but again it slows me down.
why am i so slow compared to everyone else..
Jasmin - I use a normal boost at the start and just take the corner sharply.
As for the boost BR in the tunnel, I turn left straight after hitting the pad, put the ships nose up and boost.
31.48 - 9SP - 2BR - Fury
I tried playing online last night and was failing miserably (Woopzilla was in most of the races, I rage quit a couple times even becvause I Was just so frustrated lol :P )
I don't know how much I can whittle this down further (read: I have other things to do hahaha)
improved!!
31.02
9SP
2BR's
Fury
maybe just a little tighter line in the 1st corner.
If i can learn to cut that corner better [corner after the tunnel], i may be able to string somemore laps together :D
30.57 / 2 br's / 8 sp / fury
New time - 30.49 / 2 br's / 8 sp / fury
Never took part to this challenge before, so I decided to take a shot. Managed to get 31.07 with Fury ship. There was total of 8 SPs and two BRs.
I had a small session last night and here's my late entry:
30.24 9SP 2BR (missed last BR) Triakis Fury
Week 48 has come to a close. Congratulations to yeldar for his victory this week and a warm welcome to our newest competitors, JFthebestJan and miizu3 :)

As some of you may know, I let regular participants of the challenge choose what they would like to see for the week. So, without further ado, I present this weeks challenge, as chosen by LurifaxFlux:
SPEED LAP/THE AMPHISEUM (REVERSE)/PHANTOM/GOTEKI 45
Good luck everybody
Sweet love Amphesium reverse :g as for Goteki 45... well i like the design and the colours :D, bit slow though (although that could be the pilots fault :lol)
