Whow, amazing times all of you :clap
Thanx Pheaton for the great advice. It gave me much more consistancy on the shortcut.
19.15 - 7p - 2br
For that last br, do you have to time it with the bounces? I've tried a million times, but lost only 15 million energy point. One time I saw that butt doing some kind of samba wiggle :hyper
Its strange if i just boost i cant beat my boostbr ghost, but i find it hard to get a line to go under wing if i do a brboost start. I did a single br under wing for my best time,
oh if you see someone online called internalbrain its me. Ive decided to try and platinum internal view, done airbrake 1 1st time, and zico in 4 laps,:) I tried this internally and got 3 brs 19.10,
@mietepiet just keep to the inside and ss, pitch up, may need to right airbrake in air, so long as u dont slow down too much taking corner should be alright
18.72 . 2 BR and 7 speed pads . Mirage fury
Only 0.01 behind my ghost , but i really dislike mirage ,so i'll try to improve with my ag-systems now :)
Yeldar is gone, Wotan is back ! :hyper
yep, that's terrific. Hope wowo won't be too much exhausted by his 700 kms by car to reach my bunker friday, feb. 19... I need him in good shape to rock this upcoming wipeout week-end! I only managed a 19.07 (fury ship, 2 brs, 6 pads) late in the tuesday night, after a 99 laps session. Don't think I'll try to improve that, I like the handling of this ship but it feels really weird to control it, I'm always turning more than necessary. And I suck at this game anyway lol.
Ahh I see now. Thank you. Now I can at least see where the extra second could come from. ^^
EDIT: After a 99-lap session, I got 19.03. I used the BR under wing technique but only managed to get one off there, and then a second one after the twisty bit.
Also in the Fury ship.
good times everyone, i spent another 99 laps trying to get all 4 brs to no avail, so hat's off to wotan, im pretty much working nxt 2 days so my final was 18.79
There are some phenomenal times this week D: I might give it one more shot this afternoon... I wish that stupid shortcut under the wing weren't an option lol
I can't improve on my time, so it looks like 18.91 is my final one for this week.
I did all I could to go sub 19, but last last corner didn't allow me :(
small improvemed to: 19.05 - 6p - 2br - fury

****!, forgot to update my time for the SL and TT, never mind they were both crap.
Cool, I think this is my favorite track :D. Not outstandingly good at it, but I could easily put in 100 laps on it and not be sick of it. (The Jedi mind tricks and subliminal messages must of worked) ;).
EDIT: 22.31 - 2BR - 10SP - FURY. I can manage the Boost/BR at the start on the slower speeds, not managed it yet on this.
im .05 behind you so far kjb, yep not managed to do brboost myself i think its the piranha 4 me as im sure i have done with icarus before. are you boosting over the like roof structure near end?
I have tried boosting at beginning of track I can get a 3xbr by boostin on first straight but still behind my challenge ghost by like .10. i can only manage 1 br on the right turn befor magstrip without a boost and sure i can do a double somehow, just gotta learn the pitch though as i think you have to pitch down then up on land to kinda bounce. Im pretty sure i have done on phantom or in online races with icarus on rapier
theres a br on first corner too but don't think its faster than a smooth line, i can get a nice line by extreme cutting and missing 1st speedpad
I posted a convoluted explanation regarding my approach to the track in the TT topic. My 21.93 Icaras time is a normal boost start, I gave up trying a boost-BR start and i'm doubting the benefits.
poor time, but wanna let ya know:
23.38 11 SPs 2 BRs Piranha Fury
Lol, it's gonna be close again :D
22.54 - 11p - 2br- fury
I was trying for a br @ the triple speedpad, with a left ss from the wall. It might be an advantage.
I was trying that the other day mate. It may be possible.:p
