The Speed Lap Challenge

20.11 - 6 BR's - 13 Pads - Fury Ship

I wasn't racing AP since i got 20.14 couple of weeks ago and i found my ghost bugged. Today i found some spare time and here i am :)

I made a small improvement a few days ago, forgot to post: 20.23 - 14SP - 5BR - HD

DP_89 you missed Hellfire's time :sonar

2 people tried the TT challenge this week :lol:frown:

I think Rezatron meant phaeton's time, not Hellfire? Big congrats to Yeldar & OBH for their alien times by the way, I did my best but really couldn't improve mine.

phaeton - There's a 6th BR?

Rezatron - Hellfire doesn't have a time - unless you meant phaeton as kanar said?

@ Dark Phantom
That 6'th BR is Leungbok's "Boost BR start"

It's in my last AP video

Yeah phaeton that's what I tried to do myself at the end in order to beat my 20.11, but failed miserably... If it's perfectly executed I think a sub is possible, but it's a real pain in the a** to chain everything in one alien lap. Speaking of alien, Yeldar you should try it, as you're already flawless with 5 brs on that track.

Oh no, I can beat it with 5BRs...I MUST!

:paperbag

...

Actually it's because I can't do the boostBR at the start :paperbag . I can do the pseudo-BSB start but I don't really like it and 80% of the time normal boost is faster for me.

I love the awesome times people are producing this week :rock

--> Let's all cross the sub 20.00 finish line together :g

Ahh, I didn't think of doing the boost BR. Saw your video phaeton - very impressive, don't think I could do the boost BR anyway.

Nose down -> nose up -> boost -> BR -> SS while landing :D

I can do boost BR at the start with 80% success ratio but it gives me an advantage in only 30% of try. Double BR on the overpass gives more advantage but i don't think i will ever be able to do them all in one lap.

I think the key to sub 20 is on the long left hander just before the overpass. 19.xx can be done without that extra BR for sure. With all those crazy BR's 19.70 maybe 19.65 is possible. Good luck Yeldar :+

Congrats guys, you are all winners!

BoostBR --> BoostBRBR --> 2xBR in tunnel --> BR on left-hander --> 2xBR on overpass -> BR off overpass --> o_O

Hey, ho; let's go :rock

Absolutely amazing times this week everyone, really high up on the Global Leaderboards. Your names will be added to the Hall of Fame thread :rock

This week's criteria is as follows: SPEED LAP/MOA THERMA(FORWARD)/VENOM/FEISAR

That's if anybody can actually get to play HD this week due to the PSN situation... :bomb

Cool, I will finally try and learn that shortcut. :D

oh god, Venom? I'll grow old before I finish three laps (of course, providing my PS3 magically decides to work again lol)

Just had a quick run (22 laps), got 34.41, 9 pads, fury feisar; have a fair bit of room for improvement. Will see if I can muster the effort to go through 35+ second average laps later :p
At least it's better than phantom, I can actually post halfway decent times this week! :lol

Where is everyone using the boost? I'm using it at the end but I think it's giving me too much air time.

Shortcut boosty is besty. Or did you mean where in the shortcut?

Mine mine mine!! :g:beer

I've got 34.43 - 2BR - 9pads - Fury.

Best to use the boost after the tunnel. As you come out, boost and jump over the corner with varying degrees of success like me :lol. Just need that bit of luck to get a third BR at the end.

34.23 - 2 BRs, 9 Pads, FURY
Reckon theres another tenth and a bit to knock off with slightly tighter lines, and if i could ever pull off the double br...... even just once....

Anyone else find Moa has real problems with boosting over the line?? Swear 4 out of 5 times i clearly havnt started a new lap yet i dont get a new boost.

edit:
hmm the current wr is 33.2 something. Maybe theres more time to be squeezed out of this lap that i thought....

I'm getting that to Haydn. I don't realize until I get to the shortcut and just fly into the wall.
