The annoying thing is when you see your maxed out list of cancelled laps with one okayed decent time, then log onto wipeoutzone only to see yeldar get a top 10 time on his second or third lap -_-
Got lucky I think. I did about 10-15 more laps in a separate session afterwards but couldn't beat the bugger. :brickwall
I dislike anyone who used Fury EG-X, If you did, How could you....
I had to right a few wrongs and beat my EG-X Fury time with EG-X HD ;)
21.30 - 12 Pads - 4BRs - EG-X HD
:g
Edit: Gah only 0.03 from Phaeton's WR. GrrrBrrr :bat
Gonna have to give this a quick go tomorrow, not had much time at all :(
I checked the awesome times this week and i thought that SL challenge wouldn't be complete this week without a mediocre time in it, so i gave this a quick go. :lol
23.51 / 12 SP / 3 BR / EG-X HD
Another week has come to a close. Congratulations to yeldar for his victory this week and thanks to all who participated. All names will be added to the Hall of Fame Thread.
As many of you know, there has been a lot of talk recently about a certain speed glitch which has been exposed. I would like to think that everybody who participates in this challenge does so as a way of improving their skills and will not resort to such measures.
This weeks challenge is as follows: SPEED LAP/MODESTO HEIGHTS (REVERSE)/FLASH/HARIMAUQuote:

Edit: Does anyone know if you can film using a PS-Eye connected to a PC? I haven't tried yet but if it's possible then I can film it :)
depends if you have the softwares able to detect it i suppose !
I did this just today by shear coincidence. It works, but so far have had no time to try and get audio working. This is assuming it's the PS-eye for PS3. Otherwise I dunno.

24.94 - 16 sp - 6 BRs - fury
Crappy lap and miles from Yeldar :bomb but at 0.04 from my icaras time, so i'm satisfied with that :D

Great video leung and far from crappy! :)
I just did my time with the simple method and managed:
26.25 / 21 SP / 1 BR / Harimau Fury
24.88 - 20 pads - 4 BR's - Fury
Will give it another shot later :)
24:92... you can get 2 more BR's on the last hill but I didn't want to risk what was a good lap :(
Ok, after a long break I'm back into beating phaeton's times : *
24.84 - 19 pads - 5brs - Fury (using leungbok's method without first doubleBR :paperbag)
Boards aren't updating atm? I thought it was a bit weird when it said I had the 3rd ranked time with just 24.89... Can do better, especially if I can pull off that BR that bypasses the magstrip (only done it twice so far, and both results were horribly awry)... Will have another shot later
Gahhhh, already 5 people in front of me on that challenge on one of my favorite tracks ! :bomb
I hate you guys, i have no time for that atm ! :blarg
I'll try another shot, lol.
Nice times everybody, except Yeldar who's a cheater as anyone knows ! :p
24.79 - 5br - 20sp - Fury
24.13 - 19 Pads - 5BRs - Harimau+
Can't record, I can upload the ghost if you like though.
Nice one Yeldar!
24.46 - 18 Pads - 5 BR's - Fury :D
I didn't been here for a while ;)
24.86 / 5 br's / 19(?)sp / hari F
24.42 - 5br - 19sp - Fury :)
Week 70 (wow) has come to a close. Congratulations to yeldar and a big thanks to all who participated this week - you've all got some really impressive times.
As usual, all names will be added to the Hall of Fame Thread.
This weeks challenge is as follows:
SPEED LAP/VINETA K (FORWARD)/PHANTOM/ASSEGAI <--- NO BSB!!
No BSB :+
17.58 - 9 Pads - 7BRs - Assagai+
17.90 - 9 pads - Assegai+ - no BSB. I don't have the picture, but I can probably
improve a bit in the coming days :)
Also decided to try the BSB Icaras and improved my PB :)
17.77 - 9 pads - 7 BRs - Assegai HD
The thing with this track is, you know you can do so much better, it's just tricky to get it all spot on in 1 lap.
I don't know how you get so fast times guys, i tried about 40 laps and my time is so embarrasing that i won't post it... lol
Same with me - I got 8brs, 6 pads and I'm still slightly over 18 secs. :paperbag
When/where exactly do you guys use boost from previous lap?
Just before the finish line.
17.72 - 9 pads - 7 BRs - Assegai Fury
:( Still far away
:pirate
18.22, ??SP's, 7BR's. I'm guessing that the boost is the key here - I just can't seem to land it the right way and it's costing me time.
Don't try to cut the corner or anything like that. Don't even try to get near the apex. Boost low and slightly to the right, then a/b back in to the corner once you're at/past the apex and you should be able to get the 2nd BR without too much bounce.
Just a tippie :)
18.11 - 7sp - 7br - fury
>.<
*grins* Trust me DE, can't be as bad as me. After about 60 laps, my best effort was 19.28, Assegai HD, 6 SPs, 3 BRs.
Tried the Fury variant, but it was more difficult to pull off the rolls with that one...
19.15, Assegai fury ship. I lift my ship up at start of the lap but don't get any air for a BR. Dunno how you do it.
Don't nose up at the very start, just boost over the line normally. After that, use your new boost on/near the first speedpad with a little nose up. If all goes well you'll be flying :g
Just tried it. ^^
19.08, 8 SPs, 5BRs, HD 'segai.
17.84 / 7br / 7sp / Fury :paperbag
