Hi All
I mean to ask where launch the boost and where to make the better BR....
because to know it he is substantial in order to survive in phantom on this track ;)
for now i launch the boost out of the second tunnel and make only a br on the first fracture/jump after the start....and i make 2.21.....sigh...where is the light/tip? :( :D

Hi Alterego, hi all!
Asa and i are using three BRs per lap with Goteki45. First one after the first corner on the first fracturejump. The second one in the tunnel after hitting the two BPs on the left and the third BR after taking the speedboost on the second fracturejump into the hard curve to the left. You can always try to do a fourth BR directly after the second BR i just describe before, if you are having enough energy. I hope you are understanding me and that you will beat your records and not mine!!!!! Joking, good luck!
Hi All.
Thank you mad ice for the tips i'm trying to apply them as soon as I have time to try again.
And now in order it makes you to laugh.... :D
Here the photos of the first encounter of italian contests wireless between the nik and alterego.

great photos, nice to put faces to the Italian team. :D
Absolutely brilliant stuff! Looks like you having a rare time there!
stevie:D :+
Thx for sharing this mate : those 2 pics are brilliant and like Lunar said it's cool to see your faces :D
MAd ( the thin) & me ( the large ;) ) will soon put on some pics too :)
Thanks for your smile, mates :D
Alterego is a great boy, he drives fast everytime he run, not like me.
Just on Chengou I announced: "sorry Rom, but this is my favourite track, eh eh... :banzai "
Ready.......GO! and me.....started like a... turtle! = 6 secs over alterego's time.
The same one week ago with a friend of mine (he know wipeout on PS2 and he's really fast there), that I want to bring on the top of wiping pure: he's already on venom, but we meet and race together. Every time I win with 15-20 secs.
On chengou I adviced him: this is my track guy! Well...the only one race he beat me!!!
Hi Asa,hi all
...mmmh i've an idea for a new team....ih ih ihQuote:

No, I don't have the long hair right now, that was back in August 2006. Vital stat: 125 pounds/56.8 kilos (very good for piloting lightweight/low mass anti-gravity ships or racing motorcycles.

may you post a pic just a little bit larger?
So we can see ... something :D

I don't forget the TT report but been busy after MAd-Ice quit home on sunday , preparing my interview i got today in Paris early in the morning which was the 2nd step for getting a new job , finally after going back to Le havre , they asked me to have a final rendez-vous to really be sure they wanted me so i took the train again and get that last appointment ( 7 hours spent into trains / tubes / buses today) : the result of this is positive , i am starting on wednesday morning for 4 months at Anthony's office : héhéh i will work with my famous Mate Anthony aka Sleh aka DAG !
So here's the quick report from TT challenge , i will add comments later eventually.
Vohl SquarePhantom---------------------- Sunday Report
6 wipers for that 1st challenge from 2007.

Paris Hair Rapier -------------------------- WEEK 14
On heavyweight ships, pilot size doesn't matter. A Qirex will never notice a difference of a hundred pounds. Or even 200 pounds!
----
il-NIK, there were more than 70 people in the original pic; none of them got enough pixels to keep a zoom-in from breaking up the pic.
But this does explain why Arnaud`s AGS was bottoming out so much on kai last week - must have been the super-size portion at Burgerland ;)
Congratulations on your new job, Arnaud :+ Hope that goes well. I think you used to work with Antho before in your early 2097 days.
Awesome Vohl Squares from everyone, too.
Hi Asa, hi all.

GOOD JOB ASAYYEAH :nod
New year, new ship. Like all of you (except insertcoin) I choose Goteki (bleah, it's really ugly) for the challenge, so we can race on the same ship with real confrontation.
men...at work!
:g
Thx guys :)
yes, Stephen , i ve worked with Anthony during 5 years , we were in the same insurance Companie : that should be a good moment during those next 4 months .
Talking about the last challenge , i found a real new way of improving laptime
That 6th BR is very hard to get cause you can BR and don't have the boost, so i found a new way of getting : very differently :Quote:

the tip is to cut this bend a little to be able to land on the small platform ( left part of the jump ) : 1st benefit is : no bottoming out before the jump & also when landind after jumping from the platform. I discovered that having a good speed before that 'cut' may get you enough high to allow a BR on the platform ( the boost you get starts on the platform not in the air after the jump : this is the big difference): so you get the boost & the line to the finish is way too easy now.
héhéh Not yet Paris Hair lover here !!
Rita Linsley will be sad ;)
Hi All.
ok! Paris Hair is too coloured for my eyes, but i start the challenge with Goteki as usual... :D

I absolutely retch at the sight of Paris Hair. :- Sorry Rita.
But nonetheless, I'll give it a go... later...
:+ to Paris Hair from me, crazy and amazing art design, perhaps the best of the Omegas for this. I love the idea of the stars on the track surface, and the audio is great, especially the mocking laughter. In terms of track design it`s brilliant too - if it was a city centre track it would be the the track Citta Nuova should have been, if that wasn`t such a disaster. Paris Hair has really interesting corners - particularly the gutsy tight one before the jump that requires you to time it as close as you dare, and the first two long left handers that are quite deceptive, in that you have to hit the apex very deep, and are very similar to the long left at the bottom of the hill on Modesto.
anyway enough about that, I brought out the Burgertown ship for my run on this challenge and my times are:
Turboweevil: 1.58.23/28.58
I'm agree with you. Paris is an undervalued track.Just one week ago I hate this track like many others, but forced to race it by the challenge, I'd learn to love it. There are several tails of track that are hard to race. First the central boostpad after the startline combined with the left bend and the consequential boost before the little hill. This is one of the key-moment. I race this tail of track in several various ways: I think there isn't the right way.Quote:

A question to AZAY:
How do you race your record TT with Triakis on Paris? Any BR? How? Where?
Hi Master :cowboy
Hi everyone :)
Nicola i am racing Paris with 2BR the 1st one near the start, top of the hill, and 2nd at the jump , using turbo right after the split ( going on the right side ). I am not particularly convinced by my technique on Paris as a matter of fact i saw you did an impressive triakis laptime : congrats mate : did you do something different?
Sorry not being present here for giving my score but here's my duty atm :
Ag SYS
30.04 - 29.73 - 29.35 - 29.48 = 1.58.60
28.68
Bloody hell i must admit you kick my arse for only 1 hundredth :mr-t , that's not nice :naughty , you will pay for this in MArch at Dam's convention :banzai
:p
Yes, Arnaud, I pay attention to do not the BR on the first little hill, I think this isn't a good BR for the laptime, then I give the turbo on the last rectilinear tail of the track before last grat hill.Quote:

Good racing on Paris Hair, guys! :clap I did not come close to the fight, but I'm happy for the progress I had during my second session.
I know there have been discussions concerning processor speeds, but I did not find an answer (quick enough) to the following: What restriction, if any, is there on processor speed?
Happy climbing! :D
I believe we have an unofficial gentleman`s agreement that it`s ok to compete for times at 266mhz, because this is a speed provided in an official Sony firmware upgrade (firmware 3.0 and higher), but 333mhz times should not be entered. This is entirely unofficial though. None of us in this challenge were racing on higher than 266. :)
btw congrats to the Mad-man for a really clean TT. :rock
i agree with Lunar, no 333 allowed

Here's a tip in case of ... i get the turbo weapon after the long descending straight line, more exactly when the track starts goes up on that right bend : get a BR into the air and you can land near the mini jump after the chicanes.
You should also multi-tap on nose down, this is a good thing to avoid the extreme floatiness of that track.
Nose-down, 333, what are these?
Ok, I know what's a nose-down while racing, but I've not the ability to do it. :frown:
But, 333? :?
Are there someone cracking PSP? :cold :frown: :mad: :bomb

Unofficial Triakis:
RR: 2.14.31
LR: 0.25.87
I think it`s more useful than ever to have a ship with good acceleration on this track, for picking up out of all those slow corners. But I think Goteki is just too floaty, meaning it gets too much height, and too unstable to be totally effective on Sebenco Climb, unless you can use it to get the BR at the top of the big downhill. But maybe the other ships can do this too. G45 is probably the second fastest ship on a lot of tracks, but I think the more stable AGS and Assegai ships could be a better choice than G45 here, but I could be wrong. And then Goteki has a lot of BRs in the tank.... hmmm. I`m not going to race with the Weevil - he only comes out for Omega tracks. ;)
Thanks for the answers. :+ I stayed on 222 earlier to be sure... 266 here I come! :robot
AAAARGHHHHH :brickwall
...it's much time I don't upgrade my psp, I'm still at 2.80 or similar, it's from 266 that we have more speed...or what?
Is there someone can teach me?
Don`t expect amazing things when you upgrade to 3.0X. The only tracks I`m fairly sure are faster on 3.0X are Sagarmatha and Manor Top, which always had a bad framerate and were stuttery. On these I beat my old vector and venom ghosts easily, without playing particularly well. My ship was just faster on 3.01/266. I got a 20.8 phantom lap of Sagarmatha, with a wall hit and a couple of missed speed pads!
But I haven`t seen any difference on other tracks, though I haven`t played my usual amount since upgrading. On most tracks, easily the majority of them, I`m sure there is really no measurable difference in TT. But you might as well upgrade and see what you think. :)
