What is the fastest track in the game in your opinion? I cant stop to be amazed how perfectly some tracks are designed and any detail on it is so considered. And that all allows you not to race on the track but just fly by over it

Yeah, I think the tracks in Pulse are really well thought out too (and look great). I used to get annoyed by all the respawns, but now I'm starting to learn to avoid those sections of the tracks.
The fastest tracks to me are Vertica Black, which has the sets of 3 speed pads at the end, and Fort Gale White, which has the chain of BRs. By fastest, I mean tracks where I feel I'm reaching the highest speed at some point.
Orcus White from the DLC packs is also another really fast track.
What about Metropia W? There is a great boost in the middle of the track with Turbo+BR in the end. Speedpads are actually almost unnecessary there
And Tech de Ra B is also hi-speed track
The turbo-BR at the end of Met W is very fast yes, but that long uphill left turn is a bit slow, and spoils the track for me.
I wouldn't know about Tech B. I'm so bad on it, I can't bring myself to practice it.
The Outpost 7 White - narrow, tight, simply fast.
Basilico White - same reasons.
Moa Therma... FTW (lol)
Gotta Love Moa, but the fact is the faster track is actually Vertica, which is a fully sik track, that i love.
Thing is - I love them all coz they are all fast - barring 07, with its hairpins which make you lose the utmost speed mate!!
Vertica B and W are faaasst!!! Agreed!
The shortest is basilico, but the fastest... maybe fort gale or vertica.
de Konstruct White have just one real turn, the first.
Basilco W IMO
I vote Vertica, both ways. It feels like a track designed for speed. Same as The Amphiseum.
Figures and statistics have spoken. Orcus Black is the fastest track on WipEout Pulse.
I've taken all Mad-Ice's TT records on the WipEout Zone board, and calculated the speed average.
I don't know how you did those calculations, but am glad you did. The list is an eye opener for sure!
... and seeing Metropia White up there as the 2nd fastest track, brings a smile to my face, Metropia White happens to be my most favourite track.
Thanks for taking the time out to do this Kaori.

okay speed feeling inside gaming expirience is a strange thing! Most of peeps here said that Vertica is the fastest track... So this meaning is very subjective. Vertica is on the 15th place only!
Thank you kaori for your calculations! But all distances and speed are virtual so here we can speak only about artificial speed feellings

Of course this calculations don't take into account shortcuts... Look Arc Prime Black in 3rd position, this track seems to be longer that white version, but if you shortcut the chicane, they have the same lenght and you "cheat" on the speed average.
Shortcut the chicane on Arch Slime Crack? Where?
I fail badly on that track, and need to know! Please do tell.
Sorry for going slightly offtopic.
look at my video of speedlaps on the black tracks of pulse ps2
