    Don't boost till u start to drop then keep you nose down, u should bounce then, works 1 in 8 laps for me lol,

    whenever I managed to bounce I couldn't do a BR out of it, or it was so out of line it wasn't worth doing anything with

    any hints on how to do the double br at the mag though? I never seem to have enough room to do the second, doesn't matter if I land on the near or far side of the track.

    the double br is a bit easier for me if im more on the lefthandside than the middle, just gotta pitch up a little,

    Hmm, nice BRs although I think it may be faster to just boost over the line normally and then BR off the first speed pad - less bounce, more speed

    Well I haven't incorporated the 1st BR into a lap yet, only managed it once. Definately worth a bit of time though

    new time: 27.00 even - 9 SP - 4 BR - Fury

    I can only pull of the first BR while on the right side of the track so i'm missing a speed pad. Did the double BR on the mag maybe twice in 64 laps but it was terribly executed.

    27.84 - 7pads - 3br

    Nice to see all them fish in the top 10

    I'm having big trouble with the first long right-hander. I hit the apex at the start and end, I ss at the start and on the sp at exit, but most of the times this results in missing the double sp, because the ss's are to close to eachother. anybody got any tips?

    btw I also give up that sp for the 1st br

    Hey Deep, nice time, but the scavenger Leungbok beat it (26.79) using Icaras.

    He reads this thread, does not participate, and trys to beat all the times using the classic SL ship. Meh, kinda smart I guess as you don't "waste" your time using an "inferior" ship.

    Yeah, off course i read this thread, i already posted in it (i even made some videos to show methods like chengou venom) !
    When i see the impressive times that you guys are able to perform with any ship, i think "hey, nice !! Let's see if i can catch up with icaras !" (particularly when i used to own the record ). But i don't insist if i don't improve. i stay focused on phantom.
    I'd participate more at dark-phantom's challenge if i had more time but learning all the crazy br that you guys are pulling from venom to phantom is too long, lol.
    Also, i was doing speedlaps longtime before this challenge be created, i'll not stop now just because i don't participate at the challenge. The deepmix and yeldar's times are awesome with piranha and they lead the challenge atm !!
    If someone is able to beat those times with other ships on the world ranking is another matter !
    And to finish, nothing prevents deepmix or anyone to crush my time using icaras once the challenge will be finished (for info, 5 BRs same method as my phantom video)


    hmmm, and what's the point of your post, rezatron ? Does it means that it's forbidden to beat records made with "inferiors" ships (as you said) ? Or is it unfair or easy to beat these times using icaras ? Do the records achieved during the challenge are taboo ?

    I totally agree with Leungbok. imo this thread is about improving skill, having fun and using the full range of the game eg every ship/speedclass/track.
