The Speed Lap Challenge

[Dark_Phantom_89]

Another week has come to a close, and what a week it was with the Studio Liverpool shock Once again, the speed lappers names will be added to the Hall of Fame thread.

This weeks criteria are as follows: SPEED LAP/SEBENCO CLIMB (REVERSE)/FLASH/AURICOM

No need to wait with bated breath soon KGB, in a couple of weeks the choice will be with you guys just as it was during Christmas and the New Year.

Cheers wolf sorry had to go work so just read your reply.
I wish i knew that br 10 hrs ago lol.

btw if anyones interested lol i have an idea involving magnets mice in powerwheel and remotecontrol.

[AG-wolf]

I'm dumbfounded... I actually can't do this week's challenge.

Flash is literally just too slow

.__.

[Dark_Phantom_89]

I'm in that position too AG. My time is around a second slower than Mietepiet's. And as for 7BR's, I can only do 6, 2 of which actually slow me down.

[Mietepiet]

Did a 100 lap session on sol2 yesterday, trying for that br at start, but i've never ended in front of my ghost. Anyway Thanx AG-wolf for that vid, will try it agai in the future.

[KGB]

27.76 - 9SP - 5 or 6 BRs - fury

I got a Boost/BR at the start once but haven't tried it a lot. Lots of sideshifting needed to get any BRs on this track.

[yeldar2097]

Should be around 11 useful BRs by my reckoning

[amplificated]

Out of the 6 BR's I know, you don't have to sideshift to do any of them

Of course it makes one or two of them easier and faster though...

I reckon going for the nose down/up-br for a BR at the start would be waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much trouble for its worth on this track. I might be wrong, but I think I'd need a video to be convinced

might have a go with the Auricom later

edit:
11 BR's!?

I think I'd need a video to be convinced

[Dark_Phantom_89]

11BR's? I'm guessing they are the special leungbok types that nobody else is skilled enough to get?

[yeldar2097]

No, thankfully not. They aren't actally all that taxing, cept the boostBR at the start - tis hard to control.

....There's really hard BRs and then there's impossible, stupid, highly unfair, BR-maniac (you know who you are ) BRs

where are you people boosting btw?

[Dark_Phantom_89]

I'm boosting right after the start and getting two (sometimes three if I'm lucky) BR's going into the tunnel. My time is way off of the other guys though.

[yeldar2097]

Oh there's 3 going into the tunnel? In that case I meant 12

[Dark_Phantom_89]

I thought 3BR's in the tunnel was part of the 11BR's!

[leungbok]

In that case I meant 12

12 BR always deserves a vid, yeye !!

[yeldar2097]

You'll have to wait til June for that....my racing suit is being washed at the moment ^_^

[KGB]

Out of the 6 BR's I know, you don't have to sideshift to do any of them

Probably need to change my line then, i don't seem to have enough speed to get them on the line I want to take so I have to SS across to get the height. Failure on my behalf no doubt. Not going to even try and get any more than 7 on here, 12 is a ridiculous amount IMO. I'm starting to hate them. My thumb's wrecked from trying 21 on the TT

[yeldar2097]

well I think my current pb is 7-8. would be nice to get 12 in one good lap though

[amplificated]

Just try pitching up a bit KGB, that should be enough for the BR's on the hill after the straight out of the tunnel, the one you can pull off right after it, and the one going down the hill around the bend; but stay left for that last one.
