Update 23.89 7brs 10 pads

You mean 22.89, no ?

[OBH]

thank you for that correction kind sir

personally i still think boosting right as you leave the tunnel, then landing on the wall so you can double br is faster.

Well, maybe not faster, just a damn sight easier than the shift br i find i know if you can land the double br at the end without a boost you can use it inbetween the tunnels for another br... i just cant do that shifting br very well at all.

I just testin my phone recording ability, it uploads easy enough but not the best, shows the double br though, i nosedive down after 1st br then you get the bounce up to get 2nd br a tap on left handbrake works just as well as a left ss.

update - 22.81

[KGB]

Not had a great deal of time with this but I've still failed big time 24.xx. Never been very good at this track and never will.

[amplificated]

I haven't had much of an effort this week but I'm in the same boat as you KGB. Most of my wipeout time has been spent on TDR< venom (I'm not kidding when I say I've done a lot of laps on that track this week, and 90% of them being fruitless in beating a time I got after only my first 150 laps), and now I totally suck at everything else in the game

burnt out, for sure.

My time is 24.something as well.

I didn't fly too much on SL, it was "TT Week"

My time
23.11 / 10 sp / 6 Br's Fury

[OBH]

its all in the bsb on this track. Hitting 3 brs off the line without a boost is damn handy.
Everything else is subtle, simple racing lines.

[Dark_Phantom_89]

This week has come to a close - some absolutely amazing times this week - really put my 25.26 to shame

OBH is the man this week, congratulations on your victory

As usual, all of your names will be added to the Hall of Fame thread.

This weeks criteria is as follows: SPEED LAP/METROPIA (FORWARD)/RAPIER/HARIMAU

Good luck everyone, I'm sure we'll see more great times this week

EDIT: Sorry I've posted this a couple of hours earlier this week, I just won't be around to post it on time today

[leungbok]

22.72 - fury 10 sp 1 BR
Not a great time, i found that 3 BRs at least are possible on this track at this speed, but someone must start the show isn't it ?

[phaeton_pl]

22.57 10 pads, 1BR, Fury - tha's me this week, not bad


Go Triboy go go go

[KGB]

Kids are back at school .

22.61 - 1BR - 10pads - Fury

Was trying to get a br off the first right hander and then boost at the end, got it a couple of times but it destroys my line. So the fastest way at the moment for me is boost at the start.

[Dark_Phantom_89]

22.72, 10SP's, 1BR, same as leungbok.

I also tried to do what you're talking about KGB but to no avail.

[OBH]

22.49 2brs 10pads FURY

2nd br was the standard left-shifting one after the mag strip.
I tried getting 2 off the boost up the hill at the beginning, but the line just isnt as good as a single br even on a good run.

Bit scared of how close everyone else is despite landing only a single br...

[KGB]

Didn't think you could do that one after the mag strip on Rapier. I can't do it on Phantom anyway , who's got a video of this?

If you could get the one I was doing plus Haydns and then the boost/BR at the end it would be a fast lap! Are these the three you meant Leungbok?

[yeldar2097]

Obh's is in the sane place as the boostbr at the end so maybe not.

My 3 would be boostbr over the line, boost at the hill as per usual, then obh's at the left hander after the mag. Can't say for sure thouGh

[KGB]

Oh, thought he meant straight after the mag strip.

[leungbok]

Are these the three you meant Leungbok?

A boost/br start is possible (phaeton showed that on a video), after you can br at the exit of the left turn after the mag (sideshift) and sideshift again (right) to do another BR at the last small right turn (phaeton again showed that )

[OBH]

i cant boostbr over the line on rapier or do the right-shift br either.

Plenty more time to be squeezed out of this one.

[Woopzilla]

Equalled my personal best.

22.70 / 10 SP / 1 BR / Fury

I can pull off the mag strip BR once every 20 laps maybe (but only after I have a bad start or invalided the lap already ). I think I'm trying it too early or got the approach all wrong. :/
