The Speed Lap Challenge

[brainbeat]

Wow nice times guessvid I gonna have to rethink my strategy.
You boosting at the first straight then phaeton.

I did a quick 2 min video of my feeble 3 br run.

@ Brainbeat

My best result with your method was 28.03 but i do my boost under the arches.

My current record is done with the other method.

Sorry it's not YT but i didn't had time to make a full movie

[amplificated]

hahaha, nice vids! The second one in particular, would be crazy if that could be pulled off!

[brainbeat]

Cheers for the vids I'll check them later as for some reason can't download to my iPhone. Should be able to because I got Linux stuff on there but still said can't dl. I will have to blow the dust of my pc.

[Mr Phlanj]

haha i tryed that once, i even tryed pitching to see if landing flat would make it stick but it wouldnt reach if i pitched

[OBH]

damn, im on a phone so cant dl those videos

update 28.04 11pads 4brs FURY

hmm, come to a brick wall, a boostBR over the line, 3 brs from boosting on 1st straight then perfect lap to the end, but still a long way behind......

Where is my thinking cap.

[Mr Phlanj]

29.04 I dont know how many br or sp i did

Another week has come to a close - congratulations to one of our barrel-rolling pioneers for his victory this week - phaeton and an honourable mention to all who competed. Check the Hall of Fame thread, where all names will be added.

This weeks criteria is as follows: SPEED LAP/TALON'S JUNCTION (FORWARD)/FLASH/AURICOM

Good luck to all.

Gave it a decent shot:

29.61 / 13 SP / 1 BR / Fury

Is a boost BR over the startline possible? And if it is, videos please.

[brainbeat]

29.67 2brs Inc boostbr at start

just keep to the righthand lane and you'll land nicely on 1st speedpad

Found this one at venom speed.

Did this one about a month ago so I doubt I can beat my Icaras time (25.0x I think). Terribly inconsistent at that boost-BR, but if you stick towards the right side of the track like brainbeat said you have more air to do it since the track dips a little bit on that side.

[Woopzilla]

Hey thanks... I'll try improve my time a bit then.

So hard to find videos if they don't have many tags attached. ><

[KGB]

29.71 - 1br - 12 pads - fury

Did about 60 laps at this and couldn't manage the br at the beginning once

[JJPAP]

Hi all - first time appearance at TSLC for me

29.61 | Auricom+ - 12 SP´s - 1 BR

Btw, my nervous system is not made for more than 1 BR at this track ...

Edit! Now 29.52 - still 1 BR, 12 SP´s and Auricom+

[Dark_Phantom_89]

Had a 25 lap session this morning and got 29.76, 1BR, 12SP's.

Welcome aboard JJ, and a great time too!

[brainbeat]
