The Speed Lap Challenge

[AspenExcel]

23.68 / 4 BRs / 8 SPs / FURY

[carlos69nash]

Not sure ! The fastest way for a good time on moa forward is a 4 BRs lap !

4 barrel rolls??? what??

[triboy]

My time on Amphi:

24.18 / 4 br's / 10 sp / fury

One Q: I wonder do we count that br before start? Or just those br's made when clock is running?

[DreamyElf]

i think only BRs after you pass the start line count...

ok here is my final time: 24.29 / 3 BR / 10 SP / Fury

[SaturnReturn]

24.29 - 7 SP - 4 BR - Fury

I have no clue how to do the start on this, so this is actually slower than my best TT lap.

[Nutcase:259]

Improved
24.97 8SP 2BRs HD

i found that if i stop accelerating as i do the BR over the line then use the goteki thrust and boost at the same time i get a much better start. although seeing as everyones much faster you probably already did this.

Kind of embarrasing that I haven't attended this weeks challenge even though I chose the track
Simply been doing other things :/

[Deathjester87]

Final entry for this week:

24.76, 4BR (is the 2nd magstrip BR even possible with goteki??), 7SP, Fury

Had a much much better lap going, where I'd done everything right, but then I panicked and bounced off the track after landing the shortcut. This is where I'd use an emoticon, but I can't find one that adequately evokes my level of rage.

Another week has come to a close, and an interesting week it was. Congratulations to yeldar for his victory, and an honourable mention to Unctuous who came so close.

Thanks to all who participated - your names will be added to the Hall of Fame Thread

As you may know, I let regular participants of the challenge choose what they'd like to see for the week. So, I present this weeks challenge, courtesy of Jasmin:

SPEED LAP/ANULPHA PASS (REVERSE)/FLASH/ICARAS

[Challenger #001]

Jasmin, if I ever meet you online you are getting a rocket up the backside for this. 69 laps of tedium and my best is still way off Woop's.

28.65, 2brs, 13 sps

[Woopzilla]

27.41 / 13 SP / 4 BR / Fury

^^

Boost BR start is possible, but I can't do it well enough, so it's 4 BRs.

[amplificated]

26.87, 4 br's?, 12 sp's

for the life of me I can never get that BR just before the first tunnel (let alone double it), and I had a couple of bad lines... so frustrating when you repeatedly can't do things you think should be simple.

[smiggy]

27.73 4BR 13SP FURY (Hope i did that right)

Scruffy lap, will give it a proper go in the morning tomorrow.

lol..so you want to put your rocket into my backside


seriously challenger i only picked the track cos the last few tracks were way to hard..well for me anyway..

[KGB]

Where's everyone getting the BRs at? I got them @ boost br at start - boost br up the long straight - up the sharp right turn - coming out the tunnel - round the last bend. Can you get a double up the sharp right and on the last bend?

I have a 27.02 - 5BRs - 11pads - Fury

[Dark_Phantom_89]

26.88, 13SP's, 5BR's.

I was about to give up, but it all came together nicely in one lap. Can't see myself improving on this time though, at least not with Mirage

[Nutcase:259]

28.32 12SP 2BR FURY

awwww i was all excited that i might be able to do this one...

[KGB]

26.72 - 5BRs - 12 pads - Fury. I think this is about the limit for me, may have another shot at it if I get time.

[QjonPL]

26.50 / 13sp / 5br / fury
I can't connect my console to psn, so a screenshot has to make a proof:

[triboy]

Qjon improved his time to 26.49. Not bad, not bad...

I got:

26.89 / 4 br's / 13 sp / fury
