Sweet weekly challenge TT Pure

[Asayyeah]

Competition has really started !! Geez this is the battle for Sol2 ! i am not sure an ' improved communication ' reason is enough to stop Stin's will, spk
Ok i will get practise now ( no time to check WZ : time for the challenge now!! )

1st run with Ag
24.77 / 22.69 / 24.21 / 23.28 / 22.96 = 1.57.91
Best lap : 22.62

[lunar]

New times:1.56.64 in AGS with best lap 22.65 and no turbo start. I could barely get under 23 with Goteki. AGS rocks on here. Assegai can match my Triakis ghost on the first half to the top of the hill, and Goteki probably too. But it all seems to be on that last right hand bend - and Goteki is a floppy disaster there, Assegai slightly better through the whole final sequence, but not much. But wow, AG can carve up this track! 1.55 is certainly possible, sub 1.55 with a perfect race. I don`t think I`m actually going to do it - just tried for a while and Sol2 gives me a nervous breakdown. I had a sub 24 first lap - then 22.6, 22.7, then a mental collapse and 23.6 followed by 24.8 Medievil could possibly be faster, but I haven`t tried it.

btw amazing times in your last edit Stevie. Triakis time is......

update best times

AGS

22.60/1.56.19

Goteki

[RingoSpoon]

Asa could you post an AG ghost up on Defs site? I dont think I have ever raced against that craft in Phantom mode

I will use it as a marker for my TT time cheers mate

[stin]

Cheers Lunar!

Ok, I now decided to reveal my secret ship is....................well can wait till tomorrow night

Now, I will give a go at AG System but, just for one hour.

Hi All.

this challenge on sol 2 has a big start ....but......this week I don't have just the time and the tranquillity necessary in order to participate.

If I will find some time will be perhaps in the afternoon of Sunday.

Excuse me

Read You soon

ps my last time in a previous msg

Hi,
Wow, thisii is one of the faster Pure challenge here!

Stevie, congrats you're really the master here

I'm sorry for my mate that is very busy and in-chaos in this period , but you are stronger than chaos, Alterego!!!

My challenge ship is in the box, I race with triakis out of challenge:

TT: 1.54.95 : 23.92 - 22.77 - 23.00 - 23.47 - 21.79
BL : 21.79 (without turbo at the start. I think that 21.00 is really possible in a few time by fast racers=Stin)

[stin]

Thank you guys but nobody touch my place! , if they do and I will do the job!

I have a best lap for AG System is 22.47 but I did not load the ghost. (sorry)


Yes iL Nik, it is possible for roughly about 21.20 but below 21?, I don`t think is possible but you will never know.


stevie

[lunar]

I knew Goteki was the secret ship, since your last post about it. Don`t ask me how..... but I knew it I will have to give her another run, Stevie

[stin]

Excellent score Lunar, but I was having a bad time for myself last night at the prizegiving then this morning, I was not in the mood to play pure but I did tried my best today as you can see my score through records tables.

Now I`m listening to trances music to ease my mind and will be back to normal again.

[Asayyeah]

I won't talk about Dag & myself last night cause we were gutted 1 Hour racing Kai more or less good ( bad ping for few mates) and then total breakdown from Kai : 1 hour before entering it again with 2 new windows errors getting on my screen : anyway a nightmare for Anthony & me : among of our top 3 least fav session we did
Hope this will be working tonight ...

So i raced a bit with non official triakis for this Sol2 challenge and was totally wrong about my turbo location ...
with my 1st idea to get the turbo while turning the last bend before finish line i get a 1.53.59 was very close from Stin but i t was a perfect race with 4PL in it
I changed my weapon from shoulder and get that turbo where Lunar said... what a changement : 4 attempts and done this :
23.77 / 22.52 / 22.25 / 22.38 / 21.91 = 1.52.83

Keep it up stin& spk Sol2 is not finished

21.38

[il_NIK]

Always the same Arnaud!



P.S.: I've always used my turbo just when the nose of my ship can see the long descent to the last double bend. As soon as possible! (without jumping out the track!!!)

Sol 2 Phantom ------------------------ Sunday Report

Sorry guys , been a bit delayed for the weekly report due to great session at 3 tonight in Kai with the 2 Stephen

I must thank all our challengers for their work on Sol2 , we had a real great competition animated mostly by Stin with all of his ship's choice.
For our 1st phantom test we get 9 racers which is a good number: proof that phantom can be handle by practising .
At least on that one i ve learnt a good lesson where the turbo needs to be done : thx to Lunar for opening finally my eyes on it.
About the non official Triakis , this ship is really the master one and so far : others can't compare in term of speed ( especially in phantom ).
Goteki is surely his closest rival when it is mastered by mates like Stin & Lunar

Anyway here's the result for this week 7 :

Racetime :

1* Lunar : 1.55.40 Goteki 1945
2* Stin : 1.55.65 Goteki 1945 ---- 1.53.41 Triakis
3* Rageagainstgeorge : 1.56.99 Ag System
4* Asayyeah : 1.57.91 Ag System ---- 1.52.83 Triakis
5* Insertcoin : 1.59.91 Ag System
6* Il Nik : 2.00.36 Auricom ---- 1.54.95 Triakis
7* Alterego : 2.04.89 - 123 Klan ship
8* Vic Cachou : 2.04.89 Triakis
9* Poisson : 2.13.58 Triakis

Laptime :

1* Lunar : 21.95 Goteki 1945
2* Stin : 22.47 Ag System ---- 21.75 Triakis
3* Rageagainstgeorge : 22.60 Ag system
4* Asayyeah : 22.62 Ag system ---- 21.38 Triakis
5* Il Nik : 23.13 Auricom ---- 21.79 Triakis
6* Insertcoin : 23.19 Tigron
7* Alterego : 23.27 _ 123 Klan ship ---- 22.79 Triakis
8* Vic Cachou : 23.31 Triakis
9* Poisson : 24.91 Triakis

Congratulations to Lunar , our Big winner of this fast competition ( yeah i got the new top spot for triakis but this is another story )
His Goteki 1945 beated Stin's AG but with difficulties. congrats Stin, AG rocks in phantom.

I hope everyone will enjoy our new challenge choosen by the Winner Spk & started now and finishing sunday 26th of November midnight.

Ubermall Flash ------------------- Week 8

[lunar]

One mistake in the results, Arnaud, Stin`s 1.55.65 was in Goteki not AGS. I know because I was keeping an eye on Stevie for a couple of days last week.

AG is certainly very fast on Phantom, but Goteki really throbs once you get all the speed pads and come close to mastering the track, and is a tiny bit faster. I don`t think there`s a standard ship (apart from Triakis) which is generally faster than Goteki on Phantom. Assegai is faster on some tracks, I`m fairly sure. It would be interesting to see if Medievil and Zone are as quick as G45(not including BRs). If they are faster it`s not by much I`m sure. Triakis is in a class by itself.

I`ve often found, with AGS, that I can easily beat my Goteki best, and then I conclude that AGS is faster. But then I go back to Goteki and find that the AGS training has given me new speed in it. AGS is so stable and nippy on corners that it`s great for learning the track. On a few twisty tracks it could really be the fastest non-Triakis ship. It`s very slightly slower than G45 generally, but a heck of a lot easier to get good times in.

On rapier and slower, though, Goteki is really very average for speed.

Great challenge, everyone,

I will try to get various ships to test this challenge , so here's how i do it :
Freerace : get the best lap among 10 launched laps ( means i stop racing at the beginning of lap12)
Time Trial : 5 attempts on a row get the best of it.
