There are a few tricks. It is still very tough of course! 1) cut the corners as tight as possible. This includes one or two tires over the water or rocks 2) if you do clean laps you will have an opportunity at one point to move through the moving barriers pretty much down the middle of the track. 3) race above the three road dots at the bottom of the course. This does save time if you combine it with point 1 This game is surprisingly fun and a classic. If others have suggestions on other iphone games like this one pls post! love the low graphics, but big on fun combo! I've completed the bonus course 26. There are a few tricks.

There is a new challenge in track 12 (water way). The challenge is not the win the track, but pass all the other cars two times. I did my self with three cars (white, green and yellow), but I'm having a difficult time to pass the second time the blue car. cheers Hi!

I think that it is the code of the game that determines the time since it seems to not be accurate based on my laps. 2. I think right now that the moving barriers are the key to getting this because I do not slow anywhere else and hit the straights most efficiently by only slightly skidding into a parallel closest to the straights, just have to skid a little on the barriers, and this might add the tenths of a second to miss the mark. 23:2 is the best I got myself.

I can beat all 25 levels on "mamba hard" no problem but cant for the life of me get any quicker than 23.2 on that bonus track. TORTURE! after all those previous comments and my personal experience, if someone claimed they got a 22.9 i wouldn't believe it until i saw video. I'm having the same problem…

I do exactly the same thing. Still no luck though. I think the path you drift of the top of the track (over the water) is really important. I try and keep the nose of the car just on the track. Likewise the last 2 right-handers have to be cut perfectly. I often hit one of 3 dots by trying to perfect that line. I have been going a little wider, then cutting in sharp after the dots, so you finish in the middle of the track, not drifting over to the left too far. Mind you, I haven't hit that 22.9 mark yet, so any variations that people are doing would be hugely appreciated. Thank Bo.

How i drive it is: in the first straight i only move extreemly little from left to right. In the moving bars I drive to the right of all three moving bars when possible(saves a little) In the bottum i drive under/south of the 3 dots. I also find it impossible to go below 23.0 on track 26.

I think it is pretty much impossible. I have done a few 'perfect' laps - like just missing the points of each corner, straight lining where possible, missing the moving barriers by a freckle, and still only shoot at 23.0 If anyone has done it out there, please just reassure me that it CAN be done!
