    Now, now, be nice.
    They did commit to fixing things based on feedback.
    It ain't exactly an easy quick fix to write up new algorithms and load them up to the server.
    You can take it that they are working hard on it considering two of the main guys on the development team have been on here in response to it and that never happens with Gameloft.

    Take that as an indicator it's equally (more so) as important to them.
    A quick fix that doesn't solve it and has the potential to make things worse is not exactly the solution either.

    LOL....You know who wit goes, I was really in the moment last night. But it is what it is... I actually dont mind running that car at all...if it would stay alive and not self di-struct...that is what is the last nail for me ya know...I will wave at you after I leave the food court day to day :)

    Dude...if you are at 54 or 55 with now tuning kit you are the man...or in a different event :) One of my friend who is also very fast is at 2.01 with out tuning kit...Rickeys time is very respectable indeed. I would agree that it is hard to get them with out, but I bet they are mostly doable....especially if you are from China :)

    No they did not, but they said they would work to resolve it so I was just letting everyone know that IMO it is not yet. I dont mind being matched against slightly better cars as long as the driver is not you, RB, Rickey and so on.... but if they are going to put anyone up against cars that are way ahead that makes no sense to me.

    In light of your wholehearted recommendation, I'm in the middle of doing that just now. And wow, do I suck at this. But if I can get the car for less credits than buying it would have cost me, I'm coming out ahead. :)

    As for the P1 itself, I doubt it'll conquer the LaFerrari's spot in my heart, but you're right: It is a good car.

    By the way, for once I disagree with Turbo 343: I don't think the last corner is the critical one — to me, the first one (out of that final set of three corners) makes or breaks the run. I tend to drift too early, but at least there's a hint there: The yellow nitro can in that corner isn't a red herring (like so many of them are), it's actually a valuable landmark.

    I agree with the yellow bottle as a marker, and as the set of last three corners being the key for sure.....but I have hit (what I feel) that and run those two perfectly ( no drift needed in the mid corner) and the last one corner if it is not set up and drifted correctly you slide wide and hit the wall or get lost in the water and loose time.

    Edit: I should add that what I am getting at in a good time is a 1.09.xx :)

    With a perfect run all the way to that last corner I started it right but still drifted away and hit the outside wall...nitro shut off and I had to triple and run for about a second or a shade less and posted the time I have up now..... that is how I have come to that conclusion. For me, the frame rate adds extra challenge as I cannot clearly see landscape to gain perspective/timing on this last corner (or the last series for that matter)...but maybe that is the OLD man on the mall bench in me;)

    Good run Master...

    Your start and mine are the same till after you get the first yellow.

    I run tight to the right and get that next yellow (like you) run perfect to mid first corner in the tunnel then drift slightly while holding as much speed as I can till I apex the mid corner then perfect to light poles like you did but my nitro gets me to them... then I drift in the next corner into the tunnel till I have enough to link my self with the next yellow...I take the left bottle while still under nitro and take out all poles to the first hard right...drift it perfect and all poles to next corner and repeat to the next tunnel. Take yellow and that links me to next yellow... I run tight to right side and take all blue perfect nitro...from here I have nitro clear to the line if I hit a very quick drift at the blue after the rock slide.

    I think I have a better frame rate than you do (*), but I still consider that last corner combo pretty much blind. You have to memorize it and know what you'll do beforehand, because there's just not enough time to make any decisions while you're in there.

    (*) Then again, apart from a short sequence of stuttering in the tunnel, the Tokyo forward video you posted looked perfect to me.

    Thanks, but while I played it on my device it was not in real time. The faster the car the worse it gets and is much harder is more difficult to drive...yet the recording is fine...very strange I think the experience is like driving in a dark room with a strobe light on... I was surprised to see how it came out because it was not that good running it....frame rate wise that is. But that is the airplay portion for sure. because with out mirroring it is fine for me.

    I have almost the same route as you,master. The only difference is that last S corner.I drift in the first corner and take the yellow nitrous,then pass the mid corner without drift and for the last corner i drift clean without touching the wall. And yeah, I knock 1 or 2 guys at the beginning.I am loosing some time because i often stay to much in the air doing the barrel rolls. I cant make a perfect lap,sometimes I fail at the first half, and sometimes in the last,its very frustrating. :( (sry for my bad english)
    im now about 370 in the ranks.

    Something you can do to make it slightly faster is drifting a little less and going to the middle of the robot out of the tunnel (you can hit a few things and you dont have to drift)

    The first and last corner are crucial.
    You have to drift the very first corner (drift early since the car has hard turning) and knockout atleast 3 people on start while getting the yellow nitro.
    At start, you must knockout 1 car, the very first one in front of you. Once you come out of the first jump, triple boost and hit the logs, keeping going and hit the ramp in front of the bridge at a small angel (as if you are barely hitting the amp). Once on the bridge, triple boost and collect atleast 2 bottles (3 is perfect), then barely hit the next ramp again. You should drift the corner with the bus to the point where you should already be in the tunnel before the clock hits 1:32 or you are too slow. After that just get a lot of near misses (every single one, including the buses) and go the right route. Do one flat spin on the first ramp and perfect nitro all the way till you get to the first car when coming out of the tunnel. Once you get near the car, near miss it and the nitro should last just enough to help boost you, and you have to hit the last corners really close (not the 3rd one).

    Thats it for what i do.

    Stupid Canada. I should've changed my country to us a long time ago. I never knew how ... Now I missed that sale which I waited for for the longest time. The senior cup offered the Mercedes lightning which I also needed. Together they are 700k which is a lot of money not maxed out. What else did I miss? I want to cry LOL

    Anyone got a good practice option for the P1 race? Been doing the Veneno On the S Class Dragon's Den race, but I'm not sure it's as good about handling.

    No worries man

    I would run the fastest car you can.... then the P1 feels slow, and should make it easier other than the handling will be worse

    I was showing Master how I did it.... I did try less drifting but lost too much time in the process.. that race is or was a balance of how you saved and used nitro is all, and the China folks had it locked down for sure...

    P1 route is interesting to me...I have the same split if not a shade faster doing the early part a slight bit different and running the middle (upper though it was quicker for me) perfectly but just cannot strap on that last corner for some reason...but I know what I have up will certainly hold the 1000 needed for the car so I may call it a day on that tourney....:rolleyes:

    Ya...:)

    I have the exact same problem! I don't really mind, so I haven't reported it yet, but it is kinda annoying to miss out on the extra credits.
