    Nice times :)

    I'm not too strong either in the challenger or on Barcelona reverse, there's a few 1:18s on my list so will need to work on it. I only barrel the big jump when I have a lot of nitro otherwise I need to flat spin because there is only the one blue bottle and a few obstacles until the beach. Need to work on my start too, actually my whole route needs working on, think I'm missing a couple of shortcuts.

    Nice time on the 12c, you should add nemesis, he's further ahead than me again! Are you talking about barreling off the very first jump in the map for 1.12? I still haven't got the fastest start figured out on Alps, I used to flat spin right across the curve almost to the first yellow as it gives enough nitro to make it to the barrel at the top of the hill but all the better times I've seen use either a barrel at the beginning or no jump at all. I just can't seem to get enough nitro to make it up the hill by doing anything other than the big flat spin. The other way I do it is knocking down all the AI and taking the first blue, but I still miss out on barreling the big ramp when I try that and still don't get enough nitro most of the time.

    Don't know if I'll get playing much today, if I do I might have to focus on the biome mainly, I have made only about 700k credits the last few days as I've been restarting loads of races when I know I won't be on a fast lap. Need to focus on turning my 2 million into 10 million by next week in case the one:1 is available for credits! If it is there will probably be a cup on with it on Saturday and Sunday so need to have the upgrade cash available quickly too. If it comes out as IAP at least I can buy and upgrade the nismo and furai, and I still have 5 or 6 others that need maxed out, I just kinda gave up on maxing cars a couple of weeks ago when the nismo was released.

    Good luck with whatever it is you're up to, you've certainly left a few times that are gonna take a lot of effort to beat :)

    I sent you a request yesterday with a little message which might have not been displayed! I am new to this forum and look for some ghost challenges. I raced you in MP some time ago and was impressed. So if you don't mind, kjOli78 like here with capital O. Thank you!

    Anyone know what this 'Ban Campaign' is all about? I emailed GL about the 60 one:1 times in the top 100 of the Halloween infected cup despite only 20 being 'legally' out there so far and it was mentioned in the reply. Of course they want screenshots too, can't see why they can't just look at the leaderboard of both and compare.

    This is a cycle that began with the dawn of time — someone offers clear evidence of cheating to GL, and they respond in some manner. This is the latest "manner." And the cycle continues. ...

    I have made 1:08.804 with P1 and single tank in Nevada reverse. I did a bad start, but the rest of the lap was pretty good and I'm current 1º on my division, so, I needn't to improve :D

    On Barcelona, is H€IS€NBERG on your list, he has a good route. PE has a video:

    http://youtu.be/rjKhHtPPT38

    On Alps, I go left take out two or three AIs blue bottle skip jump, yellow bottle inside bus two stones and barely only one wheel on the ramp should work, I never run out of nitro. Last jump as low as possible flat spin, preferably one and straight.

    I'm still in zombie Marathon 9300 and 47, wanted to see how far I can get without real money. I think the journey has come to en end 20th is 9900 and I despite many first places can't get lower, because the others don't sleep, spend tons of cash or have a gas station or whatever.

    Hopefully the One:1 is available for credits! Tomorrow I start farming. Same as you I have not maxed my Nismo and still need to decide on buying the Furai.

    Yes Heisenberg is on my list, will add his ghost to my race this evening. Think I saw PEs video before but will get another look, I watched a lot of his videos early on when I was barely past the stage of just playing for 5 stars so I probably didn't pick up much. Have just been watching TLE videos lately coz I'm sick of missing out on the top prizes by only a couple of positions lol!

    I might have been confusing the Alps mc12 with the recent D class TLE regarding running out of nitro, both of the mclaren cars seem to have a long nitro duration, will try again later.

    That's pretty unfortunate that you came so far in the one:1 and have to abandon it now, I had a feeling that people would either 'buy' a top 20 spot or not sleep for a week, or both! After I missed out last week I decided to try and play for a week for fun chasing ghosts instead of grinding or focussing on TLEs, still gutted at how close I was, 0.033 seconds from 20th position and an eventual 24th!

    You act like you think anyone care. DarthV90 and me self has told over and over that first One:1 cup was won by a dude in a MAXed car. Noone cares, even less if you give scareloft more then a few $$$


    Ofc they make big bugs, selling GLs intelectual property, perhaps a reason I wonder so much if GL doesnt care cuz they're the ones raping this game them selfs for whatever reason

    And btw, I've got an aquaintance who "works" 6-to 9h a day farming wow gold, and makes a living of it. I'm kinda disapointed that GL cant even keep some kind of overview, helping em to weed out the pimples on A8's ass

    This particular cup is all but superfulous, and the prices arent even worth getting into a single race

    Yeah, same problem goes for B class vs A class aswell. This S9 maxing buissiness has thourouly ��������ed up my game, as most my beloved cars has become worthless online.
    AAs a rule of thumb, I try to keep whatever usefull cars I have at (b) 1400 ish, (a) 1500Max
    Tbh, if I'm considering a 1500+ a class, I just get into my red ligtning or venom

    Dave I can't beat your season 8 FG S class ghost but I set a new time instead.

    VMX my new laFerrari ghost is messy so have a go at that and I like the way you just beat the ghost and leave it. It keeps the game interesting, as at some point the grid position makes the ghosts invincible.

    Yeah, I couldn't beat Dave's MAX Survolt Dubai ghost because being just a bit ahead on the left side of the grid was too much of an advantage to overcome. But, I did manage to squeak by his time last night.

    I definitely find the alternative grid position off putting at best and a complete disadvantage at worst re: the nitro knockdowns you need. I would say most of my ghosts could be improved at the start. Dubai is probably one of the exceptions, it's pretty straightforward for all the cars, take off down the left and pick up a couple of easy side knockdowns then reach the first barrel with the blue and a near miss or two. The others I am struggling to get away so smooth. I noticed your survolt time this morning, can't see there being much left in it, maybe very slightly into the high 1:00s.

    The S class you're talking about nemesis I hit that time on my first attempt last night and couldn't better it for 20 mins afterwards, there were a couple of mistakes in it too including missing a crossover drop but I recovered well enough not to start bashing the walls. Definitely need to focus on s9 for a week now though to get credits in case the one:1 isn't IAP as there should be a TLE with it next weekend if it is released in Friday. Haven't got playing any at all tonight, child isn't well so A8 has to take a back seat for a night as I doubt he'll be going to sleep anytime soon and that's usually when I get an hour or two in :/
