    Dave, the stratus is small, feels light and cheap. No comparison with the PS3. There is another one from Moga that has better size and feels and needs no jailbreak. H€IS€NBERG has one, but hasn't been playing much with it. I'll ask him later, see if got used to it. If I had to start all over I think I'd rather be using tab-to-steer-method. I have tried to switch but I can't seem to get used to it.

    Is there anyone here using a controller and if which?

    Are you beginning from a standing start? If so, the distance would measure nitro "efficiency" with both top speed and acceleration taken into consideration.

    Been reading this lately.

    What happened to Dark_Zero, Running Bird, BeaArthur's Ghost, Turbo 343, and some of the older members?

    Yeah you mentioned you had seen a video already, although like the San diego glitch you obviously aren't in the mood to share it with the rest of is, instead just point out that you have it. If I can match hectors time in my division and maybe even shave some off due to the apparent ios better fps then all I need to beat so far is 1:08:127 so it will suffice.

    BeaAthur's Ghost has retired for a loooong time,but I'm Not sure if he's out of the TOP 100 mp Ranking.
    Running Bird(in my opinion,One of the funnest Players to play against in mp) Looks from time to time in Here :)
    Dark is still more or less active (at least in my eyes)
    Turbo was Away for a long Time and then came back,now he's in hung's "fury team" and mostly active Ingame :rolleyes:

    First 3 runs on double tank, the car is easy to handle but from practice rounds on single tank twice took the first barrel on the way uphill when not needed. In the third run tried to do it safe and came up with a 1:08.9xx. I went hectors route but messed up the jump from dirt track, there is a lot of room for improvement.

    The next three runs I will try 6353s route, see what suits me better.

    In practice rounds S9, F12, I twice had an AI overtake me while I was clearly first. He came from the low alternative route, and went already uphill when I landed from Buddhas jump. I had this before in Venice. Maybe there is a glitch when you jump in the deep valley from lower route, tried some but couldn't find one! Or it's just an AI teleported mysteriously.

    Yeah that Sounds like I'm a really mean Person.
    I Guess I wasn't the One who told you and explained the glitch on san Diego
    and as I Said I already explained my Route a few Pages back,then I watched the video and it was the exact same Route,I was always very very Kind and not mean to Anyone but this is the First sarcasm I had to you use on this Thread after almost 1200 Pages
    And I Guess I'm Not going to Share my Routes in the next few cups,because as you Said "I'm obviously not in the Mood to Share my Route with you guys..."
    Well,now
    I'm not in the Mood of being Kind to you... :mad:

    Boys, cool down its just a game and most of us are not in the same Division so why bother! I am happy for everyone who posts a really good time even if that means I come second ( in my case 600th). So please be friendly with each other!

    Lol. Someone else called you out on the bragging on the San Diego glitch actually too. Don't be so sensitive, it was just a throwaway remark, no need to get upset.

    To be honest mate my comment was a little blunt too, I apologise for offending you, you did help out a great deal with the San Diego thing eventually and I did almost make maximum benefit from it! We don't mess around with how we speak to each other here in Northern Ireland lol, let's just take it as being lost in translation :)

    Switch: Ok du kommst auch aus Deutschland? Wie ist Dein Name im Spiel? Zu Deinem Sprichwort, wird wohl so sein! #

    Here's an extremely interesting experiment you can use to measure the difference in "Nitro Effectiveness" between the Nismo and the Roadyacht.

    1. Change your steering mode to Manual Acceleration
    2. Start a Quick Race
    3. Select Versus, Iceland, A-Class
    4. Select the Nismo
    5. Use a Nitro Starter boost
    6. Lay your device on a flat surface
    7. When the race starts, do not accelerate.
    8. Hit the nitro button only and execute a perfect nitro (again, do not press the gas!)
    9. As the car accelerates on Nitro only, it will eventually hit the railing at an angle but will not crash.
    10. The railing will guide the car around the curve until it comes to a stop on its own.
    11. Once the car stops, repeat the above steps with the Roadyacht and compare.

    The reason I found this so interesting is that the Nismo and the Roadyacht both have Nitro ratings of 24mph, and the Nismo has a faster acceleration than the Roadyacht (2.05s vs 2.35s) as well as a higher top speed (237mph vs 227mph). Yet, the Roadyacht significantly outperforms the Nismo in this test :rolleyes:

    Well, first goal is half price on boosters, about 17h left of that, guess one better keep an eye on the progress, of one is lloking for a cheaper car or other "prices" that comes with this progress

    Yup, tis was me, and I still believe kindship and brotherhood amongst our own little TA clan is important.
    You did say right out that the one difference is barrel after buddha, so imho, you may be just protecting some privacy, which I can respect. Peace Bro

    Arghhhhh, I just had a great run ruined by the last barrel roll which I wrecked on, I'm sure I would have got 1:07 or 1:08

    Haha, poor Ryan. You and Fabien are just doing your job as a middle man between the dev team and us and you're the ones where people toss pebbles. I don't get why some people put their whole hate on you guys. Could be related to the slight drop in feedback (I feel like there is one, dunno about you), but it's not a valid reason IMO.

    Thanks for the (late but still good) info. But seriously, we should be warned before. It would have helped a bit with all of the hate and leavers.

    Hey, can I join in? :D

    Don't worry, you still have 3 days before the end. But you should get your division quickly if you didn't get one yet.
