Finally figured out how to shift...

 

 

Now I need to figure out how to brake vs slowing down slowly... crashed a ton...

 

Also - take screen shots quickly as the game resets fairly fast (although your score is kept as the hi-score)

 

Anyway 57130

Got it earlier - but thanks anyway.  ?

 

Just stopped playing my second time because ... well I get bored easily and don't usually do this well.

 

But after 30+ish minutes and 506750... boring.  Too many other things to do.  (How in the heck do you guys play for hours and hours!!!  Kudos!)

 

Not sure if the time slowly decreases (Canada 105 (I think) and then the 3/4th time 100...).

 

 

I'm guessing that if I can do this well then Dugger / Northcoast or Ikrananka can roll this 2 maybe 3 times at this level.

Hard thing to do (I sure you know) is not to keep the 'pedal to the floor' and accelerate / brake 'appropriately' .  Once you do that then it's 'easy'...

 

Race on gamers!

Yeah, once I understood that I stopped crashing around the hairpin bends.  But I still occasionally crash into other cars which is what's hindering my score at the moment.

I finally figured out that if you brake enough then you don't crash when a car in front of you veers into your path (grrr!) you just bump it.

Well now, you won't be finishing low man this week will ya? Besides a nice score you also shared a nice tip as well. 

Nicely done! You obviously still have it in you, maybe it's the name..............

So, I found a secret in the game (not totally secret as it's mentioned in the game manual).  This triggers when your time for a track exactly matches the record time for that track.  By pure luck I managed this on the first track and this time the next track was an easy bonus track named "Kakure Course" (see photo below).  I believe "Kakure" means "Hidden" in Japanese.  No idea what the initials mean.

So, after boosting my score a little with the above secret "Kakure" course, I was finally getting into the flow of the game.  That is until I crashed around a stupid hairpin bend on the Austrian course.  This broke my concentration and I subsequently crashed about three more times.  Oh well - next time perhaps.

CHEATER!!!!!!     LOL!!!  

 

 

I don't pay much attention to the tracks (but got to admit ... didn't see this!)  COOL!

 

 

Come on you 'great' players!   rollover is easy.

 

 

PLEASE don't make me play this for hours on end (See prior message!)
