For example, just this simple run took me like 2 hours of playing on that track to get the most suitable traffic & lost like what 100 nos :@ and its still not the fastest. Which is why I also kind of hated doing these powerups based runs. Half the reason I stopped using them completely. Can't improve my skill as a driver with 'outside' help, plus I can fully concentrate on squeezing everything out of the car and the track. Only did about 40 runs where most were because of traffic slowing me down a second or I gave up. The 1:13:45 wasn't perfect cos I stuffed up too. Going 15km/h slower than average in one corner makes a lot of difference. More people should have entered using no powerups, even if it's only for this Actually.... could one of the front runners try one without powerups? Wanna see what the car can do since these times are insane

There was still some minor mistakes on that run, with current setup I can improve about .5-.6 sec. I wish there was option to stop these stupid traffic. It just wastes times for doing leaderboard runs. For example, just this simple run took me like 2 hours of playing on that track to get the most suitable traffic & lost like what 100 nos :@ and its still not the fastest. Which is why I also kind of hated doing these powerups based runs. yep i have to agree. I used 200 nos to get 1:06 and its still far from you guys. I know that the point of this contest is to improve times, but I personally like no PU racer more then PU spanning. (one of the reason is because my computer gets fps kill when MR2 does a perfect start)

Only thing noticed is that his score is 0, meaning he's banned for some reason. For track times.... hmm.... not seeing anything. Did he made very fast time on any of them??

Anyway I'm surprised to see you here. Would've been better if you had continued playing so you would've got those good performance parts. I think you already got good cars so no need advising there. Since you are leveling up now, what you do is check my skills guide and improve skills you haven't learnt. At the bottom you'll find a overall best skills set which is recommended to use as of now. You might find some other useful guides link below there. Well, I am actually playing this quite a lot right now, which is the reason why you see me here, so I don't quite understand the statement "Would've been better if you had continued playing", lol. As you can see I already improved from level 33 to 37 between stage 1 and 3 of this series. I really want to get to level 50 here finally. I already own this game since the very first day it came out, so it's ridiculous that I still haven't made it. Although it does take a ton of time to level up it should not have taken me more than a whole year to finish this. I just need to play a bit more. Unfortunately I already messed up my driver skills in the very beginning because I didn't realise that I wouldn't be able to get all of them in the end, so I got some stupid sh it like the one that gives you more rep. I can only try to still make the best possible skill set out of it, as a perfect one is probably not possible anymore. I will definitely get the second jump start next level, so I can also do that slingshot trick at the start that you guys showed me. Also thanks for pointing out the worse handling with juggernaut. I was already thinking the same but I wasn't actually sure about it, lol. One question here: Are you sure that the demolition man skill only works against cops and not against racers, so that I don't need to get it? Because I feel like I am always getting the worse end in multiplayer collisions, even though I used the maximum amount of points at my level for the ram skill. Right now I am always doing Waterfront Road multiplayer to level up because it seems to be the fastest way but the other guys always smash me off the road very easily, while I only slow down when I hit others myself. This is pretty annoying, since I often lose against people in multiplayer who are doing times that I can beat easily when the road is free. And another thing: Using 100 nitrous just for one challenge sounds pretty insane. As you can see in the video I don't even have 50 right now. Are you guys buying a lot of stuff with speed boost like the good upgrades etc? Even though I could probably afford it I don't really want to use a lot of real money for this game. I only used boost to buy the 911 GT3 so far because it seems to be the best car and was getting retired. I would feel kind of stupid to spend boost just for single upgrades etc but it would also be silly if I had to play forever to get them otherwise. I mean there are always these people advertising cheap boost in chat but I never took that seriously because they are surely just scams, right?

Buy mystery packs if you need powerups. 50k igc is alot to "waste" to get powerups but there isnt much else to spend it on. I used around 200-300 today on Rockridge&Union & Lincoln boulevard but hey i been here since the beginning too and i have 7k nos & to answer your questions regarding skill points, read this. The Infamous Slitch wrote it. you remember him right? www.hayasacrew.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=391&p=1998#p1998
