crash team racing - N.gin labs: 2:08.61

One of my better records. Sub 2:08 was possible for me back then. If i ever return to the game i might go for that :)

To those who don't know the reason for my ghost suddenly passing me at the end it's a glitch that happens on many courses for some reason. As you can see the ghost does stop right before the finish line and didn't finish before me.

My record for this level is 2:08.57 (or lower maybe i don't remember).

how the fuck do you have constant boost on some parts.. ur a fucking hacker.. dislike

[stelzig]

@hellbound64

You can boost again before your boost runs out resulting in "reserves". Some turbo pads give stronger boosts so I choose to save all those reserves for those. Not gonna elaborate further.

[hellbound64]

@stelzig how do you save your boosts?

[stelzig]

@hellbound64

By boosting again. If you charge it fully (bar completely red) they overlap, and when overlapped they are postponed rather than lost. You just have to boost alot and you will maintain your boost for a while when you stop. You can hear that i'm about to lose all boost at about 1:42-1:43

Crash team racing no one is faster than you in this game but yourself

@stelzig if this is legit ur fucking unreal dude

Just keep practicing, it does take some time and experience to really get comfortable with the physics of the game.

I guess you already know, but try to delay your turbos as much as possible (bar fully red), and try to do as many as possible in one drift as the later ones are stronger - Don't do the first ones faster to get more late turbos though, quality over quantity.

@stelzig Ok so im just bad driver ( cant unlock that unl turbo (or is it saffi fire w/e ) but then i can atleast know that ITS possible on my version to get those times

@Frozzenfin

It's pretty easy to check the top speed thing by the way, just turn on the speedometer instead of the map and maintain full speed after a turbo pad for a while, the arrow should point straight up if it's a top speed character (i'm 90% on this at least :P)

Good luck with improving your time :)

@Frozzenfin

The wikia is wrong then. Penta penguin has the N.Oxide perfect stats in PAL. Well technically I don't know if they are perfect or exactly the same, I just know he has full top speed and his drifting is better than the other top speed characters.

I don't know if it is the case in NTSC for sure by the way (I never got it confirmed), but NTSC players have always claimed that penta has the same stats as pura and polar so... :P
