So... Decided to take a look at these tracks. Holy crap! On a scale from 1 to Gordon Ramsey, I cranked it up to about 11 during "The anger of the ocean". So satisfying to finish it though. (Although it might have cost me a controller.) As for the "Ultimate Bifta Warrior", I couldn't even finish it. What's the deal with those colored blocks near the end? there is only 1 certain line you can take through it, you squeeze through a certain gap. keep trying and you'll find it. most have done it before so they know what to do, i won't spoil it

i'm a dum dum and i realised that the event date might be a little too far away from the announcement, considering moving it forward a week to the 19th of may (it would still start and end at the same time). there's a poll at the top of the thread to gauge interest

I just gotta ask - is that first obstacle too hard? I just now spent about 15 minutes trying to get over those rails. This time I can't. Quit out in the end. A shame really, cause the rest of the track was so much fun. I'm not that bad at throttle control or wheel adjustment...

A shame really, cause the rest of the track was so much fun. I'm not that bad at throttle control or wheel adjustment... the best way to do it it is to approach it straight on as possible then slow down and keep throttle at a minimum whilst still maintaining forward momentum as you go up them, allowing you to make any adjustments if you need too. some of the rails are easier than others, and they're all different so it's best to focus on one and get good at it then soon you'll be hitting sub 5 minutes for the whole track the lap record is 3:09 so it's definitely not too hard

I didn't realize they're different though. Perhaps I've been going at it on the worst one. (Hopefully!) Thanks for the tip mate! Guess I'll be trying again then. Of course, we must always consider the possibility that I might in fact suck.

alright everyone, 2 days ago out of everyone who voted the numbers were 7 for and 1 against and even though it's ended on 6 for and 3 against that is still twice as many people who would prefer it being moved forward a week. no one has contacted me saying they are strongly against that decision, so i shall side with the majority and move the event forward to the 19th of may the updated timetable is as follows: Date: Saturday 19th May Pre lobby: 7:15pm UTC Event lobby: 7:30pm UTC Event Start: 7:40pm UTC Event end: 9:00-9:30pm UTC see you boyes in 2 weeks time tagaroonies:
