Hello everybody! Mislav speaking, as you know I'm still new in Zak's competition,so I still have some problems...for this track, ZCT57 I'm pretty fuc*** up if you don't help me:)
I'd like to know how exactly I can pass the looping without driving around... I saw a short explanation in driving school, but I crashed about 13 562 times, nothing GOOD happens! I know I'm not in a team, but hey...I even don't know how to join the team or create some:) (that's for some new topic). Anyway, I enjoyed racing on C56, nice greeting to all pipsqueaks, and to all my Hungarian stunts neighbours:) See you on C57!!
Mislav - Zagreb - Croatia
for that nifty loopcut you need speed. Around 160mph should be enough :) So exercise that double banked corner before the loop a lot. when you arrive to the loop with that speed we can speak about positioning the car to the right place and angle :)
And if you miss 13 562 times, you will have to try it for the 13 563th time, even if you have the speed Zak mentioned. If you practise it enough times, maybe the next time when we will have to drive such a nasty loop, you will need half as many tries as now, and later, maybe even less!
:D
well this is a good track for it, it's quite easy to cut the loop. It was so bloody hard on t Z56!

Really? Then I was very very good or very very lucky, because I did it in 5 minutes. Maybe that's a pity I didn't give another chance to this track to be driven...
WooooHoooouu!!! I did the LOOP! Somehow... I was very fast, around 170... But I'd be thankful if you could describe it anyway, what's the secret, because I just closed my eyes and somehow passed the looping:)

It really was, I couldn't do it so I couldn't improve my time
I respect Chulk for admitting this, you are a fair pipsqueak with a good deal of sportsmanship. ;)

Thanks Akoss, and good luck with this new track

Akoss won't score, his time is up. :P
Chulk: somehow I think we will have a personal battle this month for the podium. Dunno why but I feel our match will be the sharpest this time. :)

I hope so, even if I don't get the podium it would be great to be forth and it would be very motivating to fight with you for it!!
Haha I have crashed at least 50.000 times, during my playing in loops... :-D
It's funny. I try this a few times and I crash, so I get bored of it and stop trying, and a few runs later I run into the same looping accidentally and I go straight through... :o
There's no secure solution to cut it - you need the luck and the right moment too.

And the appropriated speed. ;)
High RPM is essential...
BJ: not always, sometimes a little braking helps more... but usually it's an advantage.
It might, but that's only because braking is the only sanction you have. You can't use a nitro boost to speed up quickly. It's all about going through at the right speed and angle, and the speed can be adjusted only by braking. But it's always easier to get through in the top of third gear rather than the bottom of 4th, and in the top of 4th rather than the bottom of 5th. That's my experience anyway...
Too much talk about a single track element. None of them are interesting individually but if you combine elements and corners, you will get special things... :)
