Rats! You took my third place position! I guess I'll have to give this another go just to get my 3rd place back.

Neohound:

OK try this to see if it works first of all:

1'42 Replay with Alpine car (normal)

Should work with all DC browsers, originated from a Japanese Dream Passport sender so a bit of work was required to strip off the file encryption.

I play SR2 in VGA 60hz however I lock the framerate to 30FPS otherwise it jumps all over the place. This is done via a code at the start. It does make the game slower but a consistent framerate is essential in any racer!

Sorry Alec, was talking to my nephew earlier, who is called Alex - Freudian slip lol

Thanks for that Rjay :) I probably won't be able to give that a go before this comp ends, as it has just taken me all evening to locate my BBA......only to find that I don't possess an ethernet cable ! :x

Couldn't resist having a 'midnight session', but just fell short of breaking 1 min 50 secs :( How close can you get ?!! Damn !!

Oh well, I suppose it's not too bad for an old git :)

Aww man! I don't think I have a chance now. I haven't gotten around to trying again but I will try a few more times before the competition ends tomorrow.

I see you followed the same lines as I did, only with better timing and technique.

The problem I have is with that last turn. How do you guys make it so perfectly? I usually just try and brake but as little as possible.
