Andrew A on Vega vs. Andrew A | | | Don't be too sure about owning this level, Vega - going forward. I've only played this level a tiny, tiny fraction of the number of times you have - so far, and I bet you thought you had an unbeatable start..
I will be getting to it again at some point soon.
Sleep well.

Still - not a complete waste of time.
Taken approx 0.24 off my TR..
And 25.84 is do-able. |

Vega on Vega vs. Andrew A | | | Just watched the H2H several times and paused at various moments.
At your best point on the map, you are ahead of me by 0.14 when your tire reaches the first rock in the ground on the top plateau.
But as everyone who has ever landed 19.xx on TRW knows, the 2nd half of this map is the hard part. |

Andrew A on Andrew A's game on Riding School | | | Thankyou for that Vega.
I'd call it a slightly glittery, rather than a stellar run, but I can do better if needed.
Oh my goodness! It appears to have... Disappeared!! |

Andrew A on Champ vs. Shane | | | Never done a H2H with these 2 runs before, but I've always considered getting as much drive as possible on the return ultimately quicker.
Th Champ spends too much time in the air - Shane gains a little bit on that return.
I could do with bettering my time here - I've pushed the simplistic but reliable start almost as far as it can go (a touch more left, maybe). It's just not a level I can get enthused about. But I may have too.. |

A very important point being that Shane is a good few frames ahead at the end, but misses the center of the flag. |
|
Andrew A on Champ vs. Shane | | | 'A good few' being 2 or 3.
Normal etiquette about triple posts stopped being relevant a long time ago, btw. When this page sort of turned into an unintentional BOD blog kind of thing. With drop in guest stars.. |
|
Andrew A on Champ vs. Shane | | | This page being the Forum page. Of course. |
|
Vega on Champ vs. Shane | | | The frames on this level are extremely tight at these times. These minuscule differences you are seeing might amount to 3-4 frames.
My stats on this level are staggering... more than 20,000 tries and more than 4,000 completed runs to hit 19.80. Haven't played it since. Sure maybe Th Champ's time is beatable, but there just isn't a lot more to explore on this map.
Watch the top 5 runs on H2H. Never once do any of the bikes separate themselves from the pack. It's as if they are all bungeed to each other. Have a looksee: Champ vs. 4 others |

Snappin' at your heels Vega.. |

Andrew A on Andrew A's game on Double Sprint | | | Slap me with a wet kipper - that was quick!
4th. Not too shabby |
