QUOTE (marbleberry @ Today at 12:49 AM) | Hakone OB is the reverse track of Hakone IB. =_=" so that, how to do those 2 courses are quite similar.
2'43"xxx WAS my time when I first played MT and found out that Hakone was a challenging course to play.. =_="
Now I'm stuck at 2'29.. And I hit that 2'29s only once.. Never hit that zone again..
On OB, I'm stuck at 2'32.. |
yeah, but running them, they're totally different...
i still cant get into the 29's...
hmm. have to go get my times next time i'm out.

QUOTE (marbleberry @ Today at 12:57 AM) | Not too different - but IMO, OB seems a bit more difficult than IB, coz I started learning Hakone on IB. So that when you play OB, it's a bit confusing coz u found some of the turns that you tackle easily on IB is harder on OB...
Actually, u might wanna try using another "smaller" car for TAing in Hakone... I tried SUPRA already.. And I feel that the car's body is a bit too wide.. But that's only my opinion, coz I usually drive EVO.. So I don't really know how to handle a SUPRA. |
I do have smaller cars... i just cant be bothered... lol
if anything, i'll only go with the Supra... for battle practice...

QUOTE (marbleberry @ Today at 1:14 AM) | Mastering the SUPRA on Hakone should be cool.. Not much ppl attacking Hakone with a Supra.. Actually, just tried the SUPRA once in Inbound, and the result was.. 2'32"4xx, if I'm not mistaken..
I'm just not used to a SUPRA.. >,<
I think coz u've played with the SUPRA for quite a long time.. U should be able to do it ^o^ Go Go Dare !! LoL
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Anyways, might wanna get some more tips on Hakone OB. Still no good at that course.. |
Can't rmb my Hakone times.. =/
Its not easy... but thats the price I pay.. lol
gotta break your record. heh
=P

Here in Sydney (Timezone @ George St, to be specific..)
Hakone OB : 2'28"xxx by pillz Hakone IB : 2'27"7xx (if i'm correct..) by MARK! -> DoriKid in this forum, if I'm not mistaken..
My friend EVE got 2'27"9xx with an EVOLUTION VIII on Inbound.. and his OB time was 2'29"775 with an FD..
My time using S30 was 2'30"0xx.. Which should be 2'29, but I tapped the wall on the last turn, so that I couldn't get 2'29.. and I was like OMGWTF?
@Dare
LOL yeaaa I really wanna go into 29s for IB and 30s for OB >,< that 29 before was just pure luck man.. I can't even get 29s again now man.. >,<

I remember when i got the MR2... first time i ran it i got 31' i on IB if i'm nt mistaken...
but hated the feeling... feels so weird after driving a supra to go to the MR2...
i dont wanna TA it too much, for fear of loosing feel for my supra...
lol
gotta check up on my times though.. hvent ta'ed hakone in ages... when i wanted to practice it i'd just go battle ghosts... same difference. lol

@Dare
Yeah. But in ghost battle u can't really tell which part of the course that you're bad in.. In TAs, they could tell u by checkpoints.. >,<
@furanz
BCNR33 is not too bad in Hakone. Tried TAing OB using that car, achieved 2'33"xxx in OB.. Which is.. somewhat.. SLOW... =_="
It's not really extreme IMO, just.. The car is HUGE.. So that it's quite hard to drive. R33s got almost the same feeling with the R34. But it's just a bit slimmer than the R34, but not really much difference.
Anyways, if you're still struggling with the course, like before, I recommend you the R32 first, then moving on to the "harder" cars. But, starting off with a "harder" car is not a bad idea as well, coz when you use the "easier" car, you won't get any troubles with that.
I started practicing Hakone IB using my R34, in where I got 2'43"xxx for my first try.
@Death_B2KSJ
Come on man, there are heaps of players that is better than me. You might wanna ask their tips for playing Hakone.. I'm still learning how to be faster on Hakone though. Still can't beat eve, mark and pillz here in sydney >,<

@Death_B2KSJ Tried my R34 on OB using 800hp.. I wonder how pillz could get good times using 800hp.. Anyways, if you're running IB, these checkpoints might help you to know which part of the course that you should improve.  That car was using these settings when getting this time : - Stock Aero - Carbon-Fiber Hood (Original) - Stock Wing - Watanabe EightSpoke Rims - Stock Mirrors @pillz COME ON PHIL.. Gimme some hot choc & hakone OB lessons >,<
