dont worry about it just get clean run first then u get better that is wat i have been told by bia@h and thats wat im sticking to. it hasnt failed me yet.

but if u cant run 800hp im sorry ur not garbo i was just annoyed that someone would dis someone elses way of learning, but hey if u wanna learn there are infinite possibilities being fast way which is to run 740 to try and push urself to go all out, but if u smack wall then ur TA is for nothing. and the harder way run 800 until u get clean run these u can f**k up as much as u want and not care cause ur in the learning process. but if u have the mechanics and knowledge of the course then i would suggest u run 760 and just push urself

myself i suck at this course with a 4'36"623 i have a long way to go to reach my goal of a 33 with evo8.

Ahha it's cool. Yep we are always trying to perfect our times but hey I'll let you know something. The best time at the arcade on my island for Hakone is a 4'42"xxx with a Z32 o: so sadly I am not too far off from the record here but seeing that it's 11 seconds away from the vids I watch, it gets me little bit irritated that I'm so far away XD but yep, that is what practice is for.

ohh well if u want to x-out that time in ur arcade just run 740 clean run and u got it lmao-z then just build off it and u will have 37 in no time

Yeah, that actually sounds like a good idea, taking it at 740 instead of 760. I am not ready to tackle the turns at those speeds yet, lol.

yeah...i m going to try 740 for the TA too...have been using 760 all these while...

all i target is pb below '40 and consistent +1 second...now my pb only at '43"1 ><

@GUILover

Hmm......you remind of my fellow altar server in Church who uses 800 HP/D as well for Hakone (on MT3 DX). What makes things interesting though is that he's using an R34 (A6 - Beware of west sun of night).

And that's the thing as from what I know, R34 is currently the most slippery of all Nissan Skylines in the game. Which made me think:
800 HP/D + R34 Skyline + Hakone = slippery as hell

Boy that's gotta be f**king tough as hell to handle........but hey, if that's what works for him, then so be it.

Just sharing something along those lines

P.S.
Though personally, I'd never even dare go past 760 HP/B for Hakone on MT3 DX (or 740 HP/B on regular MT3).

@ blackcyborg009: 800 is to learn the course if u have never played it and u want to learn how to take turns. i run at 760 now and 800 when im outta practice so yea if ur going for learning 800 is wat i use and if ur going for TA boards go 760 is all im saying

I used to run 815 hp with my R34 on Hakone in MT2 days but that was the only hp I ever used on that course XD never learned the course, just tried to block my friends.

825 hp boost on battles on hakone are fun
epic ramming

hakone my favorite course........... i'd go 760 D here no bumps for TA...

So I took that video of me doing Hakone TA, I know it's not fast at all only a 4"45"6xx or something but I'm just hoping if anyone can give me pointers from watching the vid. Sorry, I don't have it up yet but when I do I'll let you guys know ^^ thanks a lot.

link please

if you do 800hp then you'll have to redo hakone AGAIN with 740hp because the sliding is totally different...you basically have to train twice as much just to learn hakone. and clean runs? which do you think is easier to obtain a cleaner run, 740HP or 800? my TA for hakone is 2:29, what is yours?

you should learn hakone at 800hp.

take it from me...i run faster than you in mt3. if you go to pmall I have records on most of the machines, if not, all.

@ EnyCe: 229 for inbound and 231 for outbound... but it doesnt matter for dx being that it is both ways so to run 740 both ways will kill u on inbound when u r coming back

and for last time 800 is for learning how to take turns better and how to chain them cause at 740 ur car will correct itself and now ur going straight when u should already be angled for the next turn.

also dont demerit someones way of helping others its not kool and its not funny. being that it may not work for u thats ok but dont pass judgment on it and say that its flat out bs.

learning it in 800 then going to 760 wont mean you have to learn it again in 740, 760 slides just enough for you to use the experience from learning it with 800
back in mt3 i run '27's

pft

so did i lol

Dude... edit this post ASAP!!! You might be warned!

ohhh dont worry about it he is "ok-ing" me cause he wanted to kno my times cause he thinks i dont kno wat im talking about when im trying to help ppl

but your not disagreeing with me ><

Ohh man, my friend has not uploaded the video yet so I cannot get help just yet but if he uploads the right one, it's actually the fastest time I have so far XD I still don't think I'm going to be trying the course out with 800 hp though I think I might just stick with learning at 760 all the way.

*thumbs up

@waddles
