roadrunner Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Pole Position - 59,850 Great score! :thumbsup: I was wondering if anyone could get 60K or close to it. That had to be a near perfect run. pole+no crashes and no cars holding you up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jblenkle Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Yes, I got the pole and no crashes...is 60,000 the top score you can get? I came awful close to crashing a couple of times, barely scooting between two cars on turns. Great score! :thumbsup: I was wondering if anyone could get 60K or close to it.

RangerG Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I only got to try it one time: 19,800. It's not working hitting the star key to switch the raceway at the beginning. I need to test the controllers and the machine. I have the Pete's Diagnostic on the Multi-Cart. Are there any instructions for using the Diagnostic cart? I looked around, thanks for any help.

I'm not sure what the max score for this setting is but i think you may have got it. 60K was just a guess, but it looks like i wasn't too far off.

jblenkle Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I'm thinking now that it may be higher...or at least possibly higher especially if the speed bonus kicks in...don't you get extra points if there is time left on the clock? I think I finished with three or four seconds left...haven't been able to break 59k since, but have gotten over 58k a couple of times.

At least for me if i have a good race going i'm better off keeping my eyes on the track and not looking to see how fast i'm going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll resume play in the morning. 61k is still possible as you get 200 per second left and you save a few of those if you can trigger the extra speed. It's not just a display bug, you actually do go faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadrunner Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 I played this game for over an half hour doing the Q lap over and over, i got a boatload of P2's but couldn't get pole. But i did have a crash that took out 2 cars at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zylon Posted April 20, 2013 Author Share Posted April 20, 2013 (edited) New PB- 61,400 No speed bugs were triggered or crushed in this run. Pole+ no crashes+ only 1 real slowdown= Come get some. 62k is likely the max without getting a speed bug boost. I would've needed to save 3 more seconds off this run to get it.

JacobZu7zu7 Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 (edited) Messed up, played the wrong race with 30 mins left... did what I could with time left.... pissed off at myself for wasting time... i can do better. 44,550 Edited April 22, 2013 by JacobZu7zu7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zylon Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 Thanks guys. I'm always in the hunt on this title. The 5200 version is truly one of the brightest shining stars on the platform IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
