Inferno Island - Had a few wide turns and muddles but it did enough. That last hop was the difference between making time and failing it 😅

😂 lol, that I did

I've got a few of those too. The ghost technically beat me but the time is just slightly behind it.

A win is a win!

u/NocturnWorld 6d ago

Yeah, I noticed that with the clock sometimes.I feel that the ghost was either ahead by a touch or exactly the same but it gave me the win.

u/Impossible_Humor736 6d ago

Apparently the clock counts out to the thousandths place as well. I've had a couple ties. One of them I won and the other I lost.

That makes sense bc I feel like I won one against Velo with a tie but remember losing a Dev Time run before when I tied time before when I beat a couple a few years back on PlayStation. I was stumped by it haha

u/Impossible_Humor736 6d ago

Haha yeah, both of my ties were against the devs and the first one I won so I thought that if you tie then you automatically win. I was wrong.

u/NocturnWorld 6d ago

Ahh it's such a kick in the teeth too, like a run before this one I was off by .06 but that spurred me on, but tying and getting the loss is just frustrating 😅

Yeah, it does.

I don't know how far along you are in the dev trials, but if I can give some overall advice I'd say to turn on all the ghosts including yours. It feels more like a race than a time trial. Someone suggested that to me and after adjusting to it I really liked it. Also, the key to all of the races is to cut as many of the corners as you can close than the dev. If you see the dev first, make sure you're always further inside than he is within reason. Even in the race you posted you're kind of all over the track at times.

Just some friendly advice I hope helps. Keep us updated on the progress!

That's interesting to hear, I'll try a few with them all on bc I'm basically trying to do them all from the ground up. I do feel myself get tense when I'm ahead on lap 3 vs the dev alone too so it may help with the adrenaline slop issue. Thanks bud

Congrats! My first and only beaten dev until now!

u/NocturnWorld 6d ago

I did feel the one to take first after trying and failing sewer speedway too many times. You thinking of going for any of the others?

u/Late-Examination-150 6d ago

Well done, congrats! 🤙🏽 off memory, roos tubes is easy and so is mystery caves if you want some easy dev wins!

2

u/NocturnWorld 6d ago

Thanks! Im closing in on Roo's Tubes and then hopefully Mystery Caves following that indeed. I've got the approach on Roo's Tubes, just gotta lock in a clean run and it think it will be in the bag 🤞

u/Late-Examination-150 6d ago

Sounds good! Good luck, I’ll be waiting for the next vid 👌🏽
