Akagi DH 1st sharp left turn....(Ver. 3 Only)
-
What is a good speed to do this turn in VERSION 3, not ver. 2. i everytime very lousy at this turn.
-
Depends on what car you are using...my R34 can only turn at 120-125...RX8 and FD for example can turn at 125-130...that is what you should be aiming for..
-
that means i'm really lousy.... my speed is FAR FROM 125-130.... i use tofu car some more... can go and commit suicide liao. in the good old ver.2 days, i remember seeing an integra do 145 if i'm not mistaken.
when should i start braking? the moment i finish turning the slight right turn? -
ermm that would be a little too early..you know there is a little gutter on the right? go inside that and then release the accel early and brake early, while steering towards the apex..when you feel safe after clearing it, press back the accel..another factor is after coming out of the slight right, your car should be straight, not facing the right, or else your car will wheel-lock on that left turn..Originally posted by jb_koala:that means i'm really lousy.... my speed is FAR FROM 125-130.... i use tofu car some more... can go and commit suicide liao. in the good old ver.2 days, i remember seeing an integra do 145 if i'm not mistaken.

woah, words of wisdom from the akagi specialist. i didnt noe there was a gutter ler. next time i keep my eyes open. coz my eyes is naturally half open all the time(true). i'll take ur advice, and try out. that is after my wrist injury heals, coz play too much. he he
-
Hehe my timing for R34 average only la...2'28...top time by those hongkongers for the R34 is 2'26...so i'm lagging two or three seconds behind those crazy pros...
-
my time is ard 2'32 i think. coz i just cant drive fast during the 1st half of the course. all those tricky corners.....
1st turn already die everytime. but i think if i'm not mistaken the time i saw at clementi was 2'21. by a tofu car. 
-
hehe ya trueno one of the top cars on akagi now ma...at least should get 2.25 for truenoOriginally posted by jb_koala:my time is ard 2'32 i think. coz i just cant drive fast during the 1st half of the course. all those tricky corners..... 1st turn already die everytime. but i think if i'm not mistaken the time i saw at clementi was 2'21. by a tofu car. hehe those tricky first few corners just go out-in-out can liao...always prepare for the next corner after you come out of one in consecutives... -
hmm... 2'25... i'll set that as my goal then. but it's gonna be a long long way~~
-
can one la...one or two months should be able to liao...Originally posted by jb_koala:hmm... 2'25... i'll set that as my goal then. but it's gonna be a long long way~~

my rx-8 can turn at 126 at dry... but 120 at wet... is it too slow?Originally posted by HIRA:Depends on what car you are using...my R34 can only turn at 120-125...RX8 and FD for example can turn at 125-130...that is what you should be aiming for..
i think ER34 is oso quite good in akagi... i hav a fren who uses ER34 n beat quite alot of pp in akagi wif a very good timin,,, cant remember the time liao.... maybe next time i play wif him i see the timin -
i wonder at what speed does the toughest crazy bunta does this corner....
-

then what is ur speed for the last 4 hairpins? i find it very different from ver2. ver2, u can do 150-152, but ver3.... slow down a lot ler...
-
hmm i didnt really take note...i will go and check...Originally posted by jb_koala:then what is ur speed for the last 4 hairpins? i find it very different from ver2. ver2, u can do 150-152, but ver3.... slow down a lot ler... 
but for those 4 consecutive hairpins, you might not need to step brake at all for the trueno...because for my R34, i only step my brake for the first turn of that last 4 hairpins... the rest release accel early and tap it during the turn...oh ya got 2'27 today... 
-
dont noe ler.... i can only manage 130+ with my tofu car with feint drifting thru between hairpins. i think i reach the 1st hairpin with more than 140. so, dont noe why cannot turn.
-
hmm feinting...my R34 cannot feint one....lol..will understeer....but 86 should be to i guess...why not try without feinting first? usually people get fast with conventional methods first, then after that when they cant break any further, they use feint...Originally posted by jb_koala:dont noe ler.... i can only manage 130+ with my tofu car with feint drifting thru between hairpins. i think i reach the 1st hairpin with more than 140. so, dont noe why cannot turn. -
dont noe ler, its not i dont want to do it normally. coz i cant. after i finish the 1st turn, b4 i noe it, the 2nd comes and my car is facing the opposite direction, so dont noe what to do then might as well just feint lor or else i eat wall gau gau.. he he....
or mayb is my line and i turn too late.... dont noe lar. i'm just lousy. wrist injured now, so cannot play for a while liao. -
I got question, so now in Akagi UH and DH, the best car is no longer the RX7? Or is it that the other cars like Skyline and 86 are now almost on par with RX7 for Akagi?
I also realise that RX8 performance is better than RX7 on wet conditions and RX7 is better on dry, correct? -
hmmm there seems to be no defined best car on akagi...you wont believe it, but the S14Q's is now top of the akagi ranking, but only by milliseconds...other good cars on akagi are the trueno, RX7 (all three of them), and the RX8.. RX7 and RX8 are pretty equal on Akagi..Spirit R is better than both of them on wet, but weaker on dry...and errr skyline still sucks on akagi..unless you play wet...R32 is king of wet now..Originally posted by Impreza WRX:I got question, so now in Akagi UH and DH, the best car is no longer the RX7?

modified quote from Pince of Tennis - "Are u so weak until u hv to rely on very easy handling to perform well?" I think this sentence is quite meaningful, always gave me confidence.
