LOL, I just got a new speed record on Port Town - Aero Dive of 9346 kph ! Landed it as well and took a pic of the record screen.

Talk about an Aero dive indeed

I was climbing for like 10 minutes untill I was nearly into space like in the vid and then just went screaming down.

Now up to the 5th digit !

Must've been quite a view from up there.

so wait, are there rendered graphics up there or something? can you explain what you see? Because this flying thing is starting to sound real interesting...

Well you don't see much.. it's just a black void with the track and the world map circling beneath you and getting ever smaller. Since the map is also circular it kinda gives the impression of being in orbit around a planet.

Tried a few times more but for the moment each time I get around 9400 kph my dive breaks up and I have to start again

so can you see everything up there? like the cars and such?

I'm surprised the game lets you hover there and you don't end up crashing the game or anything...

man, I sure am interested in this all of the sudden

you cant see anything anymore if you are high enough, everything is just becoming smaller and smaller. and at some point there is blackness which is moving more and more over the planet, at around 20mins of flying upwards half of the planet was cowered with this kind of blackness. and than i started diving down, and i was suprised that the counter always seem to restart at 0 when the speed increases at over 9000kmh. so my suggestion is that the counter just counts from 0 up again whenyou reach the 9xxx mark. it happend very often when i was diving, it always restarts so the limit might be 9999, and just the last frame before counting over that mark is saved by the game. so everytime you get another point of the speed which was just your last frame. my record on port town aero dive is now: 9356kmh i could take a picture if you want, or even a video, but it is so easy to reproduce this stuff that i dont feel like taping it. and also a speedranking wouldnt make any sense when you can reach this speeds on nearly every track, perhaps on all of them.

Yeah, you can do it on every course where you can get off the track ( which is nearly all of them ) and it's very easy to do. Really cheapens the speed rankings but I guess that's nothing new in this game.

perhaps if you cause some kind of crazy accident by crashing against the barrier in some special way you can fly off from those tracks like the mobius ring, too.

i dont really think that you can do that without outside help from other cars, but its still a possibility.

Alright, after finally being able to watch the videos, I have to say that it cannot be easy to Dakou, control it, then fly off the track, and then be able to land it and not die. Also, with the invisable checkpoints, I must say, maybe Dakou is a bug, but I don't think flying is. In FZX, they controled it by making it that you fall through the track if you flew to far. So, I don't think GX is that bug, and I'm gonna stop reading Tonio's posts because before I was really hyped up to buy GX, and he brought me right down agian...

Nice to know.
So maxspeed in the rankings is totally pointless if everybody could easily get 9999 on every track...

i still dont think 9999 is the max until somebody reaches it, the counter is always restarting at around 9350. and i am still investigating how to fly off from other tracks were it doesnt seem possible, there is a way on each of them you only need to find it. at the sonic oval i drove the first rounds and than i boosted right to the first corner to crash into the right barrier while pressing right+R. the impact need to be very heavy, so highspeed is needed. you will fly up a little bit and normaly land back on the track but you can manage it to fly upwards after a few tries. if we find a way to reproduce this on all of the other "impossible" tracks a speedranking will be completely useless. and there is still the question why we cant reach a real speedlimit, so it is just luck where the counter saves your maxspeed.

We could always keep the speed records in FZC, but not count them for overall.
