What did he do ?

No. There are unseen checkpoints on the tracks. You have to pass through all of them.

I've done that flying now on nearl all tracks.
Just have to build the same vehicle as seen in the movie ( think it's called the Garnet Dragon or something ) , stick at at max accel and then simply drive of the track while holding left + L or right + R and you'll fly upwards in a circling motion.

Fun to do for a while .. also while diving down I've alreadu got my speed up to 6050 kph once
looks like 9999 might be the limit but haven't gotten there yet.

Haven't really tried yet to try and save time with it.

I'd like to do what that guy did in port Town. Fly Way up high and see the whole planet from way up there.

Must've taken a while to get all the way up there though. (The timer was at 13 minutes) ^^

Hehe...nice speed, DVM. I take it that there is a limit to how high you can fly, though. It looks like nearly all maxspeed records will depend on flying (as long as you can leave the track at some point). As for the best dive form(s), do you have any ideas yet? Tried doing an awkward DTD?

Ok, I'm going to try and get REALLY high for like 10 minutes and then see how fast you can go.


Jim, as far as I can tell there's no DTD or TDD or anything special you can do in the air when driving normally other than just diving down. As soon as you try and do something fancy in the air by pushing back on the stick your speed drops back to almost zero and you fall back like a rock.

And the DTs ( done by steering left or right + X ) don't do anything special other than just attacking your opponent. They don't help you take corners or they don't add speed in a dive.

Because of this the Time Attack does feel somewhat shallow: it's like racing with a jumper but without the jumping
You do use the shoulder buttons now a lot more though: you don't lose as much speed with them as you did in FZX

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 !

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
