Then when master this, boost at the time you turn the wheel, so that the loss of speed is reduced. In some areas you happen to do a "minijump": even if there is nothing to make you fly, while pulling the left paddle, your accel is so high that in these areas you're "blown away". first lap:10"6 then 7"8 (once 7"6but he doesn't know why)
also -turn the wheel very smoothly -boost right after the line and keep boosting till you reach the pit zone on the right, then before the next turn, once more after it. that's 4 or 5 boosts per lap. -take the first dash plates on the first lap, for the others, it's better to keep the inside of track |

for the good start at the coutdown, you have to start accel. when 2 disappear and 1 appear in blue. it allows to accel progressively and if you succeed the wheel will vibrate. (with dark condor)
to build dark condor the parts are: body: brave eagle cockpit: dark chaser boost: airloss (?) I found this using a little "customize simulation" on a japanese web page: you select 3 parts and it gives you the name of the car.

can someone please explain in more detail how to race against the staff ghost? and during turbo-drift do you ever let go of the paddle after you are in high speed drift? Or just keep holding paddle for the rest of entire race and just use boost when possible?

I just translate what the japanese player say actually. so sorry for the possible mistakes.
staff ghost : when you select the track if you pull the right paddle you can change your opponent (4 choices). when you're on the last choice on the right, press the brake pedal and... "champion ghost" becomes "staff ghost" in japanese 
for the turbo-drift, don't let go the paddle. seems too easy. boost is not that important. I'll try tomorrow... at last... with the GX memory card!

when you can play AX, it may be useful. I'm trying to resist not to play before I have my mc with a GX file (friday?). |

A few questions that I hope you can kindly answer:
1) 'Boost at the time you turn the wheel.' Do you mean to boost when turning 20 degrees left, or boost when turning back to 0 degrees? If possible, could you please run through the whole procedure again, using your own words?
2) You said that at a few places, your machine will fly, because 'while you are pulling the left paddle, your acceleration will be very high..' Don't you mean the right paddle?? Or do you mean something else?
Thanks.

that's my own words... I'm just French y'know.
start: during the coutdown accel between 2 and 1. then 0: brake (an instant) , turn (20deg), pull the left paddle and keep it pulled till the end... of the race, have the wheel back. I didn't do it myself, can't explain it another way.
2nd lap~: you have to keep pulling the left (yes left) paddle, remember?. boost when you turn (at the entrance of the corners)

Thanks! I just heard that an arcade somewhere in my country (Singapore) has got the game. I'm gonna try it out pretty soon! Hurrah!!

Heh. Good luck trying to find an arcade up here.... Closest place to have one is about 2-3 hours from my place.
Then again..... I'm not keen on driving that (ONE WAY) just to play.

I was just at Arcade Infinity today and they do have the F-Zero AX arcade. 
Since I'm such a n00bie at it, could someone tell me how to get started? I want to build the Dark Condor but how many points to I have to get to buy parts? And what's the best way to get a lot of points?
Thanks in advance.

I tried to do the drifting on AX yesterday.... argh... I failed miserably.
Do you brake before you turn the wheel leftwards by 20 degrees, or after you turned the wheel leftwards?
How do you know if you've succeeded?
This technique works with E grip machines that are light, right?

forget the 20deg stuff. it's only for the start. I set my 1'21 PR by startung the drift at the first corner (brake->turn the wheel->left paddle pulled and keep it pulled) then for each corner you only have to turn the wheel (always having the left paddle pulled). if you lose your drift start (it happens sometimes) it again (brake>turn...) you only need an E-grip I think for drift-turbo. if the car is light you're acceleration will be better
I've played AX around 65 times use rainbow phenix.
to build dark condor, you don't need a certain number of points. all parts have the same price. when you can choose a part among 6 (15000pts), if there is one of dark condor buy it otherwise exit and the next time you're asked to choose the part you may see one of them. I've put the name of the 3 parts of dark condor somewhere on this board
