Another staff ghost question..
« Thread started on: Aug 22nd, 2003, 6:32pm »

On the PAL copy of the game, has anyone else noticed the fact that, on the second lap of Red Canyon 2, the staff ghost suddenly gets 2 seconds from nowhere? The clock doesn't gradually increase by 2, it literally just gets added-on instantly. It's just after the bit where you take-off, if you're going too fast..

Is he doing some strange technique, or is he just a cheating bastard..?

With the speed you gain by sliding the turn b4 the peak of the hill, you have enough speed to lift off easily, then all he does is steer down back onto the level, no cheating involved.

The staff ghost on RC 2 used one of the two shortcuts of the game.

In lap 2 and 3 he boostslides and after the takeoff he flies all the way into the grey hairpin section and after he lands there the gap clock will be updated, that are the 2 seconds from nowhere.
