I think you should give your bro a kick in the nuts and change the title. A 'tosser' is slang for 'masturbator'.

Hey, Leandro....
I was wondering if you'd give me a little help? I've been playing with p3 today, and was having a hard time getting WW to bump me. I noticed that if I get in front of him right off the bat and then drop my speed to about 200 that he'll bump me up to 450 or so before the turn. Is this what you do, or do you have him bump you in the first turn? Have you noticed which way is faster? Sometimes it seems faster to get in front then slow down, sometimes not. Anyway, thanks in advance for the help. P.S. I'm thinking up part III for your story, keep pumping out the AWESOME times, I'll keep pumping out the AWESOME storyline. 
P.P.S. You live in Brazil? Do you live near any of the Gracie Jiu Jitsu schools?

got pt.3 done, also beat your time on p3! woohoo!
check pt.3 out, it's a little gory, but necessary to work up to the part of you and JBC going to work together- a la Ocean's 11. (Leandro's 11?)

hey nick, sorry i hadnt read this forum until now..
i live in the usa now..but i'm actually going to brazil next week to spend 2 months ( my baby daughter is gona be born ).. but i was born and raised in rio de janeiro and actually between 97 and 99 i practiced jiu jitsu and got a blue belt, one of the gracie academies was pretty close near mine..about a couple of miles or so, its funny u mentioned that cause i'm thinking of when i go back for good ( in about 2 years ) i'm gona get back to training..i love jiu jitsu.
anyway i saw your 1'57"18 a few minutes ago on P3 and decided to get a try and..sorry.. i lowered my time to 1'56"92 with a definate potential to go 1'56'4x..5x... my best first lap is 26"15.. my best 1 boost lap is 22"54 and my best last lap is 22"45 ( cause i slide at the very end so my time is usually better ).. gona try for 3rd overarl for the end of the week
take care
Leo

i cant click in any of your links nick.. dont know why
i still dont know the best way to start a race with the WW.. i just do the boost start.. then wait till he catches up with me... i wonder if there are any better strats..maybe tonio or greg can help us out 
on p3 start i watch the seconds counter..when it gets to 4 seconds i imediately shift to the right.. works almost all the time..

thanks for the help, Leo. maybe if you cut and paste this link in your address box:
http://3xf.suddenlaunch2.com/index.cgi
that might work. I don't think I should post the fanfics on this site, it seemed to cause some hostility before! I'll find some way for you to see these Leandro Fan Fics- they're AWESOME! 
Jiu Jitsu is fun! We've got a Judo club at this community college here, but I'm injured now so I can't train. I've done some small circle Jiu Jitsu (don't know if you've heard of Wally Jay) which is a blast. 
curse you for beating my time. Oh well. Good luck with your kid! (what the hell were you thinking?)

well, this is how i got my 18"91.. 1st boost before the line.. 2nd boost after the second dash plate after u make the big drift turn to the left ( before the narrow road ).and thats pretty much it xcept that after the last dash i calculate pretty good and i actually finish with a drift..but i only use 2 boost.. when i try 3 boosts i cant drift at the end, i just stay inside the track and the fastest lap i've gotten like that was a 18"96. also, u might allready know this nick but the most important part of the track in right before the second to the last dash plate, its important to drift a lotttt and hit the dash right at the front of it.. my best 1 boost lap is 19"32 so far.. good luck

There are 2 delicate point on this race:
1) the turn with the boost 2) and the left turn between the 2 twist after the 2nd dash plate. If you arrive to take your turn with R drift so close to the wall at the left (without touch the twist) you can do a very good time. When i arrive to do this i do 19"15 easily, and a perfect lap for me is 19"09 BUT i was printed the japanese times for all race, and the 2 best time were:
2nd: 21"57 - 19"03 - 19"12 - 19"03 - 19"02 = 1'37"77 1st: (i don't hve the details of laps) = 1'37"75
best first lap: 21"48 for us (21"68 for me) best one lap: 18"89!!! 
You see, we are a poor times
