I have wanted to ask this for 2 days now but I keep forgeting it. David, what vechile are you using to get all of your records. Some of them I can't beat even with dakou! I know that you keep saying you use Death Anchor, but is that the only vechile you use. Also, I have been using Hyper Speeder for my non-dakou records, so do I need a new car, cuz I love the Hyper Speeder, probably because besides the Blue Falcon for earning tickets to get it, all I have been using are Hyper Speeder, and then Wild Goose and Black Bull, te those last two are for dakou.

If I'm not mistaken, most people use Death Anchor...but I could be wrong. I think Hyper Speeder is a good vehicle to start with, I did, but then I heard this vehicle (Death Anchor) maintains a speed of 1115-1130 on average. His turning isn't the best, but after some practice, it shouldn't be too long before you start beating your times.

Yeah I really use the Death Anchor for 90% of the tracks with the setting at max speed.
Some exceptions are the Fat Shark and Black Bull on the straighter high speed tracks where cornering isn't an issue.
Just boost your ass off with the Anchor , never hit the walls and tackle each corner at even the highest speed with that 'drift into leaning' thing.
BTW, if you want THE best car for non-snaking records it's the Frost Lynx G4. ( C - B - B ratings but don't ask me the specific parts
)
It maintains an even higher speed than the Anchor and unlike those 3 ton heavyweights it corners very nicely. Beats the Mute City staff ghost without too many problems and on Sand Ocean I got a 1'53 time on my first serious attempt. Maybe something for later ...

I still am kinda cos I'd like to believe it's the player who makes the diference and not the car.
Just read somewhere on a forum who good this car was and took it for a little ride only to find out it's indeed a killer vehicle. Another illusion gone ..
