Jjss924 576 Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I can't give advice on driving, but as far as beating randoms goes, I've learned a few tricks. Always host. Use crew created tracks. I use vespucci gp and high life city circuit a lot. Good length and lots of turns. Most folks quit before lap 2. Hairpins always get somebody. Customs off, use Massacro rc, no contact. I win about 90% with randoms. I'm usually 10-20 seconds behind crew members. I hope it helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Con 5,703 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 So I tried to figure this out on my own and still have no clue so I will ask... in stunt races, when going off a ramp and in the air, what's the best course of action? Try and stay as high as possible or try and land as soon as you can? What do you guys do? and does vehicle type play into it? thxs in advance. 1 Quote RSC FILM CLUB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beez 5,091 Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Well getting your wheels on the ground as soon as possible should be the best thing, it is in real life, but this is GTA so I'm not sure. On some ramps I let off the gas just before take off so I don't jump as high or far. There are some that you can over jump. In real life, with motorcycles at least, you need to stay on the gas as you leave the ramp. If you cut the throttle on the jump, the front end drops and you will face plant, DAMHIK. The Omnis does not fly as high or far as other cars in it's class but it flys straight & neutral. The Tropos is similar but it doesnt not come off the jumps straight. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the race is called High Flier, that damn map gets me every time with the jumps as I try hard to hit them up the middle but at times I still miss the landing. Canyon Crossing also has one or two ramps that if I go off center, I'm done. Okay thanks for the feedback Beez. I'm going to go back to landing as soon as possible---it's just that I see people landing way ahead of me and is why I began using the flying assist glitch thing. How does that work too? Sometimes it helps me soar ahead and sometimes not so much, is there a technique? Quote RSC FILM CLUB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeaD_GooN 1,312 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 I have found that on some of the bigger jumps, if you tilt the car to the side (think knife flight), the car will drop faster without losing much speed. Point the nose of the car up or down also makes it drop faster but causes a lot of speed loss. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From my experience getting on the ground quicker is a huge advantage. In this video I was clipped at the start of the race so lots tons of speed compared to the rest of the field and you will see it the effect it had later on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidCore89 7,402 Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 (edited) Is that Zebra stunt race? If so, was gonna post yesterday, that's one of the only stunt races where landing first gives an advantage as the jump trajectory is much more vertical than horizontal. Couple of jumps on City Air are similar. Edited January 17, 2017 by DavidCore89 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you just have to know the ramps quirks. Quote RSC FILM CLUB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just that, but the cars in the air aren't travelling forward at a quick enough rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a created races forum here: http://www.domesticbatterygaming.com/forum/96-created-races/ Just make a new topic for the race in the appropriate subforum. 1 Quote S U N D A Y R A C I N G L E A G U E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
