Interesting Discovery 

One thing I need to clarify; this trick can only be done going from gear 1 to gear 2. Doing this on gear 2, gear 3 and or gear 4 will only lose time.

That could potentially help push maps such as TMN Race A-7 and TMU StadiumA5 to their respective limits, interesting discovery!

wonder if this could be done in boosters during gear shifts

there is another trick in the X/-X direction. on pad. you can turn the stick 3-5 degrees left/right at the start and get a speed bonus. at KB you can go slightly over the green and immediately turn straight. the main thing is not wider than one wheel. like a boost trick. this will also give a speed bonus.

oh my god wtf this is gonna change everything

3008 ost just sounding good:

is this music from anywhere else other than 3008? I really like it

how did i not found this video yet

I remember seeing this maybe a year ago. I think the video was called “new pf trick” or something

I think this is linked to the reason that speed sliding is actually a thing. In that when driving with 4th gear - passive resistance from sliding is weaker than just rolling. Hence, forcing the car into a stable slide slows you less down than letting the car roll by itself - apply acceleration to the equation and you gain speed faster. Here I think the split second 'engine kill' during the gear up has more passive slowdown when holding acceleration - than when not

So you have to release for one frame from gear 1 to gear 2 but the speed gain only happens after you gear up to gear 4?

Does this have anything to do with airtime over the bump on that start downhill? I'm curious if this saves time on truly flat starts.

How much did this save?

very epic

At what time frame do you start gaining speed?

😮
