What is the technical explanation on how you were able to get up to 400 mph at 2:20? Also, does it save that much time and is it rta viable? (It doesn't seem like it would be.)
Normally the backwards speed cap is 95 MPH, however since the speed value is too high to change back to its intended rate, I can keep more than what's possible. The speed here is 220 going into 1st gear and lowers each time you keep it at a lower gear. Since 1st gear is the lowest of the 5 gears it lowers quickly but the speed cap breaks because it's faster than it can calculate, hence why the speed goes past the cap of 262 MPH. I can only go past the speed cap if a car duo pushes me back up past the intended rate. This saves 5 seconds on some tracks, here on LV it saved 0.19s also not impossible RTA, although unlikely.
@@Technickle Has it ever been done in real time by a human? Also, I was confused when you let off the gas toward the end of the last race as I thought you were loosing time. However, I remembered that TAS timing stops after the last input is needed to complete the game. I never would have thought of letting off the gas and have other cars bump you to the finish line. Very creative!
@@nicholas_7r Never been done in real time by a human, it would take a lot of time and effort to even apply it correctly and do it correctly without losing time. The judges and I for the TAS settled on last input being able to reach the finish without needing the movie to be longer. Before this decision was implemented, I used to use the You Qualified screen A press to finish the movie.
