Gear up, pick your car and show your racing skills! Pick any car you want Play till you beat Race 4 (Mars). Highest score + highest money wins. Participation: Beat race 1 Genre: Racing The contest ends Sunday, 06/27/22 at 11 pm EST. Your user name should be written or typed on a piece of paper and be in the picture for your score to be valid. For speed runs that require video, that is not required.

No screenshots by hitting "print screen" on a computer will be allowed. You must take a picture of your computer monitor.

Dr. Morbis | 2,088 Posted June 19, 2022 Share Posted June 19, 2022 (edited) SCORE EDIT - Okay this is an excellent game, but 64 laps is a lot of racing to have to do to get a single score. Thank God sanity prevailed and we didn't have to play through the whole game! Anyway, here's a starter score; hopefully I'll have some time on Sunday to improve on it: 468,000 + 171,800 = 639,800 SCORE EDIT #2 - This is probably it as I've hit the line of diminishing returns after a couple of hours with this game, and it would take a whole week of gaming to get a decent score. This game is really good though, so I wish I had had time to dedicate to it this week. Anyway stopped at Mars 1 since my Mars 4 score was lower after being forced to buy the next vehicle: 510,150 + 289,950 = 800,100 Edited June 27, 2022 by Dr. Morbis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beta controls I'll have to give it try, but I need to save my energy for Donkey Kong week. Wings and pizza should always go together whenever possible, but then again, I basically live on wings and pizza.

But do you ever get them from two different places on the same night? Likely not. That is the magic of fathers day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the magic of fathers day. Actually yes. I typically have wings for lunch and pick up a pizza elsewhere for dinner. Somehow my cholesterol is normal considering I do it 2-3 times a week. That's the magic of being single without any kids! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PII | 1,885 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 (edited) NOT A CONTEST PIC HERE. @NESfiend Just in case you'd be up for a little side competition.... (I jumped for the finish line of Pluto4 and hit it at zero seconds left for a game over. Other than that I had a good game overall.)

With the opening night score you put up, Ill have enough trouble chasing that. If I get there though, Ill keep going. Thats a big if though.

Ya know, I hear some people drive their space-ship a little better after a couple... Anyway, a bottle of 1792 Full Proof would be just Lovely. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
