TS vs RC

Post by Whiplash » Sun Aug 30, 2009 3:33 pm

I just wonder: does TS improve skill for these races too? :)
Tijny, dede, mike nike and others could be probably good.

well...there was a sommer party from chirch once some years ago where i helped out...
and my uncle organized some racing in form of "who drives the fastest laptime" with a car sized ~20x40 cm and 20cm height..
of course i took part and my laptime on the circuit with tight slaloms, circle driving and a bridge was quite clean and so good that in the end of the day it (still) had a relative big difference to 2nd place laptime
lately when i was playing paintball with friends, there was a rc-circuit next to the paintball area...but actually i did not like the bad view on the track and how you have to steer, so i didnt think that long about taking part at something like that

Nope, humans can defend themselves - pets can't.

Attacking animals is just sick and only the lowest type of person would take pleasure out of attacking a defenseless animal for 'fun'.

Scorpio - I wonder how much 'fun' it would be to throw you into a lion pit and watch them munch on you? It's a bit different when roles are reversed and YOU become the defenseless animal.

there really isn't any kind of contact rules. most of these pros have been racing each other for several years so they all respect for each other. But in a final championship race like the one I posted you will see a little more contact because they all want to win.

when i watched the video i felt like we have to invite them to play sliders ;D
sick final leg 3 there..he overtook him, then made a little mistake and the guy behind makes a mistake on the overtake try...and the rest is like pure sick tight constant fast driving :D
i think i wouldnt be able to do that even if i look at the track from birds eye^^ or if i could control these cards with my keyboard^^
well...maybe with a lot of prac.

hehe, i was also thinking about the frantic s :)
but then i immediately thought to the Datsun and similar cars..
either way, if frantic s or datsun..they are both similar hard to drive with perfect timing :)..so the RC cars might be..
well, rc drivers wont be able to manage driving datsun 10 laps in a row in fewdoll though..or sandycur

first vid i watched from the topic cool rally cars 62km/h amazing speed

cant imagine steering with a car that goes 17m per second the track length on the vid looked something 50m by 25m not to mention to all the sharp corners within this square field.

i always wanted a car like this when i was little but always got 1 of those bad ones which would break after playing 2 weeks with it :lol:

I think that it looks more perfect then it really is. Analysing from the bird aye we could see that for sure. Those cars are just too fast and it's impossible to keep perfect line. They probably drive with very safe lines even we can't see it well. The same thing happened when I just started to play TS with all you guys. Each lap looked perfect for my eyes, but after some years :) I can fallow you by my eyes pretty good. :)
