HSC9 Round 11: Pole Position


Recommended Posts

trbb, why so many races this round?

And will the best scores for each race/track get added to the all time records?

You know I like to keep things interesting (and come up with new ways of confusing Scalak so I can catch him up... 20pts behind already :D ) Yes I will be adding the best scores from each version/race to the HSC records; this way we have more to go for next time we play, again makes it a bit more fun :) Suggestions always welcome [CLICK]

 

[trbb turns shredder on] ;)

 

I wouldn't want to have to keep track (pun intended) of high scores for 8 races. :-o

Thanks again for all you do for this HSC! :thumbsup:

 

FYI - can we play the 5200 version of Pole Position?

Thanks rr :thumbsup: It's only 4 races (3 each) really as total scores count ;)

Sure if 5200 players want to join in... might need some guidance re the scoring from you and Lead Foot Zylon ;) (Bug or Feature Zylon?!)

 

Tables UPDATED

5200 scores the same as A8. It boils down to which controller the player would rather use, though analog offers more precise steering in this case.

The 227 mph is found only on the A8 program so far. If I trigger the 211 and make it a full lap without hitting anything or leaving the track, sometimes the 227 will come up.

NTSC

Atari GP 2 laps

35,600

Malibu GP 2 laps

39,150

Namco Speedway 2 laps

38,750

remember the 1 and 2 lap series;' must be played in the default order - you can not start with the Atari GP - I'll asume this is just the order you posted them ;)

trbb, you keeping track of pole times for each track too?

I counted 8 races. 3 one lapers, 3 two lapers, and two 8 lapers.

Pole times not required - other times optional - score is all that in counts this round :)

 

Can anyone top 227mph :-o

I posted the scores in alphabetical order.

:thumbsup:

I did better at Malibu 1 lap NTSC 27,950

27,950 looks like the best I can get on the M ver too ;) ... just so were all playing by the same rulez - the 1 and 2 lap series are three goes in a row ending on the Atari GP each time; players can't replay just one of the tracks ;)

 

The Marius ver is a good challenge on PAL (you NTSC guys already have a tough challenge), getting Pole on the Atari GP now takes some doing; even a clean qualifying lap might not be enough. :thumbsup: to Marius1976 (I'll send him a message to let him know were playing :)

rr be interested in your thoughts re NTSC vs Marius; for Qualifying in pole etc; for me the NTSC ver is still way tougher to complete 8 lap race :-o

 

Improved on Pro Challenge (Atari GP, M Ver.)

107,900 454"96 (Pole)

Pole Position by Atari (UK) - PAL - 1Lap

Malibu: 28750

Namco: 29100

Atari: 26250

---------------------

84100

Malibu 8 Laps:

 

Nice scores but if you can play the Marius Version it'll be more of a challenge for you - Same goes to other top PAL players ;)

 

p.s. You're in the Pro Challenge (Atari GP 8 Laps) not the Ham n Eggers Challenge (Malibu GP 8 Laps) It's one race or the other folks; so make your minds up whether you are a top player or not :D roadrunner it's your call on this ;)

@trbb,

for the 8 lap ham and egger challenge, we can only race one version not all 3?

And we can race all 3 versions for everything else?

 

 

edit- nevermind i'm not in the ham in egger challenge, but is there a track record for the PAL Malibu GP 8 lap race?

If not quite a few of us are playing PAL, we can have a good challenge trying to set the record.

ahh sorry trbb! Forget about my previous results. I'll play/try Marius ver, without Ham.

@rr sure you can go for the record for that track if you wish (I'll keep you in the Pro challenge where you belong :thumbsup: ) there are separate records for PAL, NTSC and (now) Marius versions :)

 

@Scalak :thumbsup: I'll leave your PAL scores in as they're keeping firestorm busy ;)

 

Finally managed a 3 poler on the 1 lap series :) bottled it a bit on the Atari GP to make sure I didn't crash

M 27,700 53"35

N 27,900 52"88

A 26,900 58"68

Total 82,500 (Marius Ver)

 

It's looking like this:

Difficulty: the PAL version is easiest all round, the NTSC version is way hardest to complete 6+ laps and the Marius version is hardest to qualify in Pole Position on!

Scoring: the PAL version allows a higher score than NTSC and it's looking like the Marius(PAL) version allows the same scoring as NTSC; so; I've increased the 'fiddle factor' for the tables based on the best scores for each of the three races, in the 1 and 2 lap series', in each version... Checkout the latest TABLES :D

Hi Sikor, photos (and times) are optional - playing is compuslory :grin:

 

Now then guys... alll my goes on the 1 & 2 series' must have paid off cos I just finished the Pro Challenge (Atari GP 8 Lap) with (maybe) 2 crashes on the Marius version - slowed down a lot for laps 7 and 8 as there are loads of cars everywhere but still shaved 7 seconds of my last time to 454"96 and scored 110,300 :-o bet that's not quite enough ... off to check ;-) [Nope! McKong you'll have to let me know what you think - do you remember how many times you crashed / think you can get much more out of PAL... I think there's another couple of thou on my score perhaps from the Marius ver crashes=time+overtakes so we'll stick with straight scores for now for the Pro Challenge M ver.]

Ok, now that 5200 D-factor is done; i can put some real time into this one. ;) I ran through the 1-lap and 2-lap stuff once and even gave the 8-lap Pro a go. Used my NTSC 600xl, though I rather my 5200. I'll probably use 5200 for any future runs of 8-lap pro.

 

1-lap races: all with no crashes and taking the Pole

Malibu- 27,950

Namco- 27,900

Atari GP- 27,800

Total= 83,650

 

2-lap races: all with no crashes and taking the Pole

Malibu- 38,750

Namco- 39,300

Atari GP- 39,200

Total= 117,250

 

8-lap Pro:

Atari GP- 92,900
