Im personally in favour of it being a glitch tbh, Long Boost is close to the line anyway. I think any new strat like this which can only be done for a flap should be a glitch. I mean cmon its kinda hard to defend this as a normal way of driving.

Im not taking away from it tho, its pretty damn cool Smiley

For me , it will be weird to allow LB and MB but not IB , its not like a glitch
A trick/SC/Glitch, is something like when you jump over a wall, you use lakitu to pass the line , or when you pass the line when not on the track (gp on bc2 gv3 rr ...)
So i'll be surprised to see that strat nor allowed
And you spoke of normal driving, come on nbt are not normal driving yet , for normal driving we have the non-nbt site ^^

Well i'm no the one who decide but still ...  Smiley

but yea he didnt really explain it to me so i had to search a little how it was done, but if he hadnt been here , we wouldnt have done these rocking new times

so final credits go to pierre in the end

well a lot of players are to be credited to the development of the new MC2 strats & infinity boosts , but in first place we shall congrat polo Smiley

Honestly I love this strat ! Grin The most amazing for a flap I think. Roll Eyes

I think it can't be a glitch or anything else... We just lose about 30 seconds to prepare the flap, as at VL1 and VL2, where we lose about 30 seconds to hit blocks for a flap... Wink

It's tremendous fun, but it doesn't have anything at all to do with karting though.
I still say we should allow it, since we also allowed the LB.  Smiley

yes karel we arent speaking about non nbt driving here Wink  but this strat still remains valid for the main site as its not really a trick or glitch  , and its not abusive , well actually i prefer this strat cos its easy to do and we ll have fun to improve the WR now , also because i didnt really like the LB before (so random LB power) , so this strat is quite welcome for the flap


ps : darkroy i like your vegeta avatar Cheesy

Is it not possible to turn the kart around utilizing the pipejump on the last corner? If someone can turn there it might just help for 5lap . I know I could make a 5lap pr doing that Tongue

Nice job on NTSC Seb Smiley.
I feel bad for Karel, though, because his NTSC LB flap was miles ahead of everyone else.

Well odds are with this new strat, the old strat wont be played much anymore, so it's not unlikely the 12"20 will be the best normal LB lap for a while to come.  Smiley

No need to be sorry anymore anyway, I just got back the flap with IB and brought it to 11"79  Smiley

Meh you stole my WR, bad guy! Angry

I suggest to put in this thread the charts about this new strat at mc2 and get them updated. And this can help these WRs to be pushed at the limit!

I think it can be a nice challenge as this new strat is really cool and the lap becomes a piece of cake when you are used to create IB easily. I think this battle can be close between a lot of players!

I chose these:

Yes, it's not more of a glitch than LB
Yes, to avoid inconsistency with the LB rule
Yes, even though it's a glitch
No, racing like this is no fun
No, this has nothing to do with SMK skills


But I would have rather chose these Wink:

to me it doesn't seem any more glitchy than LB
maybe, to avoid inconsitency with the LB rule
it seems glitchy to me, but I guess we'll never know for sure
racing like this is different, but I prefer non-IB racing (probably because you can only IB on one track... so far)
racing like this feels different from standard SMK time trialing


Keep in mind, though, that it doesn't bother me either way if the IB is allowed or not. I'm undecided on whether I think it should be allowed or not. But, I don't see why it wouldn't be allowed if LB is allowed.

I voted for it. I do not think it is a glitch. Many drive backwards on the VL tracks. What is the damn difference. You are building up speed.

And as far as the LB, you still perform the same strat besides the little extra speed. No different than a really good NBT boost if you ask me.
