I see.  It's really hard to get through without touching any cars.  Also, I've seen points added for cars I haven't touched (as far as I know), so I'm not sure what's up with that.  I could be wrong.

Ya, figured that out. :)  Nice that you can jump over "wall" sections, especially when they're narrow and curvy (the rocky parts).

if the road if full width you can also jump off the screen and land on the other
side of the screen but only when the screen is widest

That's interesting; I hadn't noticed that.  I can't think of a practical use for it at the moment, but it's good to know, thanks.

The only problem I get with that strategy is that if you're in the air when a jump is coming up, you're screwed.  Goes back to the importance of memorizing the tracks.

Despite me being horrible at it, it's a fun game.  I'll have another go or twelve after dinner, I think.
Comtek:

DrFrag:
I've still been playing this, but I can never clear more than 3 or 4 rounds without hitting another car.  I think I've peaked.
Comtek:
TIP: i commit suicide if need be to avoid em can stand to lose a man sometimes two on a frame
50,000 earns you at least one man sometimes two
DrFrag:
Yep, I've been doing that.  Particularly those narrow roads where they drive under you.  :angry: (I'm not really that angry, I just wanted a chance to use that smiley)
