Well a Big Yes from me. I believe this is the first time anyone has ever beaten the 50,000,000 mark on original hardware, with the Correct Normal/Normal settings without using any cheats (or exploits as they are now called). And where better to do it, but in the the Largest Arcade in Europe, live on a well known Cab. The settings look all good to me. Beautiful run John, I knew you had a 50 in the bag.

Thank you @JJT_Defender, its quite difficult to get the test screen, the Technicians are usually very busy.
I will try to ask @MAR if he can.

Also i hope @stella_blue can help. He's very knowledgeable and can identify the setting via game footage alone.

Thanks to everyone so far..

Sorry was supposed to put @MRK

Thanks

The settings are very easily seen anyway, as the amount of time added as you pass each Checkpoint is added in a very defined way. Also the Traffic is also seen easily due to the numbers of Car/Trucks spawning during the different stages is also pre-set for different levels.

Congrats John! The big 50 million is a massive achievement.

A very easy accept.

Hey John,

Another great run!

Congratulations on reaching the 50 million point milestone.

Yes, the Time Adj and Difficulty settings can easily be confirmed by the gameplay alone.

For this submission, the required Normal value has been used for both settings.

With a few adjustments (boost start at the beginning of Stage 1, double or triple median crossover on Stage 5, maximum 293 km/hr for the entirety of Stages 2 and 4), both you and Eddie are capable of taking down the world record.

After more than 34 years, it is time for Richard Jackson to be dethroned. Why not by one of you?

Thanks @stella_blue
by my reckoning i need another 2.3 seconds remaining at the end. that's going to be difficult to find.

I tried the boost start, but fluffed it. ooops
Im not quite familiar with the Double or triple Median crossover.
is that where you sort of hedge hop through the bushes in the middle of the road?

Thanks :)

You will need to finish with roughly 40.8 seconds remaining to break the current record. Basically, you want to minimize the mandatory slowdowns wherever possible, either by tapping the brake pedal, releasing the accelerator for a split second, or clipping the side of the road. Avoid shifting from high to low gear if you can.

There is no “fluffing” allowed in this thread.

I kid you! I relentlessly kid the elite Ferrari drivers.
