According to the manual, "It takes weeks to master the simplest high-speed maneuvers, at a terrific cost of life and limb, not to mention boat hardware". Consider it as mastered in this TAS.

Game objectives

  • Emulator used: BizHawk 2.2.1
  • Aims for shortest input
  • Secondarily aims for highest score

Comments

Nothing much to say apart from that you can't go straight forward. The fastest way to complete is go top speed and use only 3 rights or lefts. Using more decreases top speed.
And huge thanks to Alyosha for his many efforts done on A7800 core and his help for recovering my project files.

Fog: Judging.
Fog: Decent looking run, and looks rather straight-forward (despite going side to side while moving forward).
Accepting for Vault.
fsvgm777: Processing.

Well yes, the difficulty really doesn't comes off for the viewer through the video. It's advisable to take a shot for a few seconds to laugh your ass on being so bad (when going with max speed). :) edit: thanks for the encode Spikestuff!
