Title: Burnin' Rubber Highest Qualifying Position?
Post by: tjohnson on 11:06, 16 December 20

I've been playing this game since 1990 :) I think the highest I've ever managed to qualify is 4th which involves slipstreaming other cars to get higher speed Has anyone done any better? Is it even possible to qualify 1st?
Also anyone have a copy of the ROM where accelerate/brake is already mapped to to button 1/2. I prefer using the buttons instead.

Looks like I'm going to have to keep practicing and improving the amount of slipstreaming, he moves at the last second. I think you need to get lucky on the placement of the other cars.

I think he may be taking advantage of some less-than-perfect collision detection...
