For me i do it for both a and b. Usually i do it when i'm winning a race pretty badly, and to just memorize the course. Sometimes, just practise it for fun and see how good my skills are on a certain map.

Plz reply once u vote.

My skill is no where near doing blind attack, but I guess it could be quite fun.

I turn them off just as we enter a hairpin. More often than not, their concentration will be on taking the line NOT into the wall, and not on where I'm going to pass. Its effect diminishes if you are leading, but its uses remain.

I do it mainly because if I am trailing it gives me advantage since my car is black and to memorize maps

If by blind attak you mean paying a blind guy with a big walking stick to swing it wildly in their direction: yes....





I used to do it if i was behind but at my arcade you cant really, the brightness is so low on it, if your turn the lights off your screen goes B*tch black-all you can see is a dim white thing in front if your on their ass (you cant even really see their brake lights) it sucks sad.gif

I only do blind attack just for fun, but I never do that anymore beside on Usui and Akagi after I realized that my opponents can still see me in their mirror even if turned off my lights on Akina and Iro, not sure about Myogi and Happo tho.
But if I battle seriously I always concetrate hard and no time to put my finger on the start button.

IMO i think blind attack is pretty much pointless even if u have a black car with regular headlights and its still pointless with a car with flip ups with a black body or hood cause you can still see the car

i don't bother with blind attack, if i'm behind and they're blocking me, i'll just mess with their head and not try to hide(cuz most people can see a huge dark thing coming up at them fast...)

None of the above.

I use blind attack for battling against good blockers in my Cappuccino.

However, it depends on the machine's gamma setting.
If the gamma setting is high then I turn off lights off the start line since I'm guaranteed to lose the startup.
If the gamma setting is low then I keep the lights on until I get close enough then I turn off my lights and run with the stuff I see from my opponent's headlights.

I only do it when I play my friends because I almost always lose using the blind attack, still fun though.

Blind Attack is useless (unless your opponent is stupid or blind) because most machines have the brightness turned up but its still fun to do it anyway.
