We use to always do boost off back in the Ver.2 days then we got Ver.3 and the first National tournament started up and we were forced to do boost on. After that it grew on us and made races a lot more fun.

always boost off. with boost off true skill is needed. you can tell ur oponents skill from a boost off match. with boost on a noob can still keep up with you or even pass you. with boost off if you can overtake ur oponent ur better than him if u get out run hes better than you. if ur right at his bumper at the end your ethier equal or better than ur oponent. one thing i like to do when i'm with my friends and theres no one else playing we run boost off leader chaser fashion. i like playing that way the most.

yeah i sorta agree, but i find that in maps such as iro, its based more on experience(which is sorta a part of skill), to know when to turn grin2.gif

But sometimes experience can turn around and bite u when u least expect it.... i recently lost a battle on tsukuba outbound because i turned the first right turn after the long straights at section 3 at a speed of 146 when the limit on that turn was 145.... thus the oversteer kicked in and my opponent who turned at a slower speed managed to catch up and overtake me easily

So sometimes in a boost off battle safety first hehe....

Of course Boost-Off..The game should set Boost-Off as a default rather than Boost-On.Only apply Boost-On when two players brakes.I really hates those jerks who're proud winning a PRO just because of the handicap.. mad.gif

i guess they didn't do that so as to make the game more noob-friendly. Imagine your first battle, boost off. you would be owned ._. crying2.gif

yeah, it takes skill to really block your opponent when he gets that retarded boost. And i think boost on makes it (sorta) more fun since you don't need to get so serious and tensed up, worrying about making a mistake. smile.gif

I prefer boost off. I think it's very fair to have boost on in the battle.

Possibly, if the people that are skill enough will manage to catch up the opponent in front of him/her...

Correct me if I type anything wrong...

Actually it's more fun in Boost Off if You want a close face-to-face Battle..ONLY if both Players are evenly skilled,with Lane Advantages,one would lead the race and the other follow,it'll be like the Battles on the Anime.."One mistake,it's all over"

Boost On for a friendly match with my friends because it's funner when the guy behind you is tailgating your ass. Boost off if the other guy was a noobeater and cocky. But most of the time, I let the opponent choose.
