The speed loss is due to you hitting the walls. And your car loses speed whenever you turn. Especially when you're in 5th gear. In Tsukuba OB, especially 2nd cp. Turns should be taken while overreving on 4th gear. Learn the basics of how the game operates by going to Akina Lake. |

BTW i saw ur TA youtube videos.. do u even use the brakes at all? i was watching the speedometer and ur speed loss is very minimal.. its like u only lose ur speed bec. of the sudden turning.. CHEERS! |

Errr... yeah (except for Akina Lake) this game focuses on "braking points". If you do not brake at the braking points, your car oversteers and you have lagged accel until the next braking point. | ||

As you're coming up to the turn, when you see the road start to curve, slam on the brakes and turn at the same time until the apex. Downshift, then countersteer and gas it at the same time. |
