Conquest Mode - Progress Update Part 7

Finally! I've been waiting on one rival to appear and he finally has. I've spent probably 2 weeks or so looking for him.

Test Drive: NSX Time Attack Tune

I broke up the monotony tonight by testing out beast345's NA2 NSX on Kirigamine downhill. Within a few runs and about 10 minutes I made a few small changes that made a big difference. Check it out here.

Well, I haven't picked up much more for rivals yet, but I did gain a few more prizes as well as conquer some new special events. I also kicked up another sponsor - Technospeed on Yukinoohtani.

Finally getting into some of the good rivals - the conditional ones.

Tokyo Xtreme Racer Drift 2 Hidden Wheels Guide

Most people don't know this, but there is actually several hidden wheels in TXRD2. To attain these wheels, you have to purchase cars from the Used Car Dealer that have them equipped. All hidden wheels share the same design but come in slightly different colors and spoke/lip patterns - they look like Rays VOLK Racing CE28N's.

Conquest Mode - Progress Update Part 4

I've taken down a few more rivals, but I'm definitely getting into the part of the game where time drags out. More and more rivals are dependent upon a particular rival to be beaten or day of the week.

Gettin' them slowly but surely.

Conquest Mode - Progress Update Part 2

After playing the game for a while, I've managed to knock off a few more rivals from the list. I really need to get all the rivals up to Hokkaido beat soon so that I can prepare for the hardships that course brings. Hokkaido is probably the toughest course for me to beat because I hate rally racing.

Conquest Mode - Progress Update Part 1

Well tonight I finally got back to working on my current Conquest Mode save. I was stuck waiting on the next rivals from Aso to appear - basically having to go through day/night mode until I could get to a Wednesday night with clear weather (using a doll).

Wednesday Night Slum

Well I really didn't get much done tonight, between some work on the house and being tired I failed to do much on TXRD2. Hopefully tomorrow night will be better.

Course Crawlin' Spyder - Toyota MR-S Part 3

This morning's runs were too much to handle - couldn't get the drive off my mind all day at work. So when I got home I decided I had to take this car to a course that I absolutely hate - Shiga Kusatsu - and see how well I can do. After racing down the course for about 30-40 minutes I got a fast run with no wall hits.

Here is my standings on the ranking board. My run secured the 27th spot - and the fastest MR2/MR-S for the course.

Course Crawlin' Spyder - Toyota MR-S Part 2

So this morning I decided to get up a little earlier before work and do some racing with the MR-S. As one of my favorite short courses, Kirigamine offers some great corners and grade changes - so that is where I took it. After about 8 runs downhill, I got a time I was satisfied with.

Here is my standings on the ranking board. Currently I'm holding the 35th spot which isn't bad.

Course Crawlin' Spyder - Toyota MR-S Part 1

Tonight I wanted to try my hand at tuning a small mid-engined car for time attack racing. Generally speaking, time attack tuning a rear-wheel drive car is tough for me - most of my configurations are better for sliding, not gripping. I've only taken the car for a test drive down Akagi so I don't know how it will do on the leader boards. The plan is to rank the car tomorrow night when I have time, but for now I'll at least release the tune I have put together.

Old Tunes - Balance In A Drift Car

When building a drift car, throwing large amount of power under the hood won't automatically make it better. At some point a car's power level can become too much for the car to be functional. For this video I wanted to try to show that you can reach a power level that is strong enough to keep the car in motion, yet not so strong that the car spins out.

Old Tunes - Starter Drift Car

I created this tune for people that start playing TXRD2 and get frustrated with building a drift car. With the setup I made, anyone should be able to pick up the controller and throw the car sideways with relative ease.
