That's odd, because normally the first credits are the most important to make. After that you get an avalanche like effect: with more money you can make even more money faster and faster.

Of course not :roll:
But you are all free to upload a better time if you manage to do so to improve your chances.
Come watch me on Twitch where I occasionally play several of the X games

@gandy|UKCS
My first try was 4h59m. With a bit of thought and luck could get at least 2h30m off that.
Good luck with yours :)

im down south as well and there is no rain, in the shade its about 24c and the sun is out and the red arrows have also been out ( i live just over 2 miles from the airport they took off from ).

Back on Topic..

I hope everyone is doing really well with this comp. Im not going to retry any more to get a better time as i cant see how i can beat the time i have.
