Dublin Race!!!

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

I'll have to second this request. I'm probably just a lousy pilot or something, but I'm getting nowhere fast at this mission. I'm not sure it's the ship, I haven't noticed that much of a difference in the handling and speed of a light fighter versus a heavy fighter.

Cut your corners tight and use the strafe keys liberally (A and D on the default setup). That and 4 tries got me thru the mission.

Good luck.

Cruise engines foolios! Engage them AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, and then hug the INSIDE OF THE COURSE.

It's very easy to beat him. Just engage the cruise engine as soon as the cut scene ends. Your speed will already be increasing so don't worry about that.

Hug those curves and go straight when possible. I noticed that at least one case I was able to hit to rings without turning while my oponent did. It's a crucial advantage

Make sure you have batteries..
