This track is my nemesis, I simply cannot get the Nadeo time on it after dozens of runs. The last bit seems to require an absolutely perfect landing + speed into it and I got it twice, first time I was dead straight so went into the pole by finish, 2nd time I got a buggy landing and lost it on the line.

Also I swear half the dirt track Nadeo times are nigh on impossible to beat with keyboard.


ARRRRRRRRRRRRGH!

If it didn't require plugging my desktop back in, I'd upload a picture of my perfect 260 medals on all the Nadeo tracks, done entirely with keyboard.

If it makes you feel better though, it's totally doable and just takes hours of frustrating failure. Especially A-06, I think that was the last of the medals that I managed to get. Everything about that track is awful.

I know they are doable but I really have no clue why sometimes on dirt tracks it scrubs a ton of speed off when taking a good line through a corner and how a bad line can somehow maintain speed far better.

These thoughts on the keyboard were partly based off my experience with some of the other TM enviroments where using keys simply scrubs too much speed off cornering. Was wondering if it was partly the same for dirt tracks in stadium.

Yeah, using a keyboard on dirt is probably the worst option. Personally, I don't think using a keyboard on dirt is AS bad as using a keyboard for the other environments (which is just plain AWFUL), but it's definitely still inferior to using something like a pad.

I don't think I'll be switching any time soon though, as I've used a keyboard since I started TM, and at this point I don't play enough where learning a new way to play would actually be worthwhile.

Finally got it! Only lost 0.38 to Nadeo time in last sector and scraped home by 0.02.

Never playing that bloody track again.
