3 mph How do you go 222.3 m.p.h. in a car that only goes 202.5 m.p.h.? Is it the track? Is it all downhill at a steep angle?

It has a couple huge downhill sections, you can really open it up!

No,Ivan's right. Laying in the Diablo (convertible) minimizes wind resistance, enabling you to travel 20 mph above the usual top speed of the car. You also get fewer bugs in your teeth.

If you think he is lying, then explain this run. Lost Vegas, Diablo VT. Top Speed = 227.1 mph Total Time = 8:12.0 Best Lap = 59.4 I have another replay of a run where I hit Top Speed = 229.1 mph, Best Lap = 58.4 seconds. Any doubters can e-mail me for either of these replays. And, its because of really big downhill runs (jumps) on Lost Vegas that the cars will go so much faster than their normal top speed. Lephturn

I though that the top speed for the diablo is 202.5, how did you get that to speed? >>>Why don't we start posting the replays of our best times on the net. It's >>All runs on Lost Vegas in Time Trial mode. >>CAR TIME AVG SPEED TOP SPEED >>Diablo 8:30.6 172.4 mph 222.3 mph

Where the hell is the bonus track on that game? I won all races on the three tracks and didn't get a bonus track! What's that deal with winning twice? Each track? Do you then also get a bonus car with the bonus track? Why does it say winning each track once will get you the bonus track in the manual? What's the scoop? Peter
