Question about IDE

[mullenm14]

how come i run 9.4 when i race everyone but when i spend the 50k and credits i wind up running like 9.6-9.7...why do u run slower for IDE?

[rhs]

i have always wondered this too

[o_O_Tread_O_o]

i dont know why but it has allways been like that

[mullenm14]

atleast im not the only one lol

[KaibiganSi]

I've never understood that either, but it's been like that for as long as I can remember.

[slickNsxy]

its always been like that since i can remember

[tyxben]

The timings are much slower for about .2sec from ur TNT times from the day I can remember

Thanks for correcting my mistake.

[KaibiganSi]

The timings are much slower for about 2sec from ur TNT times from the day I can remember

I thought it was .2 sec. :confused: :confused:

[slickNsxy]

is it .2 secs

playing repeat

[KaibiganSi]

I think so cuz that's what I just said you dolt. :p

[slickNsxy]

dolt. :p

wow thats a word i havent seen in awhile

[KaibiganSi]

I thought you've been on this earth long enough to have heard it used for the first time.

[5litremustang]

i think its because people see the times and think they can beat them so they spend their money and credits and end up not even making the list...wasting credits = a chance someone will buy more = more money for the CI people

[KaibiganSi]

I can see how that would happen. I guess I would expect for the noobs running IDE to ask a vet before they spend cash in order to be on there.

[LuDe]

i dont know about that either :cool:

[luke_morris0]

i tihnk why they do it is exactly that, who wants to give away there real time, so the add roughly 0.2 seconds to there time

[Graeme1]

yea they do cause i ran a guy that has just gone for IDE and it will say he runs 9.6 and he actually runs 9.4s. I always wondered why that is. I dunno true you would want guys to know what you are actually running and then thats a way to win alot more races.

[5litremustang]

actually, that makes more sense than my explanation.

[LuDe]

but if it always is .2 sec..than everyone will know ur real time... :cool:

[shmedvig]

yeah so its not a big secret what your time is...if people arent retarted.

[ND4SPD_]

a bit off topic, but still IDE. have a look at the stats, they are so close, what happens with the tie for domestic? sg-tan and pwnedw00t both ran 9.423 @ 143.59

[shmedvig]

who ever is on top gets it. i think it is the person who ran it last. ...correct me if im wrong.

[LuDe]

the person who ran it first will take the first spot..i saw it too... :cool:

[luke_morris0]

last one to get in tehre, or is it first one, i know i was tied with sgtan for a bit, and i was ahead, i tihnk first tiem posted is the better one

[KaibiganSi]

Yeah I saw that too. What I didn't understand is how the first place time was like 9.423 @ 143.58 and that was ahead of the guys tied at 9.423 @ 143.59. Shouldn't 143.59 be faster than 143.59? Congrats to SG for actually winning and that other guy for coming close to I guess.

[luke_morris0]

yeha sounds a little weird, but if you look at it, they would ahve been different car matt, like ones might take off faster, but peak to early, where as 1 might just have a higher top speed, but a slow take off, very possible
