Here's my best time in practice mode for Joyride. (PC) I tried to record a video with a program called Taksi but it seems to have only captured the bottom centimeter of the screen. lol. A work in progress.

I'm not sure exactly mac haha. I guess a lot of it's just obtaining turbos wherever you get the chance...and not falling off the bike, which I tend to do a lot before I finally get my record breaking run. BTW Ermac I actually did try to break Joyride but I can't even get under 3 minutes. I don't know how alexandre did that. One day I'll figure it out though. The PC version is easier on Joyride, waves don't slow you down as much. 3minutes is great.

Oh...I did not know that. Guess I might never get that fast on my PS then. Definitely not hittin that 2:51. That's insane. But anyway alexandre I'm tryin to upload some videos myself but I'm takin a different approach for now. Just gonna try recording with my phone and upload it to the computer with an SD adapter. Quality probably won't be great but whatever.

Videos hold up much more legit then a screenshot you know? I know you're legit man, on Blackwater and Suicide Swamp...dude i'm dying to see your technique, because i simply can't beat them! I'll be posting my videos soon....Most of your records still got me though man...so I'm working on it!

Okay I have a pretty shitty quality vid of me doing a new record on Blackwater (2:19.3), but if I do the attachment it exceeds the maximum size...by a lot. Suggestions of how to post the video please:)

Wow, alexandre! The PC version seems to be much faster on not only Joyride...but on Snow Blind too! 3:53 is close to impossible on the PS1, best I've ever got is 4:00 even (note this is WITH Stunt Mode on and a great run). And Bear.....make a Youtube, it's fast and easy, I've had mine since 2007. I'm also a guitarist myself, and upload covers on top of these Jet Moto videos. I'll have some of my records that i feel comfy with up soon fellas....should be....mabye 3-4 courses for now, the rest come later if i can ever get Bear beat!

Un-real man! I never thought of trying some of those things you did....I'm going to apply your method on top of mine and see what i can tackle now! ;D For a phone...it's not bad looking at all...i also subbed you...so i can see your updates when you get em. If you sub me...check out some of my gaming vids...and if you're musically interested..i got tons of guitar covers . Well...time to grind this out...see what i can accomplish. Wish me luck, I'm gonna need it!

Well good luck then sir. The time is certainly beatable since I wasn't granted any turbos on the last waterfall. Best advice I could give is to make good use of the brakes. Tough to grasp I know since they "slow" you down, but they also allow you to get in better positions (like being able to do another trick for turbo). Not to mention they can save you from falling off the bike.

I must say bear, that is exciting to watch, even without sound! I hope you post some more videos soon. Also, I've been thinking about what mcniggleston is saying about the PC version being faster than the console version: Wow, alexandre! The PC version seems to be much faster on not only Joyride...but on Snow Blind too! 3:53 is close to impossible on the PS1, best I've ever got is 4:00 even (note this is WITH Stunt Mode on and a great run).
The PC version is easier on Joyride, waves don't slow you down as much. I don't have access to the console right now, so I can't run a side by side comparison myself, but I'm inclined to believe him. So to everyone who does have access to both, it would be cool to hear their thoughts on the two. I am having a blast playing the PC version, but if it isn't a reasonably similar playing experience to that of the console version, then I think it's unfair to treat them that way on leaderboard. The more input there is, the easier it will be to make a good decision.

You're good to go, Alexandre, i also subbed you on Youtube . The only 2 courses i can say are different are Joyride and VERY slightly, Snow Blind. I managed to beat your Snow Blind record on my latest attempt with video, but i was turboing like a madman the whole entire race and almost took out my head like 5 times haha. Earlier i said 2:53 was near impsosible...well it's not....just very challenging on the console...i beat it by only a few seconds (biffed once or twice too though) I'm still working on my latest records before i post them. Some i think i'm nearly maxing out, my Nightmare is ridiculous right now, anyone else wanna give Nightmare a shot? Seems like I'm the only one going at that course =P

Seems like I'm the only one going at that course =P Yeah I'll get around to it at some point. I've tried that one a couple times but I'm not nearly consistent enough to get 3 solid laps in. All in good time.
