Ooh I think my second place overall is looking very shaky.

This week's track is trickier to zero fault, should be fun chasing a good time though, I have a good 15 seconds or so to come off mine if I'm hoping to place this week.

Yep, the normal one.

This track is straight wang.

Im not complaining though as I havent even suggested a track for the whole comp although how about some nicer flowing tracks for the next few weeks?

I'll choose some if people like.

I quite like it.  Can't do it mind, and I've only had half an hour on it so that opinion may well change.

I completed the level and retried but the menu from the replay stayed on screen.

More interesting stories after the break.

Cunt of a track, so many places where you can completely fuck a run. Check out my replay for top lols, it was a good run until disaster struck.

Where's everyone placed roughly?  I'd rather not turn it on tonight, but might have to.

Im regularly 2secs up on my time by about check point 3, but only managed to carry through to the waterfall once, and then I fucked up on the next bit. Not sure I'm gonna have time to go any quicker.

Just looked at the leaderboards for this track, and our competition placements.  With T_P currently in 1st this week, and 3 points ahead of me overall, realistically I'm niether going to catch him in final week, nor be caught by the chasing pack (being 14 points ahead of jdanielp), so I think I'll just settle for an hour on this tomorrow night.  I know this could be construed as 'extremely poor form old boy', but the knowledge that I don't really have to play this tonight feels like I've been given the all-clear from a serious illness. 

Spec Ops here I come.

I'll give it a good go tonight, try to get something decent.

Also, three1ne, as you can't be caught you might as well start thinking about your prize. I'm currently not skint so I'd prefer to order sooner rather than later. Amazon.co.uk, any game up to the value of £17.99. Second place gets the 800 points kindly donated by Chazmondo.

Ohh, nice one ta. I believe I said I'd donate a prize this season too. Still happy to do that or if its all covered I'll defo donate for the next season.

I'll take a look over at Amazon now.

I'll also take a look at some possibilities for next week's track.

quite liking the first one as a therapeutically 'easy' one to finish off with, although I'd be happy with the second; the third is a bit too dark for my liking to begin with and looks far more difficult, which means I don't suppose I'd have time to do it justice, but whatever everyone else is happy with really...

I'm guessing that t_p will be wanting the last one just to be awkward as usual

* Okay first one is a bit long, but otherwise not bad, I think there may be relatively long portions that are "too easy to nail". 
* Still quite like the middle one, probably might waste quite a bit of time trying different routes, not sure if that is a good or bad thing (though probably bad for jdp if a good route is found after Tuesday night)
* Third one would definitely induce more colourful language, and would separate the trials men from the trials boys. 

In summary I'm not offended by any of these tracks, think the first one might be a bit boring after a few runs.

The fact that even the guy with a top time clipped an exploding barrel in his video doesn't fill me with confidence.

yeah, that starts to suggest possible Woods Run levels of luck involved in getting enough updraft from the exploding barrel to carry up to the next bit of track as opposed to exploding spectacularly with expletives, which I was doing last night when I found out that Trials hadn't recorded my previous time!
