I will be doing this one. It's been ages since I've been verifying runs.
edit: the runner says there is audio background chatter in some of the levels but I don't hear it, I'm playing video in VLC.

V/A: great
Cheating: none
broke the record in all IL. nothing more to say. Accept ~~unless the audio chatter is there and needs muting for now~~

Faster times, newer strats. I specifically listened to the courses mentioned in the comments very carefully. Amazon Temple Trail is one the runner stated, but that level doesn't exist, but I heard no issues with Amazon Adventure Alley or Adventure Temple Trail, as I assume the runner meant one of those two levels. Runner also mentioned possible audio issues with Pirate Skull Pass, and I was unable again to hear said audio issues. Maybe others can, my hearing isn't exactly the greatest.

Overall, with video and audio, it seemed good. I saw no cheating or signs of cheating, just better routing. Quick question: Are not the videos by RbdJellyFish on SDA from the N64 version of the game? I can't tell any significant changes in the ILs or anything of the sort, but will these new ILs be placed in a separate place due to being PC? Is there anybody here that knows if there would be any differences between N64 and PC in this case? As I said, I couldn't tell any difference, but I may simply be wrong.

In short, Accept for me unless people with more sensitive ears can hear this "background chatter".

I had mentioned to the Verification crew when I submitted that those two tracks had other audio, so I didn't submit them and ran new times so I wouldn't have that problem. Near the top of my LEGO Racers playlist on Youtube has the additional audio. Hope that clarifies that problem.

Ok, that makes more sense. Your comments about potential sound issues are still in the notes is all.

There's a word for that

RJF's runs were done on the PC version too.

I'll add in another accept for these improvements. The videos still have some extra footage from before and after the time trials, I assume these will need to be trimmed before they get posted? Otherwise no issues, great to see this game getting some updates.

If I got my second lap to my current best, I can shave off another 0.4 seconds. I have no idea is 1:10.00 can be subbed. Not unless I get a lap that's better than my current splits.

Improvement submitted for the race 'Tribal Island Trail' (1'17'70).

The Tribal Island Trail improvement checks out. From the looks of it it's the same route, just slightly better played. Nice work!
Now let's get this published before the next improvement comes in!

it's the same route, same bounces on the first 2 laps, and better strat the rest of the track.
