So, seeing there's an F-zero X on the speed list, why not F-zero GX? Who's up to it?

I just registered for being able to reply ;p

Well, making a F-Zero GX videos page would be REALLY hard, as there a lots of way to play.
In the competetion, there are two ladders: Max speed ladder (custom vehicules allowed, but you must play at 100% setting so Snaking and Spaceflying are not allowed)
Oppen ladder: You play as you want, all techniques allowed, and all settings also. Naturaly if you decide to play in the oppen ladder, it's that you use Spaceflying or snaking.
The last way to play is with non custom wehicules, 100% setting, other techniques than snaking and spacefly allowed...

So you see, I wonder how we can do. But if we have to choose between those 3 ways to play, I would be up for the non-custom one. It's the more accesible.

Personaly, I play max speed with custom, but also a little non custom. The list of the non customs WR is here:

I love YaBB 1G - SP1!
There are already videos up at http://www.mrfixitonline.com (it's down for me right now). Thats the reason why I never started with time trials.
Yea but there are also F Zero X videos on MFO.
I downloaded vids from MFO, and as my usual intent to download "the best of each course" vids, I ended up making 3 categories for each race:

Normal, no snaking or space flying, max speed doesn't matter.
Snaking.
Space Flying, if available.

My question is, why is Max Speed always chosen? Does having max speed make you unable to snake or something? Or is it just, max speed would always be the best choice otherwise?

Snaking and Spaceflying times are always faster than max speed times. But most of the players play max speed, personaly I find that much interesting.

The reason i think non custom max speed would be better is that some japanese players have baned custom vehicules.
There would be 3 sections:

Max Speed
Snaking
Flying

Those are the main play styles used, there's no need to go into the non-custom or non-technique styles.

One of the more hardcore F-Zero GX players will hopefully be able to confirm this, but I believe the answer to this question is "yes, it does make you unable to snake."
trust the fungus
I'm decent - good at GX, but not nearly world-class. I'd love some videos if anyone's willing to do them. I think that custom vehicles should be allowed, but not techniques that take advantage of the game's physics like snaking or momentum. those feel like cheating to me, and plus snaking hurts my hands so freaking bad.

I'm pretty sure you can't snake if at max top speed. you have to be at or near max acceleration to do so.

GX videos are boring without techniques. If FZX techs are allowed on SDA, why not GX techs?
If they are not allowed, it s completely useless to update them on SDA...

Thats' right, you can't snake at max speed. You can spacefly on a track like big blue ordeal though ( but you get a worst time than at 0%)
What iowa said is true. GX videos without techiques are sleep material.
