@@Seppleberry no, ECM is the Elite Community Meet, a real life convention happening near Reading in the UK over the weekend of the 10th August and the scheduled start time I mention on the website is local UK time. Sorry for any confusion.

Excellent and thanks! I probably forgot to boost the volume on the audio for this video but I have for the two mp3 files so hopefully they'll be a bit clearer. Don't forget your headphones! "Press Play" time currently scheduled for 11:40am on the 10th, can't wait!

@@fredh8733 awww thanks! Now that ground site invasions are back again I actually might go out again and see if I can find an Imperial capital ship to try and board. 😄

@@CrazyBite2007 that's cheating! 😆

Thanks! Never say never tho' ... it just takes practice (although admittedly quite a lot! 😆)

Would be pretty much impossible in a Scorpion. That thing's a tank and just doesn't have the agility or boost capability to do something like this.

@@alecturner07 Oh ok, didnt know that.

I sped it up to Shaye speed! 😆

@@alecturner07 Ah. Okay. 😄

Thanks. The interesting thing about this particular course is that we're limited to just 1-pip in ENG which means the usual technique of flying the SRV isn't possible and instead you're forced to mostly stick to the ground and manage the terrain head on.

Not me that's for sure! 😀

Doh! I’ll fix that shortly. Thanks!

Ta! 😎 Hopefully it's a reasonably representative run?

@UC18TJIiNmBEtdVFD3WGaeFA Looks great to me😊

Awesome, thanks!! All hail the algorithm. 😄

Guilty as charged, I definitely imagine myself doing a few grabs now and then! 😂

There's loads of time trials available now, bottom tab on the left hand side under Places. Note that this one may not be the easiest! 😉

It's a gorgeous location which (if I've calculated correctly) should be tidally locked and permanantly lit like this. It's also a great run to practice flyving the SRV, far less slippery than the icey Cayley Barracks run. I'd say breaking the 10 minute barrier is a fantastic goal for any budding SRV flyer to set themselves, eminently doable if you can build up to something like 100m/s.

@@alecturner07 Noted. Might give it a try once I'm back from the black... My recent tries at flywing usually ended with my SRV's wheels pointing into the wrong direction.

Funny you should say that. There are a variety of finish line messages built in to the time trial one of which of which does indeed advocate a "snort of onionhead" 😄

LOL ... yes, maybe that's why they'd seemingly stopped serving by the time I got there! 😆

Thanks! Spent absolutely ages on this one trying to get a couple of the key beat drops to hit exactly on the bounces, really pleased with how it turned put.

meh, I like to work up a thirst for that first pint! 😁

@@alecturner07 🍻 Cheers Big Ears! 🍺

Pretty sure I topped 150m/s at one point (3:29), probably why I hurriedly did a hull repair! 😆. That's about 540km/h according to google.

@@alecturner07 Looking a little closer, in the moment you touch down after your repair, it looks like you reach 160 m/s, which equals 576 kph, which in turn is 357.9 mph. Double whoa.

@@Timberwolf69 currently working on another similar course today and hit 200m/s! It turns out in many ways the biggest problem with these new "bar dash" time trials I'm making is slowing down again! 😂

@@alecturner07 Yeah, our buggies aren't really built for these speeds...

lol - yeah, wouldn't that be interesting to know

Than ramming an asteroid? No (because of the countdown).

Basically for the latest Buckyball race I kept failing to pass through the ring gaps at high speed, time after time crashing out of supercruise. From there the fastest way back to the start line to try again is what you see in this video.

"safe"? What is this "safe" heresy? 😄 Race Dangerous!

That would be ... "interesting". Might need to finder a much shorter piece of music tho! 😆
