I play on Saturn, but I have the PC version too so I might try that and see if that makes any difference for some reason :O

I'm using the PC one, just because it's easier for me to use a keyboard than a controller.  It hurts my thumb holding down the acceleration button on the controller, and the little bit of extra precision (pressing the stick halfway) doesn't really make up for that in my mind.

It doesn't seem to hurt my tag times, at least.  :)

Competition Central / Right, so here's a Sonic R question.

The only exception I'm aware of is Radical City/Reverse, where you can jump through a wall to cut out half of the track. I'd put off submitting that time for now, since it'd make any changes a bit more awkward.

Actually, you can jump that wall going forward too, assuming that we have the same one in mind.  It's got the water on one side and a ramp going up toward the pinball table on the other, right?

I'd tell you that i'm new, but I guess that's pretty obvious.  I signed up to submit a few records for Sonic R, mostly to break the monotony of the current high score table.  I'm not the best racer in the world, but I've always liked the tag mode.  Anyway, I was looking for a list of records for Sonic R, to see how my times matched up, and noticed that a few of the records looked a little high.  I guess that's why I'm here.

I'm not the type of gamer to do hardcore speed runs, and I don't play particularly well, but I have the patience to try a short level a few dozen times until I get it right.
