weird question but what kind of racing vidya urban legends/myths do you remember while growing up?
>>29013753if u used the purple car in cruisin exotica then u were gay
>>29013753Normies think drifting makes you go faster, or is the fastest way around a corner, brought to you by mariokart.
>>29013871Diddy Kong Racing taught me to constantly toggle my throttle on and off because it’s faster than holding the pedal. I do it every time I drive. Only been through 2 engines this year!
>>29013753all rumors i heard at school/through friends' brothers/etcyou could get into peach's castle at the royal raceway course in mario kart 64.also mario kart 64, there was a way to get off the kart and essentially play super mario 64 with any character. i don't remember what the trick to do it was supposed to be to hypothetically do that though.if you timed a crash right in burnout 2, you'd skip the crash cam after going over the guardrail and could drive around outside the course.
>>29013753Had a friend try to convince me you could get on the Tokyo rooftops in twisted metal 2. When it didn't work he went "guess it's only on the arcade version "
Cars 2, of course.
>>29013753The most popular myth I heard growing up was retards thinking automatics are the same level of fun as a manual. >>29013871And this, I blame intial D before I do Mario kart.
>>29013985>And this, I blame intial D before I do Mario kart.Mario Kart came out years before Initial D.IIRC, it's been decades, but I think Initial D made it mildly clear that drifting isn't generally the fastest way, it was to show that Dagumi was that much of a savant.
>>29013994While you're absolutely correct Mario party came before intial d, I would argue intial d solidified in the normies mind that DORIFTO = SPEEDA' Maybe FnF Tokyo drift had more influence than ID but still, I don't think Mario planted that idea in dummies minds
>>29013996Yeah I agree. An impressionable 13 year old would interpret the manga / show that way. I still think it's fun, I could go for a few episodes.
The muthafuckin green sabre. If you see it coming you better run
>>29013918>if you timed a crash right in burnout 2, you'd skip the crash cam after going over the guardrail and could drive around outside the course.this one is true though innit, but its juts a glitch not a "secret">>29013884>Diddy Kong Racing taught me to constantly toggle my throttle on and off because it’s faster than holding the pedal.fzero also does this
fresh one i just cooked up is that the invader zim soundtrack is recycled from twisted metal black or vise versa.>both release/aired in 2001>both composed by kevin manthei>identical sound/ambiencehttps://youtu.be/hWvggumBEcU?si=5R2Fr1j_6yxh0OIihttps://youtu.be/5sVgmmszOjw?si=6niyVnoWBfQg3rY2two tracks for comparison, I am sure there's got to be one that is nearly identical if I digged harder.
>>29013753Mitsubishi 3000gt was the fastest car on the road.
New York in Midnight Club 2
Not a myth, but I find it funny how nearly every kid figured the radio eitherA: Had a little band living inside the radioB: The bands are at the radio station playing the songs live perfectly every time.
