This was supposed to be a no-reset run to get my sum of best to 35 minutes, but it seems I did a bit more than that. It was a real struggle to not restart at the slightest inconvenience, but I got through it.

man this was nostalgic, and goddamn your cars are all HUGE
Must help with that turn, I def noticed! Lol
@@five12man Think it was only found a couple years ago, but in the 1.0 version of the game, having more bricks on your kart improves your acceleration and top speed slightly. This is fun because it lets speedrunners build custom karts. The frame used also affects the bouncing (like when coming out of a warp on a slope) and everyone has their preferences.
your movement looks so tight and clean! glad to see someone running this game, i look forward to watching your progress!
also i love your car designs, very cool
Thank you very much! I'm glad you like the cars!
Who thought that wormholing all the time actually isn't the most broken thing you can do in this game, it's driving backward!
Devs after first race "nah who needs checkpoints!"
The funny thing is, the checkpoints worked normally in the original 1999 release. This is unique to the 2001 version.
Man this takes me back to my childhood days. And i have to say i am absolutely dumbfounded on the strat for race 3-1! I am a little bit sad that a lot of the tracks just come down to going back and forth along the starting line, but then again the tracks you do actually race look masterfully done! Thanks for the entertaining watch!
Thank you for the really nice comment! The game is still played without the back and forth driving, check out the glitchless leaderboards at speedrun .com/lr (without the space) if you want to see some of it.
I have no idea why I looked up a run for this game but I used to play it a ton as a kid. Funny how many of these old racing games have the exploit of going backwards through the finish line to complete laps haha. Great run!
Thanks!
uou!!!! you are incredible!!! i watch all the video without taking my eyes off the screen, what an insane gameplay!! congratulations.
As a child I thought "Can't I just turn around and drive over the line again?" on the second track, drove only a small circle and then thought "Damn, they thought of that" and now I find out the literally only thought like 30 feet further down the road than a 5 year old did :|
Basically it has nothing to do with how far you have driven but more like the code once detected you have collect the item on the track it assumes you have completed the lap.
@@fann543 and its exclusive to the PC version the PS1 version seems to be normal
I loved this game so much
This brought me back to my childhood, i loved watching your speedrun!
Thank you! I also played this a lot during my childhood too, but I never knew about any of these glitches back then. If you want to see a speedrun without glitches, check out @green_9748. The game does surprisingly hold up today, in enjoyment anyway. You should give it a try again if you have the time!
Incredible, just incredible! I had no idea that there were so many exploits going backwards.
yeah... i guess back then they did not thought of putting so many checkpoints
I mean, in a single player focused game without online leaderboards it doesn't really matter
@@Ekmos- There was no need for more checkpoints in the original 1999 PC version. Driving backwards over the finish in that version discredits the lap. It is only in the N64 and the second PC version in 2001 (which is just a port of the N64 version) that this unintended feature is present.
Insane stuff man!
Thank you!
Really cool, I think I might go try some of those tricks myself now!)) Never heard about those exploits and don't think I ever used handbrake in this game 🤔
Also, I love how on tracks with *wrong way* exploit the game has no problem with you being apparently on sixth place despite being laps ahead🤣
I had seen the glitch on Magma Moon Marathon before trying to speedrun this game, but the others were totally new to me. You should definitively give the game a try, it's pretty fun, though the glitches are only possible on the 2001 PC release and Nintendo 64 version.
@@Corn-Flakes1000 what do you mean "give a try"?))
I've been playing Lego racers since I was like 5!) Though my original disk was lost MANY years ago and my digital version has glitched visuals.
@@DargorthverseI took it from your comment you had not done the glitches before. For help with getting the game to work you should join the LEGO Speedrunning discord server ( discord.com/invite/YHYqrvcfRt ), there's a group there just for LEGO Racers that can help you, even if you do not intend to speedrun.
It's not a handbrake, it's actually powersliding - so you don't lose any speed, you just turn sharper!
Just stumbled upon this having not run the game in almost a decade - I can't believe people are beating my 39 by so much now! And I can't believe I missed the laps skips in batlord and rocket racer :D Nice job on the run!
Edit: What's with the accel + brake when you exit warps? Does that maintain momentum better or something? And does going neutral during a warp make it go further?
Edit 2: Nevermind, I just watched the guide and learned about snap slides!
Thank you very much!
In the last two years we've found that you can do the lap skips on every track, but we've only been able to do it faster on Ice Planet Pathway (not in this run, we found out it's faster afterwards. It's also very difficult with the AI opponents), Knightmare-Athon and Rocket Racer.
Pressing accelerate and brake at the same time makes it so you accelerate/decelerate slower. So by doing it after any kind of boost keeps the higher speed for longer.
Not pressing anything during the warp makes it go further at some places, but for the most part it actually makes the warp shorter. I didn't know it at the time. The reason I didn't press anything is because there is nothing that slows you down in the air. So by pressing accelerate in the air, you're actually slowing yourself down (accelerate takes you toward your normal top speed. When you use any kind of boost, you're above the normal top speed, so accelerating will actually slow you down to the normal top speed). The warp gives you a lot more speed than the other types of boost, if you watch a glitchless run of Desert Adventure Dragway you can see it used to it's full potential.
Wow! 😮
I thought they would have known to put more checkpoints in then just the one right after the finish line.😂 2:48 I don't think I would have ever discovered this funny little trick.
man this run is really well optimized
Nice run 👍
Thank you!!
Is the Indigenous Island a translated non-English title? I remember on my English copy of the game the track was called Tribal Island Trial. Same with Basil the Bat King. In my localization he is known as Basil the Bat Lord.
That's right! The names of the tracks and bosses on the left are direct translations of the Norwegian version to English.
To this day i'm still convinced that all cars you build have the same stats and I think you being able to get the world records with your silly tank cars does rather seem to prove that
The cars you build do have different stats; more bricks placed give you higher top speed and handling, but lower acceleration.
@@Corn-Flakes1000 I thought that only existed in the original 99 release of the game?
The warp sound from the beginning of the video implies this is a 2001 re-release version of the game, which is believed to have slightly different physics.
@@-DeScruff The physics are changed, yes, but the car building still changes the stats I mentioned. The 99 version does have a weight balance mechanic, which 2001 does not, that might be what you're thinking of.
@@Corn-Flakes1000 Thats probably it! okay!
@@Corn-Flakes1000but you play the 1999 version so there is a difference, right?
Nice run, one my favourites as a kid. How come on the last lap of Rocket Racer you went backwards and still finished?
Thanks, it's one of my favourite games from my childhood aswell. On certain versions of the game (Nintendo 64 and 2001 or later on PC), they made it so driving backwards over the finish does not remove a lap. So you can drive to the first checkpoint (at the door to the shortcut), and then backwards to the second checkpoint (where I use the warp boost), and it will count as driving a lap. It is possible to do on every track in the game, but only faster on about half.
is there any way to play this game on windows 10? i feel so much nostalgia watching lego racers vids
On this link there's a written guide to install the game for windows 10: rockraidersunited.com/topic/7571-lego-racers-windows-10-setup-guide/
If you need more help you can join the speedrun discord at discord.com/invite/YHYqrvcfRt , there is a group there for lego racers that can help you.
I just have to ask, because i always wondered: does the way you customize your car has any impact on its performance?
That's a great question! The way you build the car does affect its statistics. The more bricks you have on the car, the higher its top speed and handling will be.
@@Corn-Flakes1000 Is there any downside to having more bricks? Lower acceleration or something?
EDIT: Never mind, I see you addressed this in another comment.
Nice!!
Thank you!
im just wondering now if it somehow you could have a warp at all times, (probably with some cheat) like the second you come out of one warp you can do another one, would you be slower than this.
Once have a bug in this game in my childhood when rocket racer entered warp and was unable to exit it. He just continued to go through entire map with incredible speed and wasn't seen on the track.
How does the shortcut on Rocket Racer Rally work? Why only take it the third lap?
Each track only has 2 checkpoints you need to drive through, so on some it is quicker to turn around after the first checkpoint to drive through the second the other way. On the last track doing so is only faster by a few seconds the lap you do it, and loses time on the next lap, so it should only be done on the last lap.
We can only pray for a checkpoint patch at some point 🙏
How did you guys figure out where the checkpoints are?
Mostly through trial and error, just driving to a certain point then turning around to see if the lap counts. The tracks with really quick skips were found sometime between 1999-2010, but on the other tracks their location was unknown until recently.
How do play it again?
wow
wow!
ruining my chiuldchool in 40 minutes xdd
Bro is abusing CPUs
Nah he clearly used port 1 everyone nows port 1 is faster if I'd used port 1 I would've won too so basically he cheated and it doesn't count and I don't owe him 5€
Jk amazing run
