There are also the intermediates. They may be able to beat the N Tropy times and they can win against AIs and can get in good places in online races. I'd say I'm in this category.
Really respect the fact that you didn’t try to just copy the tutorial onto your channel for views and actually had people watch the original video, rare to see these days
and another small tip: Use U-turns *a lot*. I use U-turn on every track, no matter what track it is, it always helps. Learn to use it regularly. At certain times you can save yourself from falling, losing all of your reserves/fire, if you start drifting little bit more towards the walls of the track, then you can use U-turn to not fall and save yourself, etc... So yeah, learn how to use it, and use it regularly. Coming from a player, which by WumpaLewis is called "Gods," so I know what I'm talking about.
Trust me EVERYONE and their mom knows about Airbraking also known as U-Turn by now. Its the biggest gamebraker in the game and makes the handling stat useless. U-Turn is also the reason why Speed characters are god Tier. U-Turn needs to be removed more then anything right now.
It's strange how breaking during the trick does not remove fire But the reason this is, is because you are technically still hitting the gas, just in reverse, however the fire keeps you moving forward
I DID NOT EVEN KNOW THIS WAS A THING XD Thanks for explaining it to me with total sense in a single sentence lol i always thought i had to do separate individual air-brake turns instead of basically leaving the brake on whilst simply hopping and turning. This makes things so much more doable and enticing. I noped out of it before understanding this
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS TIP THIS COULD DEFINITELY HELP IN A LOT OF GAMES! If you only posted this when when I was doing Dragon Mine’s Oxide time trail 🥺
I’ve had the game since day one, religiously played it, and religiously played the original CTR and somehow didn’t pick up on this. I’ve always considered myself to be between the advanced and god-like tier but could never fully make the transition. I was using the “brake only in the air” method and it got me by for the most part but I was always curious how people were still turning even more sharply. It’s interesting that you can actually HOLD the brake button while performing this technique, since that would be the last thing that would come to mind. Definitely going to be grinding time trials after this.
As if our conversation lead to this 😂 I guess you could say that you're a ctr god now. I got a time of 1.42.50 on deep sea driving with the U-turn during the tube section. I'd love to see a video where you do it on deep sea driving. On dragon mines I got a time of 1.27. Without the short cut because screw that.
Haha I wouldn’t say God just yet I can’t always pull this off :p my problem on deep sea driving is the fans in the tube, I can never get through the whole thing without hitting one lmao
@@WumpaLewis I'm pretty sure that I've sent you a video on xbox live. If not then my GT is RAAAHum. It's my latest upload on ctr where I got a time of 1.42.50 on dsd. I reckon you'd be able to beat it after mastering the U-turn.
Currently dealing with the last few Oxide ghosts and have been stuck on Dragon Mine's for a while...gotten really close a few times but the loss of speed on that corkscrew combined with the mine cart are causing me a lot of trouble....will have to try this method now.
So basically this video is about U-Turning? but I'm pretty sure U-Turning on the ground and air braking are not the same (you don't need to hold "down" while air braking).
You missed one type of player: Intermediate. These are the players that aren't new to the game, but haven't quite been able to beat Oxide's ghosts, don't always seem to get the best times, and are having trouble with timing down perfect power-slide boosts. They are fully capable of beating Story mode entirely, and maybe win races now and then, but have a very tough time keeping up with Advanced players.
After playing this game once at my friend's house and I loved it so much but if i get it I don't know what character would be the best for speed and drift
how l many attempts or hours of practice did it take you to pull it off in turbo track? I am starting to get the hang of it but cant put it all together
I've heard of U-Turning before but never really tried it, but I should probably start learning it. Just beat all of Oxides Ghosts the other day so if I use Digital N.Tropy online I need to make sure I'm doing good 🤣
Last time we have Spyro, Hunter and Gnasty Gnorc is in Crash Team Racing Nitro Fueled. We need Elora, Bianca, Professor, Sheila, Bentley, James Byrd, Agent 9, Moneybags, Sorcerers, Ripto, Crush and Gulp
I have 16 tracks left in time trials to beat Dr. N Trophy and its hard to beat his times hes the only character I dont have unlocked ugh im stuck and frustrated because its also hard for me to keep blue fire at all times and do hard turns to main tain my speed
You should have a 4th category for intermediate players. (This class is between begineers and advanced players.) I would consider myself an intermediate player. I am not as good as you but I would not consider myself a begineer. I am good because I have been playing CTR a long time and I understand the tracks. I don't always win but if I don't I get in 2nd or 3rd.
*I don't understand why there isn't a tutorial in the game for this.* I've beaten all the Oxide ghosts and just recently found out about this because I was trying to figure out how the fuck to beat Velo ghosts.
I don't have ps plus so I can't play online but I beat every Oxide ghost on every single track, completed the story mode 101%,hardly mess up anything in races and hard mode is like easy for me I have massive lead every race so I don't know where that puts me on the list of crash team racing nitro fueled players
The reason that I can't hold my USF in some tracks is because that I get hit by 1551561 items at the same time in online lobbies. I defeated Oxide on every track on my FIRST try (except for 3 tracks that took me some time). So I think I'm somewhere between Advanced and God
@@WumpaLewis Trust me man, its agony to try. Took me roughly 3 or 4 weeks, N.Gin's lab, Sewer Speedway and Dragon Mines had me dead. Believe in you man🙌 Love the channel
2:32 "essentially you hold down on the D-pad and hold the break and you can do this" wait. Is that it. Really? Oh cool thanks. How the f*ck does that even work like what. Its DOWN. wouldn't that make your kart go backwards?
U -turn = hold break + down and stear right/left, all on the D-pad, while jumping Airbreak is just let go of acceleration and hold break and stear while in air. This makes your kart do a very tight turn in the air. Just release break before you land!
*How to be good at CTR*
Lewis: U-Turn
*THE END*
Actually he nail this one... i am exactly of player he described .. pro with not great at air braking while hooping ...
xD
Everyone: Here are 10 tricks!
Lewis: Here is ONE Trick!
You should do a collab with polarsaurusrex, he loves this game too!

It took me a bit to get the hang of u-turning as well because I use the joy stick rather than the d-pad I love using it on electron avenue though
Thank you so much for this! I always wondered how the pro players made those big aerial sharp turns!
I dont even play this game but now I know so much more after watching your videos

i agree totally, tis new to me :D
i dont even have this game but i want it so bad, even though i dont have it i still watch your crash videos all the time
The video doesn't exist anymore
Hey man keep these videos up. Yes, many people knew about this already, but it shows the community's active and maybe even helped out some people
Thanks so much! I'm going to try learn this method!
I don't have CTR, I just really like lewis.
lmao same
This is actually helpful Thank you Lewis
The video linked is unnavaiable
I ducking love this videos, keep doing them please!
Practising on Electron Avenue is a great way to do this. Also great if you're farming with a friend for the Wumpa Coin Bonus weekend.
Hold down on the D Pad
Then hold the break button
Gosh I was doing it wrong :o thanks man!
Wow good to see Krunk. Big ups for xbox
You should do a video of you attempting to beat stormy ascent

For everyone who has Android, i made an app called "Bandicoot Soundboard" with all the best sounds and quotes from Crash series! WOAH!
you plug this app on every crash video dude
Wow I watched that exact video and used it for the Pro Challenge for turbo track
U-turning when u perfect it you’ll start using it everywhere and it feels good too
Finnaly new video got my chips and pizza :)
I'm honestly just losing hope that I can be good at this game. Slogging through online kills me inside
new minecraft episode today?
Thank you so much you help me a lot 😉✌️
So basically this video is about U-Turning? but I'm pretty sure U-Turning on the ground and air braking are not the same (you don't need to hold "down" while air braking).
The video is not working 😕
I knew I should check this video before doin' Oxide trial on Turbo Track and Dragon fuckin' Mines
You ever notice Lewis from polarsaurusrex and Lewis look and sound exactly the same? Kinda suspicious to me
I see no Gods up here
*Other than me*
Thanks man that really helped me
What is your gt? Mine is MegumiBandicoot, also on xbox, the anolog stick is alot easier due to the xboxs dpad sucking

While this is great advice. Seriously, you call yourself Advanced? I saw your videos beating the Velo times. You’re one of THEM. A CTR God.

I could never do this and I've been playing for months now. And it's the reason I only use the turn class.
Ahhhh the linked video is now unavailable
Sad to say, analog messes up your turning sometimes. And its hard for me to use dpad.
What's about the matches where the other players turn into Ai mid match and you get credit for placing 1-3rd
I have 16 tracks left in time trials to beat Dr. N Trophy and its hard to beat his times hes the only character I dont have unlocked ugh im stuck and frustrated because its also hard for me to keep blue fire at all times and do hard turns to main tain my speed
I’ve had an idea of this method but haven’t fully nailed it yet
do tell
Dillon Anthony I was just saying I kind of knew about this already but haven’t gotten perfect at it yet
I think there is another tier between beginners and advanced
How would you u turn with advanced controls
I’m more of a beginner. Can you make a you make a video directed more to beginners?
@wumpalewid have u got any world records
Honestly I've kinda just accepted thT I'll never win an online race, but.. thiswas interesting
One trick to get better at Nitro Fueled: Always play the Accel class.
This is how I started but Accel is nerfed compared to CTR(PS1)/CNK! Speed and *maybe* drift are the only engine classes worth a damn in Nitro Fueled.
Me = Beginner
Lewis = Advance
250crash250 = God
You should have a 4th category for intermediate players. (This class is between begineers and advanced players.) I would consider myself an intermediate player.

*I don't understand why there isn't a tutorial in the game for this.*

@@WumpaLewis I know I always either hit the fence or I hit the rock and I can’t beat oxide
