Is there a reason why speedrunners use Angel Kid instead of Devil Kid? Back in Ridge Racer 1 all special class cars had unique characteristics but I find that almost all of them are identical in RR2 which is kinds disappointing ngl. The only unique ones are the Kid cars and that purple pink ish one in special 1 that I can't remember the name of rn. Anyway I read on the WiKi that the two Kid cars are identical and it's just a re-skin and therefore a preference, so do runners use it because it's first in the menu and therefore faster to choose or is there some micro micro difference between them that runners prefer? Just crious. ☺ The second question is manual transition, why? All runners use MT and not AT... why is this? Is it a preference again or can you actually go faster by manually shifting gears somehow? Like is there a manual strat everyone uses? 👀 Oh and sick run btw, I've been trying to beat MAX Tour for 15 years and gave up long ago after having given it a try every year now and again. It is my favourite racer ever and I'm a completionist to the bone and this was the only game I never beat 100% which bothered me my whole life. Got curious and decided to look up speedruns of the game and here I am having watched this run analysing it since you posted it, I got inspired and now... after 15 years... I beat both RR1 and 2 MAX tour on hard no less and MAN... what I rush, so thank you man! 😃 Lastly, speaking of random facts like the one you mentioned about assassins in Finnish in the video, I'm Swedish/Hungarian, so we're brothers in language and culture! 😎So good WR brother! Fekk it, have a like and a sub. 😆
You can maintain speed better with it during drifts, there are differences with how kid cars act when driving. Crinale Kid is only better for Diablo Canyon Road.
@@ALZERI28 Aight, thanks bro! 😊 Don't know if you stopped running this game, but if not then hopefully we'll see another record some day, maybe the cancer max tour of RR1 PSP. 😅🤣 Anyway, thanks again. 👍
@gamma2816 I am going through a bad time in my life and in general, I don't know that what I am going to speedrun, if anything ever again... Not the time to answer that question
@@ALZERI28 Oh man, very sorry to hear that, hopefully whatever it is will go away. I'm not gonna drown you in another book of text but from one stranger to another, I wish you well. Keep it up, stay strong and don't let whatever it is be the end, it's just temporary life crap man, you got this. Edit: I just saw the latest video... I'm so sorry for your loss.

You are real ridge racer.
Why did you start from most difficult to least difficult?
I think it was to relieve my frustration levels, so I could get more races completed without having to restart the run!
@@ALZERI28 huh... that is why... I would do the speedrun, the opposite way of what you did.
Get ready for more run resets😜
I know what I'm doing, I used to do them in regular order, but found that more fun😉
