how the HELL do you beat Fire Field

Use the fucking force!!

OK so you made it all the way to the end of King League! This is the
last circuit, and it is the only one you do not race, in some form,
in an earlier league. Fire Field is very long. It takes a good
5 minutes to complete a full race, and the pit lane is hidden away
in a neat corner, but you will almost certainly have to use it as this
track is littered with hazards. Immediately you come across mines
on the first straight. I find the easiest way to avoid them is to stick
to the far left. This puts you in a good position for the first corner
too, a tricky hairpin right. Take this as fast as possible and go
through turns 2 and 3 flat out too. Then you come across a tighter
hairpin right, followed immediately by a hairpin left with rough on
the inside. Getting through these two is very hard, but it helps if you
slow down on the way into turn 4, and then stick to the inside of the
corner on the exit, getting you in a good position for the tricky
turn 5. This is then followed by a straight with patchy rough dotted
about on either side. This is probably the best time to use your turbo
as you can cut across the rough without losing speed, and the next
corner is open and can be taken at speed. Next comes yet another
hirpin right, followed by a hairpin left. Both of these you will need
to slow down for. Turn 9 is a gradual right turn with rough on the
outside of part of it. It is a very easy corner to take at speed. Stick
to the inside all the way through to put you in a good position for
turn 10. Turns 10 and 11 are open corner which can be taken at speed.
Next comes a gradual left corner with Magnetic Block Coating on the
inside. Stick to the outside of the corner so you don't slide around
on the red stuff! Then turns 13 and 14 are fairly easy and can be taken
at high speed. Next is a straight where the road splits in two and
there are side-pull magnets on the inside of both. It is quite tight
through here so be careful. At the end of this straight is a right turn.
If you continue straight on through this corner there is a second part
of the track where the pits are hidden away. Try to hit the thin strip
of pit on the entrance to maximise the effect of the pits, and after it
there is a dash zone which makes up for any lost time you sustained
going the long way round the last corner.

This circuit is extremely tough to get round. It will probably take more
than one go to finish in one piece. The only advice I can give is to
be a little more safe than usual. Take the tight corners slowly
and use the start/finish straight to do most of your overtaking. Good
luck!

Turbo: Hmm, tricky one this. Fire Field doesn't really have any places
where a Turbo is particularly beneficial. The best time is probably
after Turn 5 on the straight as it will allow you to go through the
patchy rough quicker.

I used that pink car mostly when I played the game.

There isn't much you can do except not crash. AMAZING

i think it has something to do with my controller, because the wavebird's shoulder buttons suck and i don't like using them to do that L/R thing
