Very well done. :) So much of the information put into such a relatively short video. There are only minor things that I would have added or that maybe come a bit unclear. For example: - It sounds as if you could use the backwards trick on many maps, but in fact the maps need to have certain criterias so that backwards can be faster. In Canyon it was difficult to find any map and back then as well as nowadays: there is no Canyon campaign map where the record drives backwards. The first maps where I got a record were multilap maps, so that I don't have the time loss at the start. -Starting with kb only makes sense when you drive forwards and turn around in a start jump. You can’t wiggle backwards with normal keyboard. But still: using multiple devices with different dxtweak settings would be the solution. The wiggles are most powerful the more you steer, just right before sliding out. If you use extreme settings of dxtweak just for the high velocity in the end, you will have bad wiggles as you don’t steer enough. Only with a joystick or steering wheel it could work to only use one device for the best possible outcome due to its precision. Otherwise you would need to have multiple devices, each one with different max steering for the different speeds.. but then the question is: is that cheating then? - In 2017 we already knew that backwards driving is still faster, but without knowing about the wiggling it took just very long until the car got fast enough. We did that on short circle maps on an online server. Also on Valley A05: without wiggling it needs 10 Laps, but then you will be faster than forwards (as you need to steer in the 2 corners each lap anyway). So you could beat Dedi records on Multilap maps online in TimeAttack. But for normal start to finish the acceleration to these speeds took too long.
