Trackmania 2 Stadium D09 - 38.948 by Cato & Comparison

Описание: This is my first Top 4 in the Trackmania 2 Stadium Solo Campaign.
I couldn't find a faster run than this available on Youtube, so i decided to upload it along with a comparison, to give an idea of what's done well and what could be improved. The comparison-run is a 38.771 by Maciey. I am very satisfied with my start, and midpart was decent aswell. I get through the turns at 00:23 and 00:29 with pretty bad speed, which is also very clear in the comparison. The last drift turn specificly has cost me a lot of good attempts, and even at this point i have no idea how to do it properly at a cosistent basis. Occasionally, i just managed to throw myself through it without losing too much, and this PB was one of those times. I felt fairly confident with the rest of the Track.

I started to hunt this Track, because i found a very consistent way to do the start-trick at same speed as the WR. It motivated me to learn the rest of the Track, and i managed to beat 5'th place (39.055) after some hours. I felt like i could surely beat 4'th place (38.958) aswell, but this happened to be one of my worst decisions in quite a while. I drove 10+ 38.9x runs (Best one of those was a 38.962) before beating it, which i almost find more impressive than my PB run itself... And this is without mentioning all the attempts i failed in the last drift turn.
But eventually i got it, and while the run does have some flaws, i'm happy with the overall result :D
