It's definitely a goal that's too far out of reach for even the average player, so what chance do noobs stand?

If you're plagued by lag even with nearly-matching skills, the odds are against you from the start.

I totally understand that this is supposed to be an all-inclusive celebration for all players of all skill types, and Gameloft are at fault here for setting the bar nigh-impossibly high. Right from the get-go, we are essentially denied 555 Tokens which should be available to players with even half-decent skills.

Instead, it is catered to either hardcore 24/7 gaming addicts, or rich kids with tons of money to burn. And I get the feeling that THD1 is licking Gameloft's boots big time for all the rep that he gets.

I was hoping for the same thing, but I doubt they will modify the time target. I tried about a dozen times already, but the lag always kills me at that sharp right turn just after the harbor.

Oh well, I'm gonna concentrate on the World Tour too, at least there's a better chance to win that prize!

While I understand your frustrations (I share them too!), please don't lay into  @Feuerrm  for sharing the link. That's not very constructive.

Try to look at it this way. One could either take the share as a smart-ass response, OR choose to watch it and study the techniques behind how the "pros" get their insane times. I chose to do the latter in the hopes that maybe someday I can beat THD1 in a challenge.

A lot of us aren't anywhere near as skilled as THD1, but that shouldn't discourage us from learning to improve our skills, or accepting our limitations and getting rewards some other way.

Remember that competitive spirit that's made us all succeed in this game!
