Strategy/Tips

  • Same strategy as us - completing a circuit isn't worth it
  • Score more points by going for the 5 point junctions
  • Ease in to the speed - don't just pin it
  • Use sensitivity clutch!!
  • Go slow with a payload to prevent toppling
  • Put the lift up a slight amount after dropping it to tighten the string
