That may be true late-game, but the first loop there aren't many situations where you are better off with bombs.
I mean, if you can make sure you're able to be lined up to bomb the asshole behind you, you should be able to snag them with a rocket on their way by with a single clean shot. (I tend to get lined up like you're going to bomb and if they run me over to pass they get nuked with a rocket)
Unless you're talking about just laying a sporadic minefield to kill stuff you can't even see.
That said, I never broke into the 300's on this one, since I tended to shoot too many opponents too frequently, making it REALLY hard to proceed very far in the 2nd loop.
Caleb (at least I think it was Caleb47) got a score in the mid-to-upper 300's that beat Tom's 330k score from a couple of years ago, so I'd be interested to hear how far he went to do that and his weapon preferences.
That said, the top two TG scores on this one are 563k and 1MM... makes me wonder how many laps through the game that involves
(unless he's practiced some more on this one, Tom's score, while respectable, is nowhere near the stratosphere of what can be done on this game)
