Notice the carnage that has happened near/on the NES.

I took some haymakers and even got cut, proving I am not a machine.

I will be trying to roll the score tonight/tomorrow. Santa has brought out the best in me. You truly are an amazing RC player, Sants.



Well done Luke.

I have to work until 7pm tonight, so I don't think I'll have enough time to give it another shot before the final bell rings.
Looks like I'll have to wait another 2 years to challange you again.

Next time, I think it's going to take somebody rolling the score to take the crown.
Hopefully we're both still around NA when R.C. Pro-AM comes up again.

Oh No!

I cannot play tonight as I'll be away from home until probably 3am-ish.
At least I kept 1st place warm for him until today.

I'm calling now he rolls the score.
Good luck Luke.
 



I'm pulling for this as well. You and Luke are in a class of your own when it comes to RC Pro-Am. Seeing a million point score would be amazing.

At some point you guys could have your own one on one contest like Doug and Bimmy did with Double Dragon 2.

I am unsure if I am being careless due to being a little irritated, but I keep losing on level 10-12 now.

Anyone else have that happen?

I did find that it ramped up a bit right around the end of my second time getting "Nintendo", which would be around those levels, yeah.

I don't like these isometric style racing games; I'm glad to have gotten a decent score to put up so I can go back to playing Friday the 13th.

New score page 1. That is it for me. I am disappointed I did not do better and I wish I had given the game some runs throughout the week.

True, but you should be solidly in the top 8 with that score.

I nearly forgot to post this. Just one attempt. No where near my 2015 score. I'm finally done moving (I hope!) so I should have more availability now

Well, I gave it another go today, but wasn't able to improve my score (lost at 48 again, but beat it using a continue).

Oh, and Red... Yes.
That Level is unique for a very specific reason.
If you can break through level 32, the next toughie is really 48. 
Then it's smooth sailing again for a little while.
Hmm?  What is the very specific reason it is unique?

Yeah, it seems loop 3 is the same as 2, so the toughest stages are going to be when 32 and 48 repeat again.

It's not too terrible. The trick is to grab a roll cage each lap. There are four of them, two on the first turn on the inside and two more on opposite ends of the first straightaway. Just have to be careful not to try and double up on the roll cages on the inside turn since they are so close together. There is a good chance orange and green will take off on you. Try and use the roll cage to knock them out since that won't auto trigger them. If you can't stop them, just focus on keeping blue in check with your roll cage, the oil slicks and missles. 
Ha, I try to grab as many roll cages as I can the first lap so the other cars don't get them.  I never had a problem with the other cars passing me when I grab the first two though.  Do you (and Commander Santa) prefer the missiles?  I seem to do better with the bombs.

I no longer fear hell, because I have played R.C. Pro-Am. Just made participation and couldn't snap the pic in time.  





Oh well! Special shout out to Mega Tank and johnnyboy113 for providing the awesome games!

Yes sir! That's a PSP. It even has some chew marks on it and is therefore battle proven!
