How come there aren't any times for F-Zero GX? It's only been out a couple of months longer than 1080 (I think), so it still deserves a worthy mention. Personally, I would post my times here, but I've only just started it (only completed 2 cups, still on Chapter 2 of story mode).

So, for the veterans out there, post your times!

I've beaten Goroh, I put my Top Speed (at the settings) to 100%. When you're in the race, and you start racing, let your maximum speed reach it's limit, because the idea is to try and conserve your boosts for through to the final straight.
When you've boosted once (after your Max speed has topped), that'll keep you in good stead for a while. Whilst this is happening though, you've got to keep as straight a line on the track as possible, it's no use swerving left+right turning corners, etc, because your speed will go down. For example: If you have a bend to the left then right, coming up, go as straight as possible, and try and keep skimmed on the edge of the corner (where you're nearly falling off), and you can build plenty of momentum like that; but don't go too far, because you'll fall.
Near the end of the race, you should have about 3 boosts worth of energy left, and it's best to use them here, that's how I beat him.

But the Story after that is a lot harder, and I haven't done it yet.

Heh, I got this game on Friday and It's been very good although it's also very hard. Done the first two cups on Novice and I'm on the 3rd chapter.

For the race with Goroh I boosted twice at the start and then used the rest of the boosts near the end. Just boost past the last couple of boulders and then boost again and you should win as long as you don't slow down because of the boulders.

Stage? Or do you mean chapters? The first one is really easy, it's just a matter of collecting all the rings!

It's the race with Goroh that is impossible...

I can't get past stage 1 on the Story mode. lol! Did it on easy, but I guess you 'have' to pass the first stage on hard to advance? Which is what I can't do! I must be doing something wrong in that game!
