    Players who never lose

    I observed that some players, i.e. Mariusz-TFG or potato..., just NEVER lose in the bunker. They spend zillions of golden tickets, if necessary to win. I think it is impossible to collect an infinite stash of tickets, which brings me to the conclusion that they spend incredible amounts of cash for the tickets.

    What's up with those guys??

    Never spent money; never will. I can get to Legends any time (and did back in the early days for grinding the chip shop tracks) but personally detest the bunker. I only do bunker now up to rank 10 max, in order to get the re-released old "rank 1" tracks that RL drops back in there from time to time (like they did this season). Its pretty rare for me to have a decent challenge in the bunker given my playing habits; maybe once every few seasons.

    But here is the deal; I have 6100+ tickets I made way back then; got them via gifting (having 500+ friends was wonderful back then). I EARNED them and many other old-timers did too, and I'll use them when and where I please. And considering how rarely I need to use them... I get as much as I spend so they arent running out. If I beat some really good rider into dust while on my way to the occasional rank 10..... I am sure his ego will get over it.

    (Yes, some folks pay a ton of money... but its their money so I dont begrudge them that if it makes them happy. But not everyone does it via money)

    the secret is, drive to a Legend without extra golden Tickets
    i collected now +7400Gt´s... if i drive a Season then only to a Legend and not more... this season i dont drive... no new rewards and i lose more and more the interest of this game...
    i was an Top20 Player on IOS, fall back in Top300 but i have many Tracks open... drove last days alittle bit with the new SpeedBike T1 Tracks (Bandito) for 10 minutes on a Day...
    I leave more and more from the game...
    I know Mariusz, i drove sometimes vs him in Bunker and i won only with my free Tickets but he is an nice Rider!!! He help too for an Legend Status.
    I know only one Rider and i m sure he is not beatable in the Bunker, thats KarTanK!!!! he is the best Trials Rider!!!!!

    In my opinion, GTdave is the best rider period. Mostly because he can do things his first try that most others take multiple times to get right when racing a track. He truly gets the physics of the game. And to the threads topic, I have faced a few players that were throwing tons of tickets at a bunker challenge. As did I, which is how I know hahaha. No matter what time I set, they would come back and beat it. That was a learning experience, and one that I refuse to get sucked into again lol. If winning isn't possible with at most a few extra tickets then I loose. And retain my dignity lol

    Both KarTanK (IOS) and GTdave (Android) are insanely good. They get excellent times on tracks almost immediately from what I have seen. I wish there was a way they could both meet in a showdown:
    - same platform (so there is no platform-specific differences)
    - 3 never-before-seen tracks
    - Reride as often as they want in 30 minutes (or an hour?)
    - Best 2 out of 3 times wins.

    That would be fantastic! I do not know kartank, I am an Android user. I just see such an effortless attempt in his (GTdave) ability to hit every point just right at any track. I wish I understood this game as well in that aspect. I have been fortunate enough to have never had to face him in the bunker lololol. I looked around, and I see now what you guys mean by kartank on iOS. I wonder if there could ever be a way to make seeing those two faceoff a possibility? And if so, would they accept?

    True dutscher but Bunker Showdowns and Drive for Best times are two difference worlds!!!
    I drove vs many Top 10 - Top 30 Riders and a lot of this guys are Ticket Spenders for win the Showdowns!!!!
    I dont say an Nick Name but i drove vs an Top10 Player (can read the name in your List) for a long time on a low Rank (Rank 13 or 14) and he spended ca 20 Gt´s
    in first 10 Minutes vs me he won but i dont spend extra Tickets in a low Rank
    I like to see flying Tickets

    I can speak only for IOS, and KarTanK is the Best!!!
    My Best Bunker Driver Favourites on IOS are:

    KarTanK
    Alexbyrne79
    Daniel Prima
    Gregory Avry

    ...because this Riders drive Top 20 Times in his first Practice!!!

    Hour. Streamed live in a split screen fashion to see each player's performance in real-time.
