Stopping here for lunch...
Its following the upgrade time pattern of the Bronco so far, which means each level now would add another day to the upgrade time (level 10 should take 6 days to upgrade...)
Right now I have a fairly large amount of gems, but I'm not going to use up my stash to skip the wait time to upgrade the KTM. I'll do the slow and cheap way. I'll save my gems for track bundles.
Thats the smart thing to do. We presumably have 2 other Legendary bikes on the way too.... When this gets inconvenient to me I'll stop like a good grinder should... But the last track pack cost me 600 gems I think, and I started today with 4200 gems.Originally Posted by roscious1 Go to original postSometimes I gotta have fun with all that stuff I've hoarded.

And i thought i was doing well with 1000 gems lol.... I better save them and just play the patience game. Nicely done with the info on the upgrades, parts, cost, time requirements, gems, quite helpful, thanks for that.Originally Posted by xitooner Go to original post
@xitooner so you made all upgrades? if so, how it is? much faster then tango?
ps, I completely forgot that there is a bike to make, I start to upgrade now![]()
Well I am at work now, so I cant try it out....all I can do is poke buttons occasionally.Originally Posted by lesorsier Go to original postLater tonight I will probably take it for a spin. I am really not the type to set WRs like GTDave did with it, but I'll let everyone know if I beat a personal best.
(I typically rank in the 100-300 range for most tracks)
The KTM is superior to the Tango at most tracks. Here is proof, 20 minutes and I took the WR.
I do believe that KTM could take some island track WRs, but it would be difficult. I'd say tango and KTM are pretty close to even on challenge tracks. They have different strengths. I would guess that Meloncholy Temple probably remains a Tango track. Refinery Abyss could be a KTM track.
Another note, with a half-upgraded KTM I was able to beat the Tango record at Pike Alley during the first week of the event.
TL;DR, the Tango is inferior at most tracks.
Don't forget about the other Outfit that chops upgrade times in half (50% reduction) If I remember right.....I think it's called The Native Warrior Outfit !!Originally Posted by xitooner Go to original post
So without the Pimpin' Outfit, it's possible to have a Max reduction of 60% with the other outfits.....Just thought I'd mention it as you're posting some stats ok mate !?
!! Keep Up the Great Work.....Enjoy !!![]()
