Gabu~ 0 Posted November 14, 2009 No one can play the pro races, for now, and if that person does, is because [s]he has the shorts and they can't be bought right now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Priiincess 0 Posted November 16, 2009 Has anyone tried running the new pro race yet?? Unfortunately I can't, I have the vest&shoes but I'll have to wait for a while to get the shorts, I've spent all my money on buying coins this week, LOL! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sanakan 0 Posted November 24, 2009 Hey guys~ I recently saw a youtube video showing someone playing the pro race and apparently, you get 200 coins and 20 exp (or is it 30?) for winning... I think that's a little too little...considering that people had to pay 45 cc just for the set... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pouncer 0 Posted November 25, 2009 I can't move my fingers fast enough to have any success in the races, I have tried and tried, but I only won once out of maybe 100+ races. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
myladyyawo 0 Posted November 25, 2009 Thank you Sanakan for letting us know about the video on youtube! Thats a lot of coins to win for a race, but for one race a day, it doesn't seem like enough to spend 45 cash coins on Pouncer, You must have a really fast computer hun. My sister has a lot of trouble clicking on her pet as well moves really fast. Try increasing your page size by hitting the ctrl button on your keyboard and scrolling down with your middle mouse button if you have one, it will make your Internet browser page (only the one you are on increase in size and slow down the game.

Priiincess 0 Posted November 27, 2009 I tried running the Pro Race today&it's REALLY difficult to win My computer is new&I win almost all normal races. If you don't have much luck in the normal races I wouldn't recommend spending 45 PC to get the items needed because chances are you're not going to cross the finishing line first Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiddly Winks 0 Posted November 27, 2009 If you win the Pro race, you get 200 coins. I was lucky, I received all the gear last week for my birthday, otherwise I would not have been able to afford it. I have won two races out of four, so yes, it's very difficult. I tend to do about three or four normal races first, then do the pro race. It's not easy, the shoes are supposed to get rid of banana peels, so if you just have them, race with them, and you won't slip on peels. On the pro race, they have those large cones, so the shoes are not that helpful. The pets flip and sometimes it's distracting. You have to really focus on your pet and ignore the other two. It looks more like they are gymnasts instead of jumping hurdles. It's cute, but I had no idea that you can't race without the 'pro gear'. The fact that the race is hard, and one doesn't always win is rather unfair. But, such as life. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
myladyyawo 0 Posted November 27, 2009 wow, that sounds neat but still not convinced it's worth the 45 ccs lol twiddly winks could you post a picture hun? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiddly Winks 0 Posted November 27, 2009 Here are some pictures from the pro race. Tiddly Winks came in third. So, it's not easy, not even with all the gear. Oh and I noticed that these cones disappear with the shoes just like the banana peels in the regular race. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
myladyyawo 0 Posted November 27, 2009 wow! Thank you for posting your pictures, I've been so curious! do you click on the cones or do you have to jump over them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiddly Winks 0 Posted November 27, 2009 I clicked on them at first, which was easier for me. But, when she wears the shoes, apparantly the cones automatically move out of the way. I will have to pay closer attention and let you know. At first I thought that the shoes didn't get rid of them, and then I noticed that they were shoved out of the way. I am not one hundred percent sure. I'll know for certain after tomorrow's race. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry for the late reply...Welcome, I was curious about it too~ Good luck with the Pro races Tiddly Winks! They look hard.. It's so nice that you got that as a gift...I still think it's a waste of cc...they should at least increase the amount of coins...XD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She later said that if they better CC stuff that week, then she'd have given me something else. It was such a sweet gesture, and I figured that I would put them to use. I'm sort of amused by how the pets flip during the races. But, it's not right that the pet's lose more than they win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
