Just played it on Easy mode, and it was, well, easy. Maximum score... (sorry about the poor pic by the way, taking a decent photo is harder than getting 140 points).

Easy: 140

Graham Humphrey · 20 July 2008, 16:54

Hmm, medium was a little more challenging. Wonder why it put my score third in the high-score table...?

Medium: 153

john4p · 20 July 2008, 17:10

Lemon is down at the moment...

Easy: 135 (M200)

Medium: 166 (M200)

Hard: 168 (Elan)

Total Score: 135+166+168 = 469

My medium score is also on 3rd position. Weird.

Graham Humphrey · 20 July 2008, 17:15

By the way, if any other Lemoners want to post their score here while it's down (yet again), feel free.

I should imagine the third-place thing in the medium high-score table is some obscure bug.

mailman · 20 July 2008, 17:38

This is not my day for Lotus...

Easy
118

Normal
42

Hard
55

Total: 215

john4p · 20 July 2008, 19:39

Easy: 140 (Elan)

Total Score: 474

20 July 2008, 20:26

Easy: 140

In the Elan, that was so easy.

john4p · 20 July 2008, 21:07

Hard: 249 (Elan)

Total Score: 555

Made it to the final race - but there was no pitstop because of a tunnel after the 5th lap - thus I ran out of fuel. But since I was in 9th position I probably wouldn't have gotten more than another 2 points...

Graham Humphrey · 20 July 2008, 23:15

Hard: 230

Total Score: 523

john4p · 21 July 2008, 14:27

The Elan really makes this game much easier.

Medium: 200

Total Score: 589

21 July 2008, 21:56

Medium: 182

Good ol' Elan.

Total score: 140 + 182 = 322

Graham Humphrey · 23 July 2008, 13:08

Medium: 180

Getting there - only managed to finish fourth on the third and tenth tracks though...

cane · 23 July 2008, 21:29

Easy: 132 - just warming up

23 July 2008, 21:53

Because Lemon is down (again), I thought I'd post this random, yet interesting, morsel of information. On the Lotus Trilogy version of Lotus 3, something kind of random can happen. If you play Hard twice in a row with the same car and everything (I think. I haven't tried changing car/gear/etc. yet), the first track will change on the second play when compared to the first play.
These changes are: at the top of the first hill, there is nothing there first time, but second go there are 2 beamy things,
after the second corner there is a tunnel first go, but on the second go, the tunnel disappears, leaving more magnet things there for the following left corner,
after the first right hander of the turbo bit, there is a tunnel first time round, which disappears second time round,
The changes are quite minor, and maybe hard to realise and there may be another change, but I'm not sure. Just thought I should tell everyone about it. Anyone else found this out?

cane · 23 July 2008, 23:41

Medium: 176 (total 132+176=308)

24 July 2008, 00:16

Hard: 263

Total Score: 140 + 182 + 263 = 585

Messed up the 4th and last tracks. Still, makes for an all-Lemon podium at the moment.

There is plenty of time to change that

You can't mess up in the 4th race. It's just unfair and impossible to win. Very nice going - I suggest you complete medium now and take the lead.

Don't encourage him, I'll never hear the end of it
