Burnout Revenge: Any%

Burnout Revenge: Any%
=====================
Link to Timing Tests for this route: https://pastebin.com/TwEyy41D
=====================
In Any%, the goal is to complete Grand Prix 10.
All other Grand Prixs DO NOT matter. So this route
gets to Rank 10 as fast as possible and then unlocks
GP 10 to complete the run.

Crash Events are the fastest events.
Burning Laps/Previews are the second fastest events.
Road Rages are the third fastest events.
Races/Eliminators are the fourth fastest events.
Traffic Attacks are the slowest events.

You need 400 Stars to unlock Rank 10, that is 80 Events
assuming 5 Stars on each event. This is not feasible unless
you're Jesus himself, so you'll probably have to do a few extra
events to make up the Stars. I needed 85 in my test run through.

This route is very free-form. I'm going to list all of the
events that Ive done on an average run through of Any%.
What events you do depends on how good you are at the game.
You may find yourself needing to do less events than me if
you get 5 Stars on almost every event, or you may need to do more
if you find yourself getting a lot of 4 Stars.

If you need to do more events than what I have listed, refer
to the Backup Event list at the bottom.
=====================
EVENT TYPES
=====================
Here are some notes about the event types in the game:
	- Crash Events are fast and are not that hard. With practice,
	  a 4 Star rating is guaranteed and a 5 Star is kinda easy.
	  Only a few Crash events are very hard to get 5 Stars on.

	- Burning Laps and Previews are fast and easy. Very few take longer
	  than 2m to complete. Practice these and you should get 5 Stars
	  almost every time.

	- Road Rages are very fast early on. Once you start to need around
	  20 Takedowns for Gold, they start to take longer and become more
	  comparable to Races/Eliminators. They are also much more RNG heavy
	  at that point and can eat up a lot of time if you miss Gold. Try to
	  avoid these longer Road Rages unless you're very confident in them.

	- Races and Eliminators are about equal. Eliminators are a consistent
	  2m30s for Silver or Gold (depending on what position you're in) and
	  2m00s for Bronze. Single lap Races (such as those early on in the game)
	  are faster than Eliminators, but once you get to longer Races, the
	  Eliminators are a bit faster since most Eliminators cover a single
	  lap around a course and maybe half of another lap at worst.

	- Traffic Attacks should be avoided unless absolutely necessary. Really
	  after Rank 1 you should never do a Traffic Attack (I do one in Rank 4 to
	  unlock a Road Rage though). They can take a long time to reach Gold, and
	  sometimes getting an Awesome rating is hard. They often take the longest
	  to finish. However, they are useful if you need a quick 1-3 Stars. Getting
	  a Great and a Silver/Bronze is fast and efficient to make up a few quick Stars.
=====================
TIPS AND TRICKS
=====================
Here are a few tips and tricks to go fast:
	- Always Rank up on a Crash Event.
	  Crash Events allow you to retry them regardless of your medal obtained
	  (all other events don't offer a retry if you get a medal). If you immediately
	  retry the Crash event then quit out, you get all of the earned Stars but you skip
	  the entire screen and animation of the Stars getting added to your Revenge Rank.
	  This saves around 10-12s per Crash event and saves more than that when you Rank up
	  because you skip the "Rank Up" animation as well.

	- During Crash events, if you enter "Impact time" as your Crashbreaker bar fills,
	  you can trigger the crashbreaker extremely fast as the slowed time of Impact Time
	  slows the rate at which your Crashbreaker bar empties. So, a Force 10 crashbreaker
	  can be set off with 2-3 button taps instead of a few seconds of mashing.

	- Don't just hold Impact Time the entire Crash event. Doing this slows down all of the
	  cars and stalls the event. Practice and do it only when your bar is about to reach 100%.

	- Practice using the Rank 5, 185 MPH car for all events. Once this car is unlocked, it's
	  the only car you use for the entire run until you get one in Rank 9/10. This car handles
	  well and holds it's own in every event, but it will be slower than the AI by later Ranks
	  so a little practice is worth it.

	- Practice Burning Laps until you know the courses and ideal shortcuts to get 5 Stars.
	  These events are free 5 Stars if you practice them. They are unforgiving, but not hard
	  once you learn the ins and outs of the courses. Just don't crash.

	- Once you get the necessary medal in Road Rage, crash your car into everything.
	  If you crash enough in Road Rage you "Total" your car and the event ends regardless
	  of the time left. This can help you end the Event almost instantly instead of waiting
	  for 100+ seconds to tick off the clock. The clock also runs while you crash so if you
	  don't crash enough, you'll still time out.

	- Practice Crash Events A LOT.
	  I can't stress this one enough; Crash Events, especially later ones, get a bad rep for
	  being hard to Gold on. This is not entirely accurate as only a few (Drain Damage, Forest Bump,
	  Mountain the Kerb, and a few more) are really hard to Gold. The rest require you to know what
	  car is best and where to start the crash. The traffic patterns in Crash events are ALWAYS the same
	  when you start the event. If you retry the event, the patterns can vary. So, learn the pattern from
	  a 1st try of the event, and learn to capitalize on that pattern. Golds can be obtained very
	  consistently with a little practice and knowledge.

	- Get Bronze in every non-Race/Burning Lap event in Rank 10.
	  You only need a medal to unlock the next event, so shoot for the fastest medal.
	  Unless it's a Race or Burning Lap (where Gold is fastest), shoot for the bare minimum; the
	  Stars you get here don't mean anything.

require a Traffic Attack and/or a Race to unlock more events

should beat them out in time spent getting 5 Stars**

NOTABLE BACKUPS
=====================
If you find yourself short on Stars even with the few
extra events I do in the Route, here are some notable
backup events:
	- Rank 5 - White Mountain - Traffic Attack
	- Rank 5 - White Mountain - Road Rage
	- Rank 4 - Lone Peak - Race
	- Rank 4 - Angel Valley - Race
	- Rank 6 - Eastern Bay - Race
	- Rank 7 - Angel Valley - Race (Has faster car, consider doing in route if you want it)
	- Rank 8 - Eternal City - Race
    - Rank 9 - Eastern Bay - Road Rage
These are listed in preferred order. Meaning, don't do the Rank 8
Race unless you have no choice. Start with the Rank 5 Traffic Attack,
then work your way through this backup list until you have all
the necessary Stars you were short on.

There are also additional Traffic Attacks in Ranks 3, 6, 7, 8 and 9.
These can be useful if you're only missing a couple Stars and need
to make them up fast. A Bronze+Great in a Traffic Attack can be
reasonably fast and safe for this.

If you're still short on Stars even after going through this whole
backup list, then you probably need more practice before doing Any% runs
because that means you had a lot of 3 or 4 Star events when you should have
been getting 5 Stars on them.
