Parking.


280. Just requires knowledge of the simple laws of physics, like the fact that my SUV is bigger than those other cars.

The young may be faster, but us older folks can afford more insurance.

I kept timing out! Apparently if you're slow and cautious, you just run out of time. I keep mixing up which way is forward...it gets really confusing when the up arrow is making the car go down on the screen. I've never tried to drive a car without brakes before! How do you stop it?

ok, I am convinced 502 is impossible.

I second that...at least in GUY mode (not sure what happens in the GAL mode). Clearly, the highest score per level is 100 (perfect parking)+60(completed in no time) = 160. So the highest total is 480.

Being more realistic and taking away 10 seconds per parking, gives a total of 450. Anyone making 450 is a super-god at parking cars and really ought be a valet...or die !

My highest : 419

I've played both girl and guy mode - there really is no difference.

So far my high score is 391. Gotta keep working on my driving skills.

Now my high score is 413. I rank between men and women.

EDIT: WOOHOOO! I just scored 435 points!!!
