Heh, LOL .. it was quite some fun beat Hovis in Clydesdale 
...video will be uploaded soon 
Cool if you did it in CF its a triumph m8 cause its definitely not easy...
keep your eye on the next gate is key
but the Bullpup MK III is not possible, it will not take the corners, it just keeps drifting around the ring.
i tried so meny times, but it was always the same
i got a lot better, but the last bit was just impossible.
Thing is, that player should not have bullpup ship at that storyline time. I always recommended to anyone, to do not go into areas which will be revealed later in campaign. Bullpup mk III can (and will) have more problems with story progress.
Adv Hydroxin do exist in MP
However Sup.Hydroxin is only available to Clan members on MP
About strafing and Engine Kill, have a look at https://swat-portal.com/forum/…i/crossfire/combatguides/
hth
I think what I'd do next is see if I can make it to Hokkaido and back with a pair of advanced Hydroxin thrusters (if they exist in the SP game) and try it again.
These thrusters will do "0" difference, bcs in cruise they behave similar. I did this video above with heavy thrusters only. Main trick for this race is "pause" cruise (using reverse speed key) like I mentioned in another thread in circa 3/4 of race when there are two gates in very short distance and bad angle ... in video (around 1:50 time) I paused them too late to do it "good", but it was enough for win.
just keep your eye on the next gate.
when your coming up to the gate, have the next one lined up.
go wide, and sweep or cut in.
start taking the ring before you get to it.
meaning start turning before you get to it.
be smooth when turning, or you could hit one
not to fast or to slow
if you do this. it's not likely you'l hit a ring. 
Nice Job M8 just watched the Video
Well there was this one time, where I picked up a Sabre in Custodian before I did the hunt for Ashcroft. The Sabre is a well enough ship to race in, Really good, I don't think I've ever lost a race to Hovis in that ship.
Maybe if you'd like, you could go back and pick the sabre instead. The appropriate time would be before the Ashcroft mission.
Rofl about loud swearing ... that reminded me some moments quite well ... I suggest give MP priority a bit and get used to flying with chosen ship. At some moment you will improve significantly without even noticing it, and you will with surprise see that beat Hovis was easy.
The Sabre was my ship of choice for a long time m8. But if you want a non expensive choice to take you around at the beginning even all the way if you want Planet Blood quickest and closest rep allowing if not there are other locations next in mind if rep allows is Nephele Bundshu Base at the end of the trade lane upon entering the sector from X and get yourself the Black Eagle it's a new config on the old Eagle it won't drop its shield if you need to eject insignificant cargo to pick up pods and it won't lose its wings in a fight and its agile.
Good luck and good flying you are going to have tons of choices as far as ships and you can fly them all.
