* (°)- Believed To Be (System) World Records

**- World Record Tie

Times In Orange-New Times Of POW WEEK

Times In LightBlue- Old Times On Last POW Week

Last time(s) updated:
Finally, Matts profile has the right times in it, and this profile looks correctly. A guy with a KTB TIME LIKE THIS SHOULD HAVE A PROPER PROFILE, ya know!

Messages:

9/27/00- Dang, you finally beat me at CM 3lap. I find that course so fustrating these days. Man, I was so dominant here back in the day. Noone would believe I was the first to go sub 1'40 here with my imfamous 1'39"99!

9/14/00- Kevin Booth updated your profile!

5/07/00 Finally pulled ahead of Neil Marsden in the rankings. I got my first WR since the last update, and am getting closer and closer to Legend C!!

4/27/00 After nearly 50 days of not playing, I have finally started again and things are looking good. Look for Matt to make a big move into the upper Non-SC echelon this summer!!!

3/9/00 Everything updated...and it may be awhile before another...but I will try to keep matchups somewhat up to date.

3/1/00 Just an update cause it's my birthday and I wanted all to know that I'm 19 as of today.

2/27/00 Just updating times and matchups from the past two weeks. I don't have too much time to play now, so it's mostly just gonna be matchup updates as people keep beatin me :(. Oh well, I guess that's what I get for not playing.

2/14/00 Koopa God time and Legend D.

2/10/00 Shortcuts.

2/8/00 Not much...just wanted to update and change Non-SC to 3-lap. (makes me look better) :).

1/25/00 Finally got around to updating again. Nothing new that's great...except for my SL 3-lap..which Kev has managed to ruthlessly steal once again. Anyway...I should be around more often for updates now. Later all.

1/5/00 Well I honestly never thought I would make it...but with some coaching from Mike Simmons and a shock on BB, I finally made Legend. Mike's help with F-lap helped me go from 33'28 to 33'11 to 33'03 to 32'99 to 32'95. Thanks again to Mike!

1/5/00 After updating everyone else...I decided to treat myself to a new color schematic. We'll see how it works. Anyways...nothing too major...biggest improvement was SL lap, which went from 32"61 to 32"46. More today hopefully. Later.

12/27/99 Four or five new PR's...including sub-1'15'00 on both MMF and MR. I've been working on those for awhile.

12/22/99 About ten new PR's...ranging from very good to meaningless....but improvements none the less. I am closing the gap on legend and also on Neil Marsden....although I am truly scared of the times he probably will have posted once he is off MK64 probation. :) Anyway...look for one more update in this millenium. And for all of you who were wondering....finals were easy...except for Calculus...grrr.

12/13/99 Matchups, LKR, and all times current. Seems the flow of new times may be stopping for quite awhile....at least until finals are over. :)

12/12/99 Finally got King A.

12/10/99 Yet another small update trying to get into the habit of frequent updates. The only big time to report today is a Legend D time on SL, 1'39"42. Matt also hit his first king SC today, a 1'15"61 on RRo F-lap. However, since he is a "Non-SC" karter, Matt's LKR will remain unaffected.

12/08/99 Another small update just in order to stay up to date. Up to 8 legend times and honing in on LKR=6, but still a lot of work to be done. No significant improvements really :). I also changes my vs. category by adding some legends whom I can compete with and removing kings who are inactive at the moment.

12/05/99 Finally I think I'll be able to upload my updates that have been continuing offline. My only big improvements are sub-1'40 on LR and Legend D (2'26"16!!) on RRa. Things may be halted by finals...but look for Matt to catch fire again before the millenium ends.

12/03/99 Everything is finally updated, including LKR and vs. stats. Matt has been pumping out new times this week, now having 4 legend F times!! He barely beats Iacopo Sorce in matchups, but still gets rocked by the kart veteran in just about every other stat. Look for this battle to continue!

11/30/99 It has been quite a week for Matt, over 10 PR's, and a .5 drop in LKR. Matt has now dropped below 7.0 in LKR and is King B. He also has some time to play over the holidays. Look for him to to close the gap on fellow kings Marsden and Sorce.

11/17/99- Really nothing special about today's update. Quite a big chop off of VY 3-lap, and a decent run on LR, including a 34"00...one of my lowest laps ever. I really just wanted to add the new features of LKR and vs. to my Player Page. Later All.

11/15/99- From now on Matt himself will be doing these frickin' updates himself. But the truth is that Matt has no idea how to use HTML. Everybody wish him luck!!!

10/26/99- Great Job on your comeback Matt, and your right, that SL lap was damn good... Just think not many other than Horwitz and I knew how to do this course that fast til recent times...

10/1/99- FS was finally added... Good luck with College in VT!

7/19/99- Well, I forgot the FS time, but at least I got most of them and upgrade complete!

6/8/99- Updated your times Matt.  We will recalculate them, and then make the adjustments if necssary.  Great improvment.

4/29/99- Finally got you updated! Anyhow, great job with your Karting as of late, you will make a great King Level Karter Soon!

3/22/99- Congrats on Beating Towles... Yes, Coach Gallo will be disappointed that you are taking a break, but make sure to come back on the first of April! Trust me, you don't want to quit playing for too long, it takes too much to get the talent back, and then you will not want to play anymore, and that would be a shame! Anyhow I have a feeling you will miss it, and be excited to play again when the time comes.

3/12/99- I wonder when you broke the 34 barrier... that is a bigtime barrier to break and one all Kings To Be Must Do!

3/1/99- .83 off DK Lap! Very Nice! Congrats with Passing Sterling in matchups for the time Being....

2/28/99- Sterling Beat Your Matchups 17 to 15!

2/27/99- Well Matt.. I must say what you have done in the last weeks is as spectacular as ever. I did remember a request in your email about what I think you should go after next.... well, you have alot of nice times, but I really feel DK 3lap could be 1 second faster and the fastlap down more too! Moo Moo a hair more, Rainbow Fastlap a half second, and Bowser's Castle 3lap is due too! Basically the times not in orange are almost a month old, so look at those.... but mostly, just keep the PR's coming, cause there is still tons of room for improvement, and it's the best way to keep motivated... as far as tips... I can help as Gallo does, just ask something specific, like the shroom strat in Banshee or whatver, and I shall be able to help you!... Good Luck!!

You are now an Elite! Now the records will be tougher to come, but more important! :)
Great job, you have 6 Elite times, and you passed Tony!
Nice Matt! Keep them coming!
Nice times, almost all 32 in one day!
Welcome to the Mario Kart Time Trial Community! Set some new times Matt!!
