Nice cut!
Main easy fix that I think would save you time is learning to snowslide! I know it's a weird mechanic and a bit counterintuitive, but on this track it shouldn't be tooo hard to implement.

On your very first turn on lap 1, you do all the correct things right up til hopping over the snow patch. But then you keep holding the gas down, which means you lose speed. All that needs changing here is literally letting go of the A button for a fraction of a second as you land on the snow.

The second thing is getting a slide off your shroom. So using lap 3 as an example, what do you here is a decent enough set-up: you shroomed at the right time, you hopped left so that you're over the snow. But then while you let go of A and R, you're holding left throughout. Which means that you kart never goes into the sliding animation. All you need to do is to let go of left for a frame, then press it again.

If you manage to get the slide working but you're struggling with a bad angle into the next lap, then do this: You've fired the shroom, then a fraction of a second before you press R to hop over the gap, hold left, which will give your kart a better angle (which results in a more powerful snowslide too).

I'll have a go with it and try to get this down further. Just to check, by 'very first turn', do you mean the first instance that I turn and jump?

More of an FYI, I got my 7th gbasp and it turned out to be an AGS-101! Smiley

If you have trouble with the invisible bridges like BL and BP, the sheer luminosity with this version makes them clearly visible when not glowing blue. Sort of appear like a crisp muddy red color against black background. I still think that shit is way too bright but being able to see the road versus muscle memory is a big help for those starting out or trying faster strats!

It's also pearl pink, prettiest one imo!

Retro Donut Plains 1:
58"66 #15 (ME) -> 57"60 #7 (GD)
Originally got 57"76 in early October as seen in the vid thread, but I forgot to post about it here and to submit it to the site. Because of that I decided to play the track a bit more at the end of the month and got 57"63. I tried improving it some more but only got 57"60. Run is still meh but it'll do for now. Best splits are 11"98/"53/10"99/"99/11"28 = 56"77. Win on Lachlan, Banjo, Cole, Stacy, Etch, and Ben, Top 10 #65, God #41.

Retro Choco Island 1:
40"36 #10 (MD) -> 38"38 #3 (GD)
4"92 #13 (MB) -> 4"78 #7 (GD)
Splits: 9"05/6"96/"87/"92/8"58.
Couldn't resist playing this track after last month's events. Hadn't played the 5lap with ZZMT, glad to have gotten a solid run in fairly quickly. Flap came as a surprise, I started playing it halfheartedly at first but something must have clicked and I probably hit more sub-5s in a single session than anything prior to that. Best splits are 8"83/6"89/"77/"77/8"58 = 37"84. 5lap is a win on Stacy, Cole, Rusty, Seb, and Nosey, Top 3 #7, God #42. Flap is a win on Fabien, Dan, Etch, Stacy, Paul, and Mick, Top 10 #67, God #43.

.2625 AF cut (.1625 for November from rCI1), should be within 2 AF of Seb.

action with a ruined cart....

YD 1'02"33 (#7) => 1'01"85 => 1'00"95 (#5)
none of them are good tbh, first lap was trash in the 1'00"85, and the 1'01.... just ew.
I'm still too lazy to learn the double bumper strat, I think I prefer it this way Wink

YD flap: 17"38 (#5) => "28 => "19 => "18 => "17 => "16 => 17"12 (#4)
I love this flap too much, especially with my shroomstrat everyone says sucks and refusing to use the double bumper. Beating Seb with worse strats.... too much fun! Smiley

BC3: 1'21"65 (#17) => 1'21"06 (#12)
hey look i tried, laps 1-3 sucked though

BL: 1'14"31 (#20.... Update the site already, Fungo) => 1'13"63 (#13) => 1'13"48 (#12)
[Rusty 11/02/17] "if I could do 3 good laps here I'd have a nice time"

all my prs over the past 2 weeks should cut 81 spots, or 1.0125. hey now, that's close to ~~Ecchi~~ Etchy. Gotta keep pushing!

EDIT: BC3 flap: 25"32 (#14) => 25"21 (#10)
#8 is done, sorry etch

PC: 45"73 (#16) => 45"60 => 45"55 => 45"33 (#13)
etch tie, making Florida great again

PC flap: 13"29 => 13"20 => 13"15 => 13"06 (#8)

EDIT:

nice flap!
I'm bad at rDP3 flap so dont trust what I say too much

try getting an mt into the flap so that you can be at high speed for a longer time and cut more.
also, try hopping into the grass you dont lose so much speed there.
kinda forgot how to do this flap nonzy as well lol
good flap though, Titans are always nice Smiley

YD SC: 46"36 (US record, #3 on PP, #10 on etch charts) => 46"16 => 44"50 (#9 on the etch charts)
Lap 3 was not good.... several mistakes. 43 when?

my thumb hurts now

EDIT:
