Can you post a video of how you do the tracks ? Or at least explaining the strats you are using ? It could help us to point the flaw in your runs.
By the way your times are really good Smiley

I think my problems are in the last tracks. The first two are good enough (I'm almost sure about this, even got a ghost at BC), but I think my CI2 can still be improved. Last time was pretty good, but because I got two Mushrooms.
Even with emulator / save states I can't complete that one. At the last part, is it better or not to use the jumps? I used a Mushroom to jump, which gave me two fast rounds.

Not sure if it matters, but I don't use any items going for three stars.

That would explain why your times are faster but there are mysterious factors that go into your rating.

Just keep at it and you will get lucky eventually.

Sorry for bumping, but I am interested in how many people already did it. 30/30 3* ranks, anyone?

I started today to collect some 3 Star ranks, atm I have:

4/5 Super Circuit Cups 50cc
3/5 Retro Cups 50cc

3/5 Super Circuit Cups 100cc
0/5 Retro Cups 100cc (not played)

5/5 Super Circuit Cups 150cc
0/5 Retro Cups 150cc (not played)

That means I have half of the 3 Star ranks. I noticed that the 50cc Extra Lightning Cup was pretty hard to get... does CI2 mud part count as offroad in the game or does it affect the Star ranking?

I did it!

30/30 ***

Here's a little strategy on the hardest retro cup on 150cc: Star Cup!
RVL1: do NOT hit the ice blocks
RBC3, RMC4, RDP3: do not use any items, even if the CPU stole your item. try and get like 25coins

GOAL: try and get 100 coins in total

The Extra Lightning cup is the hardest to get 3 stars in.  That's what this whole topic is about.  How long did it take you?

I read through this whole topic and haven't figured out if driving through the water on KB1 the whole course counts as driving outside the track.  Can anyone get 3 stars on Extra Lightning while taking the water path across the small island item on all 5 laps?  I always drove that path when I played, did over 100 cups, and never got 3 stars.
