I had two very nice PR's today that I consider barriers that I will remember. I knocked my DK mountain lap and total times down a bit. I got my lap below 36 to 35"775 and my total down to 1'50"121. Both were fairly sloppy and can be brought down. I'd say I can reasonably take the total time down to 1'49'200 and the lap to 35'500. Oh I am still using the parade kart even though I've been told countless times that its worse. I haven't tried the toad kart yet so I really don't know.

I posted this once but and it says im the last to post here but the post isn't showing up so ill try again.

I managed to break 36 for Dk mountain lap and 1'51''00 for the total time. I actually got 35"755 and 1'50"121. I'm sure that I can take off another .3 on the lap and can reasonably take the total time down to 1'49'200. I'm still using the parade kart however, and I have been told many times that I should be using toads kart because its by far the best. I have yet to try toads kart here but it seems like from what ive been hearing that i should be able to take of a bit more time even if i use that kart.

Then I was more than a FULL second ahead after 2 laps but got really nervous around the ice skaters and missed a couple MTs and finished with 1:20.3. I'll remember getting 1:19...

My most memorable barrier is the one which finally bounced me back to MK64. That happened when I couldn't get under 1'12 on Peach Beach. I had gotten down to 1'12"087, which at the time was close to the top 10, I think. And I tried and tried and tried, and my left hand fingers hurt insanely - and finally I had to give it up.
So don't tell me there aren't barriers Wink

PS Dammit, I didn't realize this thread was so old. I just went back through it and found that this is a story I've already told. But that was in March, so ...
and Scott never passed me, so I needn't go back to PB

I quite agree, Matt. Some old threads actually deserve being brought up again, too. And if you've been around a while, you realize that what new threads bring up, seldom is a novelty
