Hardest PRs to kill
05/18/11 at 07:25:38
 
According to my calculations, the hardest WRs to get are as follows:
Rainbow Road 3lap/flap
Cheep-Cheep Island 3lap/flap
Yoshi Desert 3lap/flap (unless if they allow the shroom strat)
Shy Guy Beach flap

CRs
Sky Garden flap
Broken Pier 3lap/flap (unless the blue strat is allowed again)


* CCI 3lap & RR 3lap are the only PRs I got that are below Titan standard (both Hero): http://www.mariokart64.com/mksc/standards.php?pid=206
* BP 3lap, RMC2 flap & RVL2 flap are the only 3 PRs I got are ranked #10 (few are 9th)...It takes time for me to improve a little...and if I'm lucky, I may kill my PRs once again

I need advise on CCI because it's hard to do 3/3 nonshroom gap Embarrassed

Hey, this would be a good thread for everyone to use. What are your hardest tracks to PR on?

For me it's the Vanilla Lakes and Retro Rainbow Road. I avoid those when I can; for me they're the most frustrating, so I quit early and never make much progress on them. Tongue

For CCI Terrence, make sure you do the double hop. (Where you hop twice in a row quickly, you tend to go much farther. I assume you know this though because it's rather necessary on RKB1.)

I've always found the success of this rather random, but I'm usually more successful if I go in with a smaller angle on the kart and counter-steer back to a straight position while hopping on the water, after the double hop of course. I think you also go farther if you hit the gas when you're in the air after the first water skip, but it all happens so fast and randomly I can't be sure.

Good luck. Smiley

This is my hardest PR to kill. But i think it will change a lot. For example SGB flap was one of my worst track ranked over 90 now it is my best rankad and i'm inside 50 with it.

1. SG flap       I fail in the last SC and when i succes i'm just a 0"1 too late
2. RMC1 flap   I don't know why... i just need to sub 8 is that soo hard??
3. RR  3lap                    (because it was made with Toad and i only play Bowser and DK now!

^ Seb made the RR 3lap WR with Bowser iirc.

The hardest PRs for me are the SG flap (I once played this for 30 min and succeeded in doing the last SC, but after this I never been able to do it again) and most of the BC tracks, normal and retro (especially RBC1, RBC2 and BC3)

I never liked playing PC, and my times there are ranked poorly. VL tracks also come to mind...

I played not seriously until now, so I don't really know what courses I will have problems to PR on... to be honest, I think some of the retro track flaps will make me sick, because SMK was without shrooms, and being able to use mushrooms makes the whole sense of MTing useless in a flap imo (well, at least at the courses like CI or KB Roll Eyes). I know my opinion is maybe not really of any use because I played the most courses maybe 5 or 6 times at all... but I will play next month a bit more seriously so that I can give a better opinion about the good and the bad courses Grin

All my times are beatable as I can see that people make some vids, using the same strat as I do on a track but he beats my time by 1 second or more... So that's why I know I can beat it, but I don't know why I most of the time can't manage it... Undecided
So I'm sick of TTing...

thanks Andy

I'm going to stay away from RR unless if I go to Quick Run and torture the drivers Roll Eyes

and I would like to see someone do a live (hands) vid on CCI so I can understand the strat...and then kill my PR! Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley

CCI is pretty much a waterslide then another waterslide over the deep water, and just praying that you make it.

Just noticed that this is a pretty interesting thread.

My hardest PR for me to improve is my RR 3lap (34"91).
