I am not sure, which one is actually the fastest, but going down and using the left path is definitely tons easier.

^ + you can actually gain time by going on the left,early mt releases and leaving the pad neutral a little bit > right path

I'm honestly not sure how to do the left path, I always hit the wall. I've done right since the start and that seems to work well for me as I actually find that path easier... it was very hard to first get used to though.

Pretty much this. I had been doing the dYC hop strat where you hop the offroad to the right of the piranha plant since a few hours after release, cause I couldn't do the SMT strat. But I doubt anyone looked at my ghost to figure out that offroad hop, since I never got into top 10 times.

The are two ways to benefit from using shrooms back to back. One would be at the cogs. So if I was to skip using the shroom at the end of lap 2, that would put the pendulums out of the way on lap 3 (so I could do the mt after the boost pads). However, skipping one of the ending shrooms would probably cost more time than 2 shrooms back to back would gain.

Now using 2 shrooms at the end of lap 1/2 (most likely lap 2) I'm not so sure atm because what's important is getting the following smt. If I can't get it then I can't fully benefit the use of the two shrooms compared to using them separately.

Time to test...

dHC: Not sure. Just need improvisation.
rPPS: Skip the pipe where you normally get the 9th coin.
rMC: Sliding towards the first ramp
rSL: Going inside the freezie last turn; aim to get a smt first turn on laps 2/3; maybe try faster character/vehicle.
SGF: Continue to use BF; maybe trick off the last ramp and hope to still get an smt
BC: Get a mt off the ramp entering the Bowser statue; use BF
MKS: Mastering 4 coins glider; use BF; try to get smt first turn in anti-gravity section
DS: Do more than 1 slide entering anti-gravity; instead of the current shroom strat, mt to skip the dirt (or while entering water), then use shroom at the straight-away.
dEA: Mt off the the ramp before shroom on laps 2/3; change the shroom to the last turn; use two shrooms off to the side at the beginning of laps 2 or 3 and try to skip the ramps; why not gold standard?
dIIO: Smt first turn; use shroom after second turn all three laps; try the ramps at the end (especially lap 3); at anti-gravity, get on the yellow path first, then switch to the green path.
dMC: At the cylinder-like section, do two right drifts.
rRR: Grab two coins after the second shroom.

Use the shrooms after the first ramp on rGV

I could keep going, but these are all merely suggestions on tracks that I have 0 experience on. All of them may work. None of them may work. Idk.

Edit: I just thought on rMC, try hopping over where you normally shroom and use the shroom somewhere else.

Ahhh you had the same idea as me! The first time I TT'd that track I noticed it might be possible, so I spent an hour trying to get the angle right, only to find out it doesn't work.

It's far too easy to forget what it's like to be a kid. But one secret to happiness is to be able to pick out links to our childhood in the mundanities of adult life. That's why I love Mario Kart. Whether I'm imagining wading through frosting in Sweet Sweet Canyon to take a bite of that giant donut, or picturing myself, shrunken down, making my way through Waluigi's pinball machine, there's something rejuvenating about the game that provides a nice reminiscence of the halcyon days gone by.
