Hello, you can call me Nasir. I've just started to TT in this game today. I thought it would be a good idea to make a thread.

Right now I am trying to grind GP to unlock Toad/Toadette and the Barrel Train, which has proven to be a nightmare.

When I take breaks from the GP I find myself just doing TTs and grinding out some kinda good first day times.

My MT speed is above average. I am starting to do more MTs on straightaways to improve my times on tracks like Baby Park, and just to improve times in general. It's working out well.

I've done TTs on MK8 and MK7 before, so I have MK knowledge.

I suppose this is like a progress thread. I'll start making videos as soon as I get a capture card and stream some.

Any general tips?

EDIT: Oh, and are there any recent Mario Circuit TT videos?

EDIT: Just got Toad's Kart, and I can feel the speed. Made a big improvement on my Yoshi Circuit runs. HOLY MOLY! Got an Advanced D time on DKM.

Welcooome !

MKDD is a great MK for time trial, there is almost no cheats and shortcuts possible, so it's 100% talent !
For learning new techniques, you can have a look at the mkdd encyclopedia, the strats are really useful. http://home.online.nl/tbeuman/mkdd/

In addition this link http://wrvids.com/Mario%20Kart/MKDD/Personal%20Folders/Scott%20Abbey/Exp%20A%... help me a lot, it's a collection of expert A videos, and I able you to see the bests trajectories (and not too hard) for each circuit.

In a lots of circuits, a good trajectory is better than MT. You can run against you're ghost or not. In my case I warm up without ghost, and I perform PRs (personals record) with it.

Last think before let you TT, MKDD has a unique physic I think, when you start MT everywhere sometimes you can be throw away ! But you will be used to it quickly Wink

Good job !
