Yo guys the DLC's out, let's play a fun challenge.  I'll keep an updated leaderboard! Please, all skill levels welcome. Have fun!  It's a very fun challenge if you like TTing, don't have to worry about constant restarts and you can relax a bit and see this game's excessively large library of beautiful highly detailed tracks all back to back.

Go into one player vs.  Make the rules as follows:

No Teams
No Items
150cc
Hard COM¹
All Vehicles
Courses: In Order
Race Count: 32 races*


¹: If you put it on normal or easy, you will overlap the CPU's and they will get in the way.  This may happen in hard mode anyway, esp. Baby Park, but this is the best we can do.  If you're prone to screwing up very very early in the races, hard CPU's may pass you and you might have trouble keeping it up.  But for simplicity's sake, we are all going to stick with HARD COM because we're HARDCORE.


IMPORTANT: Read this part: *It doesn't allow you to select 48 races.  We have no choice but to do 32, spam A through the results, rush through the menu, change the rules to 16, and finish the next 16 races off.  As soon as you cross the finish line of the last lap of the 48th race, stop your stopwatch immediately.

When do I start my stopwatch?
As soon as you've set the rules and selected the cup, you will appear at a screen that has a huge <<OK>> button in the middle of the screen.  Press A or touch OK on your gamepad or whatever and as soon as you do this start the timer simultaneously (as close as you can).

When do I stop my stopwatch?
"As soon as you cross the finish line of the last lap of the 48th race, stop your stopwatch immediately."



You should do this all in one sitting.


Post your times in this thread.  Mention if you downloaded the game or have it on disc as this affects loading speed and thus your time.

Why not do the first 32 tracks on the "In Order" setting and then when you have to switch to 16 races in the menu, switch to "Choose" and go from there? It'll save a ton of time on menus and you won't be missing any tracks or racing on the same ones twice.

I get that you wanna stay consistent or whatever but it seems kinda pointless adding so much time onto the run with menus that can be skipped

This sounds like it could be fun, but the rules need to be ironed out first.

My suggestion: choose "in order". Start the stopwatch when pressing OK for the start of the first 32 races, then pause it when you cross the finish line of the 32nd race. Then go back in the menu, choosing "in order" again, but 16 races this time. Choose the 33rd track at track selection, and start up the stopwatch again when you press OK for the start of the 33rd race. Finally, stop the stopwatch at the finish line of the 48th race.

First post is fixed with updated rules. May the games begin.

Got my time.

Check the leaderboard in the first post to see it.

By doing this i also completed a 32 track tt as well in which my time to beat the non dlc tracks was
81min and 1.167sec

I might do this when I get a chance, but I'm kinda busy these days...
Are we supposed to pause the timer after the 32nd race like I suggested, or are we supposed to do what you originally said (just keep the timer running in between race #32 and 33)?

Well, I got up early so I could give this a shot before I head out to school Definitely fun and a real difference from time trials. Although I learned I really lack the ability to concentrate when I get up at 3:30

My score is 2:06:02.591, using the disc version.

I've noticed a some differences from TTs:

- You start in a different place at the beginning of each race.
- Coins replenish, so you don't necessarily have to go wide or take alternate routes to get all the coins.
- You can ram into the AI on antigrav to get a small boost, especially useful on Baby Park since you lap lots of players.
- You have to use the same kart combo for all the tracks.
- Excitebike Arena is randomized.
- You can activate the jump on Hyrule Circuit
- And the Animal Crossing track won't always be summer. I got autumn (thankfully not winter  )

I may try this again to improve my time, I wasn't really paying attention half the time (guess that's what happens when you play at 4am after 2 hours of sleep). Also a suggestion, this could be done in 200cc as well!

My run fell apart at the end. I felt half asleep by the time I was at the DLC tracks. I think I fell off 9 or 10 times on Wario's Gold Mine, that was by far my worst track... next time I do this I'll play at a more normal time of day.

Nice find! Keep in mind that these leaderboards include the time spent in menus between the 32nd and 33rd races. If you want to submit to both our charts and theirs, you can do this:

Use a lap stopwatch such as: http://www.timeanddate.com/stopwatch/
Time 3 "laps" as follows:
lap 1: 32 tracks
lap 2: menus
lap 3: DLC tracks

Add lap 1 + 3 for our charts, and laps 1 + 2 + 3 for theirs.

Of course our charts are kinda pointless now that we know that there are charts on speedrun.com

Anyone else wanna give it a shot?

Thanks, submitted it.

Here's video: http://www.twitch.tv/cyndaquil_/v/53758766

This was my first attempt at 48 tracks, I've done quite a few 32 track no-item runs before though.

I did that coin strat because I forgot you started with 5 coins  

Also pretty sure amiibo doesn't affect loading time at all, even if it did I probably wouldn't care because samus amiibo is cute
