I've had the game for 3 months, not serious about till the last montH,
WHICH WAS ABOUT WHEN I FIRST FOUND THE SITE. As u can see there are
only 8 courses ive played seriously bec i like them, the rest bore me,
and most of thE other times r just first runs, as u can guess by the
poor consistency. i might have some new times sooner or later. Hope to
post something soon! tata

the shortcut is pissing me off; only managed to complete 3 races so far!

first try.

bc: 2:38:768/50:664 -> 2nd completed run for this course

3 lap should go down by 10 secs in no time!

ddj: 1:57:853/36:015

comparing the flap with the 3 lap, u can see im very inconsistent

bc: 2:35:033/50:281

i hate this course!

dc: 1:48:200/35:522

2nd try

rr: 1:02:779

got rid of all the embarrassing int rankings, now its time to get rid
of all the adv'd ones

yc: 1:47:682/34:594 -> an hr job

and my best splits equal 1:46:2xx

ddd: 1:38:712/30:567

i figured out how to move quicker through the little shortcut :)

small improvement

MuC: 1:41:159/33:195

my best no mushroom lap is 33:2xx, so i know i can bring this one down
under 1:40, but that's pretty much it :(

2 more pr's

DC: 1:43:891/33:763

spent an hr on it, took off quite abit
best splits are sub 1:43!

didnt play for 3 days, tried ddj for an hr only managed 2 "clean" races

ddj: 1:52:908

best splits: 37:5xx/36:6xx/36:6xx = 1:50:7xxx

pb: 1:11:672 -> i used 0-2-0, instead of 0-1-1, not sure which one is
really better
ddd: 1:37:551
ws: 34:662

played 20 minutes today, got my 3 lap on hte very first try, and spent
the other 15 mintues improving the flap

ws: 1:47:396/33:659 -> best splits equal below 1:45, and i know i can
improve flap sub 33

dkm: 1:54:448/36:979
bc: 2:29:013/48:917
rr: 3:07:477/1:01:902

FINALLY!

SL: 25:142

MuC : 1:40:191/33:930 -> best splits equal 1:39:6xx, i want the ea in
this course for flap and 3 lap and sub 1:40!

MuC: 32:930 NOT 33:930

sorry about that

MaC: 29:233 -> i was shocked it was so low, previous to this one i had
a very smooth run with a 29:5xx, and for this run, i missed a MT and i
hit the grass ie. i guess a sub 29 is possible, this is my best chance
to finally get a hero time!

DDD: 30:061

MuC: 32:930

DDD: 1:36:626

bc: 48:490 ->lap one with no mushrooms!!! i hate this course with a
passion, i play 3 hrs straight and i couldnt get one smooth run!!!!
best splits equal 1:26:5xx!

played for 20 mintues, and have these small improvements to show for it

BP: 1:07:272/8:971-> happy with the sub 9, next goal sub 8:9xx and sub
1:07, shouldnt take too long for that though, jsut need to be
consistent in every lap, my laps varied from 9:520-9:8xx in the 7lap
record

bp: 1:06:922 1 down, 1 to go

best splits only equal 1:06:4xx :(

i meant

bp: 8:971

DDJ: 1:50:235/35:896 -> goal is sub 1:50 for now, i hate this course
so ill put it away for now

WS: 1:46:244 ->took off more than a sec on my 3rd run, want sub 1:45
here, but it seems much too hard to reach, at least for now

LC: 1:18:808/25:543 -> finally surpassed the dreaded sub 1:19, best
splits only equal 1:18:4xxx, so ill try to go for EA here maybe
tomorrow, but sub 1:18 seems impossible for now

WC: 2:06:955/1:02:817

MaC: 1:31:831 -> ANOTHER EA!
best splits now equal 1:31 flat! -> 31:2/29:9/29:9

BP: 1:06:897/8:917

WS: 1:44:516/33:240
BC: 2:27:689/48:221
RR: 3:05:338/1:01:013

I HATE ALL 3 OF THESE COURSE! its took me so damn long to get some
consistent runs, in rr and bc especially! now ill move onto other
course that are out of the top 100 range

DC: 1:43:056 -> aiming for ea tomorrow here

both ea!

DC: 1:42:665/33:477

MB: 1:22:948/27:139 -> took only 10 minutes to get this, then the next
30 minutes proved useless, so i stopped, might give it a go tomorrow;
i have very little time to play, so my posts are scarce

YC: 1:46:590/34:242 -> best splits equal around 1:45:5xx

i tried the shortcut, had some success, but not able to make it with a
complete run, if i do make it, i guess that would bring my best splits
near low 1:45's

PB: 1:11:290/22:833 -> VERY FRUSTRATING! almost got to my first hero
times, i wasted an extra 2 hrs for nothing , best splits equal 1:10:75x

SL: 1:17:868/25:062-> would've had sub 25 flap if i didnt take the
very last corner wide :(

BC: 2:26:149/47:819 -> BOTH VERY CLOSE TO EA

potential on this course for now seems to be 2:24:8xx/47:4xx

i have a 47:905 no mushroomer

-> for some damn reason i cant get any hero times, half of my coursse
are ea's! grr, so frustrating! well anyways, i guess that will be my
next major goal, at least one HD!

BP: 8:868 -> .009 off a hero time, this is frustrating! nevertheless
im really happy with this one and surprised, i got a 8:912, and the
very next try i came up with this, one thing i changed was using the
mushroom closer to the turn, hopefully i can improve on this :)

LC: 1:18:693-> SMALL IMPROVEMENT, BUT MY SPLITS GOT BETTER, THEY EQUAL
NOW 1:18:1XX, INSTEAD OF 1:18:5XX, WILL TRY FOR EA HERE TOMORROW

WC: 2:06:343/1:02:618 -> I tried the "r-thing", best splits equal
2:05:6xx, with much room for improvement, sub 2:05 is possible for me
here, hopefully ;)

BP: 1:06:773 -> small improvement, yet brings me down 15 positions!

played for 3 hrs today, and this is what i have to show for it; i
tried to improve my weaker and more hated course...

WS: 1:43:553/33:002
DKM: 1:52:475/36:659 -> i improved my approach towards the sc, as i
can manage to keep my speed up much better
RR: 1:00:799 -> i hate this course, its way too long, i cant manage a
clean run anymore, so i tried for flap instead :(

ps: i am from toronto, ontario

have very little motivation to keep playing, jsut decided to improve
my worst time:

DDJ: 35:363

MuC: 1:39:512/32:643

BC: 2:25:334 -> I HATE THIS COURSE, ITS SO UNPREDICTABLE, SO MANY
TIMES I IMPROVE MY SPLITS DURING THE RACE, BUT ALWAYS MANAGE TO GET
HIT BY SOMETHING NEW! ITS SO FRUSTRATING!!

DDD: 1:35:902/30:018 -> another ea!!! :( the flap looks HD bound though :)

spend 3 hrs over the weekend to achieve these respectable times:

WS: 32:797
DKM: 1:50:890/36:224
DDJ: 1:48:998/35:136
RR: 3:04:198/1:00:603

IM SLOWLY LOSING INTEREST IN PLAYING, I GUESS THE DETERMINATION IN
ACHIEVING THAT FIRST HERO TIME IS KEEPING ME GOING

i played this entire week, and finally i have a few hero times, 2 of
which are HB's! i wasnt able to send my times in, as i was having a
problem with my internet connection, anyhow, ive finally reached my
goal, but now this has motivated me to play even more; this is all
thanks to improving my mt'ing; so here we go...
