I improved to 1:07.480 7lap and 0:09.054 flap. Both are still Expert C, though...

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Seems I forgot to put a new Waluigi Stadium flap in there... my Excel file was wrong. The flap is actually 0:36.251.

I also got new records in Baby Park while waiting for my times to appear - 1:07.480 7lap and 0:09.054 flap. Now it's time for me to improve my weaker times...

Daniel Ernsberger here with some new records for you.

I think I forgot to include my name last time, so from before, I got 1:07.480 at Baby Park with a 0:09.054 flap.

This time, here are my new records:

Waluigi Stadium
3lap: 1:49.858
Flap: 0:35.105

Dry Dry Desert
3lap: 1:40.191
Flap: 0:31.442

Mushroom City
3lap: 1:42.672
Flap: 0:33.467

This should wipe that awful Intermediate A time and most of the Advanced C's as well.

Nice to see a decent 18.3 AF cut with that update... I got a few more records for you:

Sherbet Land
3lap: 1:20.324
Flap: 0:26.336

Baby Park
3lap: 1:07.265
Flap: 0:08.955 :)

That was a big one for me, breaking 9 seconds flap at Baby Park. It's only 0.011 away from getting to Expert A, but it was so perfect, that I need a new strat to improve from there. I mean, I just NICKED the wall on both turns!!

Daniel Ernsberger here with several records for you! Most of them were on my weaker tracks that I hadn't raced seriously in a while.

Baby Park 7lap: 1:07.250

Peach Beach 3lap: 1:12.845
Peach Beach Flap: 0:23.310

Mario Circuit 3lap: 1:35.443

Bowser's Castle 3lap: 2:31.766
Bowser's Castle Flap: 0:49.274

And the weirdest thing about the Bowser's Castle record is, I actually accepted getting hit by a fireball on the first lap!!! I decided what the heck, I'll go for flap on lap 2 in a valiant effort to catch up. I was over 3 seconds behind after lap 1, but my ghost used 2-0-0. I then drove a good second lap using both shrooms, closed the gap to under 1 second and got my flap record. From there I drove PHENOMENALLY at the end, picking up over a second on the last half of the last lap to win by several tenths and get both records to Exp. D! :) Because of this it shouldn't be too hard to get Exp. C 3lap.

I got a few more records for you:

Mushroom Bridge 3lap: 1:26.662
Mushroom Bridge Flap: 0:28.034
Waluigi Stadium 3lap: 1:48.377

One more thing: I live in Granger, Indiana, which is near South Bend.

I've been racing Waluigi Stadium, and just got my first Expert A time!!!

Daniel Ernsberger

P.S. I live in Indiana, and the site still doesn't show it.

It won't be long now before I have all Expert! I've calculated that wiping my six remaining Advanced A's will get me to Expert C overall! :)

Mushroom Bridge
3lap: 1:25.696

Mario Circuit
Flap: 0:30.538

Sherbet Land

I just wiped two of my remaining Advanced times, and got them to Expert C! :)

I got another Expert A time at Peach Beach!

Peach Beach
3lap: 1:12.082
Flap: 0:22.939!

Sherbet Land
3lap: 1:18.471
Flap: 0:25.700 (by two lousy thousandths)

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Yoshi Circuit
3lap: 1;48.350
Flap: 0:35.274 (both marginal)

DK Mountain
3lap: 1:55.696 (good enough for Expert C)

Rainbow Road
3lap: 3:06.228 (good enough for Expert B!)

Yes, I haven't been as active as before, because I'd cut back to give my thumb a rest - it was really sore.

Location: Granger, Indiana

I got my first Expert A 3lap!

Rainbow Road
3lap: 3:05.187
Flap: 1:00.819

Still no Hero times, unfortunately... but I should now be sub 17 ARR. Some of these records may be a week or two old, but they all stand right now.

Peach Beach
3lap: 1:11.943

Dry Dry Desert
3lap: 1:39.256
Flap: 0:30.788

Yoshi Circuit
Flap: 0:34.995

DK Mountain
3lap: 1:53.319
Flap: 0:36.821

Dino Dino Jungle
3lap: 1:52.150

This should get me back in the game...

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

I got these almost a week ago, but have been too lazy to submit them:

Peach Beach
3lap: 1:11.764

Dry Dry Desert
3lap: 1:38.048

Mushroom Bridge
3lap: 1:24.448
Flap: 0:27.924

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

...after a much quicker affair at Daisy Cruiser, and got my second Expert A 3lap!

Daisy Cruiser
3lap: 1:43.491
Flap: 0:33.813

Mushroom City
3lap: 1:40.064
Flap: 0:32.752

Despite getting these Expert A's, though, Hero still seems out of reach... it took SIX HOURS to get both times on Mushroom City to Expert A!! In that time I probably could have wiped all my remaining Expert D's and even most of the Expert C's!

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

OK, might as well submit this now since it should take me to Expert B overall...

Mushroom Bridge
3lap: 1:24.411
Flap: 0:27.336

This Expert B flap came SO much easier than those Expert A times at Mushroom City... I really seem to hit a brick wall at Expert A. I'll probably get all Expert A and B before I get a Hero time!

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Now only two standards separate my best from my worst times. In fact, I'm still wondering if I'll wipe all the Expert C's before I get a Hero time!! Although, Peach Beach flap looks like a possibility...

Yoshi Circuit
3lap: 1:47.562
Flap: 0:34.404

Dino Dino Jungle
3lap: 1:51.799
Flap: 0:35.715

Bowser's Castle
3lap: 2:29.308
Flap: 0:48.648

I remember when I got my first Expert on Rainbow Road, long before I even joined the site. When I first took a look at the standard chart most of my times were Advanced, and some were even Intermediate! And now... ALL tracks are BETTER than Expert D! Incidentally, Rainbow Road was also my first Expert A 3lap.

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

I thought I might get it on Peach Beach flap... I was close... I got it on Peach Beach 3lap!! And it wasn't even Expert A before!!

Peach Beach
3lap: 1:11.198!!!
Flap: 0:22.867

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

I improved two courses, both 3lap and flap, and did get another Expert A in there!

Dry Dry Desert
3lap: 1:36.767
Flap: 0:30.134!

Mario Circuit
3lap: 1:32.460
Flap: 0:29.513

If my math is correct, I should be exactly Expert B overall.

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

I'm Daniel Ernsberger and I didn't see my last records get updated... must have been because I didn't give my name. Anyway...

My old records:

Dry Dry Desert
3lap: 1:36.767
Flap: 0:30.134

Mario Circuit
3lap: 1:32.460
Flap: 0:29.513

My new records:

Luigi Circuit
3lap: 1:18.829
Flap: 0:25.586

Wario Colosseum
2lap: 2:07.509
Flap: 1:03.018

Luigi Circuit was my first Expert B, and its ghost still gave me trouble - the improvement was less than a tenth of a second, nowhere near enough to get to Expert A. I got the next standard on the other records, though.

[Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Just 4 Expert C's to go, and then what am I going to do? I'll have mostly Expert B's and will have no clear choice of what to race! With all 3lap here, my 3laps are now as good as my flaps!

Dry Dry Desert
3lap: 1:36.033

Mushroom Bridge
