Old strat BKT.
I've beaten all European and American times on this track using only Old strat. I just want to know how people are expecting other people than me (Sam, Adromaster, Alexony, etc.) to be able to beat Monar if they can't even beat my Old strat time.
The current Worldwide top 10 is crap by the way.
I will be going to back to RR new strat one last time before MK8 is released later, I have exams to do now.

Note: I also have a live reaction video of the final time of this PR recorded, and I totally freaked out in it. If you want to see me freak out in a separate video, leave a comment.
Im done here! I did this to show my respect to Doco for all his hard work to push this track all the way from 1:39.112 to 1:36.956. I think he did an amazing job and deserves more credit for it as he for the most part laid down how you are supposed to play Rainbow Road, nowadays you can still see lots of elements he thought of back in some Time Trials by any racer. Without his work, Nassy and Monars battle would have probably lasted a lot shorter and the World Record would have been pushed way less and have been weaker if he did not take the final few leaps from low 1:38 to 1:36.956.
Seventh person to Sub 1:37 on Rainbow Road, third not-Japanese player to do so and third to do it without any new strats.
Bonus clip at the end of the video showcasing how much I no-lifed to get this time.
I dont know what to say, other than the fact that I am so happy all the hard work paid off and I do now have a PR of the same caliber as Doco.
Sam is a dick.")

People said I could not do 1:36 with Blue 7, so I got the Blue 7 & Old strat BKT. :)
Bad time, quite some mistakes.")

Splits:
Section 1: 32.233
Section 2: 35.700
Section 3: 29.253
I do not admit defeat to those who needed either or multiple of the new strategies on the track, which are: Hopping in Section 1, Wallboosting in Section 2, Glider bounce in Section 2 and Tims Hamosphere strat in Section 3 to get a faster time than me.
Too much shit going on in my head/life to write a full description, including my brother who nearly ran away from home last night.")

Ive been wanting this time since 2009, it finally happened a few weeks ago during a one-week comeback to the game to finish what Ive been wanting to do for the years I played Mario Kart 7.
I can not do this with Old strats.
No regrets. I simply am not cut for Mario Kart Wii. Only Mario Kart 7.
Lap 1: Good
Lap 2: UN-F***ING-TASTIC
Lap 3: Good, glad I did the Mander moonump
More videos coming soon, including Pokémon Stadium Episode 6.")

I think this is in the last half of the European top 10 if Im correct...
Ranked 10th on the Players Page on the moment it was made.
Lap 1: 41.578
Lap 2: 39.325
Lap 3: 38.952
This is not perfect, but still pretty decent. I think Im stopping here... Im once again the first to do an epic sub in this country. Lol...
Final Pokémon X video coming whenever I can find the time to upload another 3GB video file.")

Already beaten.
But for those who wanted proof, here it is.
I actually was planning to make this the last Rainbow Road European Record I was going to do, but it was not satisfying to end off RR on that note.")

Last PR of 2013, Happy New Year for everyone watching.
I hate this track, but I like the PR because it contains all numbers from 1 through 6.
Every Lap was a best split. No idea how to improve... Lol...
#24 on the Players Page when this was uploaded.")

This is the second of the last three videos I am uploading before my month break.
I really hate SNES Rainbow Road, but I found some interesting Ghosts when looking on my SpotPass list, I wanted to race Demon, Naio and NOBUO all at the same time, this is why I used the 7 Ghosts option, their times were like:
Demon: 1:13.6
Naio: 1:13.8
NOBUO 1:15.1
Still improvable when getting a new 1:13.9 Ghost one day, but I really do not want to waste my time on that right now...
Note: A little fail in editing of the bottom screen, Sony Vegas was really testing my patience yesterday...")
