I finally did it! After hours upon hours of grinding this category, I finally got the STTWR!

This record is incredibly optimized. This record is only 1 millisecond from the human limit, barring a major revolution of this category. I know that this record isn't perfect, but for now, I'm happy with it, and I know I won't be trying to improve this anytime soon. But for anyone out there who's insane enough to be willing to push the boundaries of this category, you have my best wishes.

Analysis of the run:

Lap 1: This was a good, solid lap; it is actually almost perfect pace. As far as lap ones go, this one was great, and it set me up with a very good chance to barely lose to Troy.

Lap 2: This lap was very shaky. The beginning of the lap was fine, but unfortunately a great mountain section and glitch recovery caused me to save way too much time, and I went into lap 3 too far ahead. Lap 2 was the worst lap of the run.

Lap 3: Incredibly clutch. After seeing the lap 2 split, I knew that I had some ground to close between me and Troy. I was immediately able to lose some time at the start of the lap by going wide and missing the first wheelie after the miniturbo. I then had a nearly perfect first turn after cannon, causing me to lose a MASSIVE amount of time - just what I needed. This, combined with missing the instant wheelie upon landing put me on great pace. After a pretty standard glitch and recovery, I was able to come up with an absolutely CLUTCH drop on the bridge. An almost frame-perfect wheelie allowed me to barely secure the record. I know it could have been barely faster, but considering the risk, I'm just glad I was able to delay the wheelie enough to barely get beaten by Troy.
