Pretty sure this is the best you can do with this strategy. No, you cannot get 4.32 by waiting until after 2:08 (at least not with this strategy).

Made this in a few hours. Not very optimized, but shows potential strategy. This should be able to go under 15 seconds.
First ~5 seconds taken from Weathertons all cups TAS, rest by me.")

Can get sub 9 if I improve lap 3 or just use mushrooms better.
Exact time = 9.1015

If you try this, be sure to save your ghost so it can be shared for proof.
Proof of concept TAS. Have to land exactly on the fence (x = -688) in order to clip through, so very precise.")

No sub 14, but theres much more time to save it doesnt really matter. Uploading since its a large improvement over the old TAS and I dont know when Ill feel like trying this again. I dont understand what makes you go fast here. Exact time = 14.0314

This strategy has been known for 6 months, no its not going to be done RTA, stop asking Abney about it.
Doesnt use Lakitu, which means it should work on every version of the game. Significantly faster than the other two strategies, which is surprising. Also you can see the sideways bus for a few frames, which is nice.
This track has a lot of interesting strategies to set up the lapskips, so was pretty fun to work on. Might make a video showing/explaining the many ideas for this track if I feel like it.

Used old 3lap for first 2.5 laps, and second half of new fast lap TAS for second half of lap 3 (since lakitu places you in same exact spot for both 3lap and flap, can reuse same input for both). Had to redo the bowl cut on lap 1 since that used a shroom in the old TAS, but shrooming at the end saves more time (bowl shroom saves about 0.5, ending shroom about 0.8). Can probably save a few more frames there, but this is good enough for now.
Why didnt I do the new SC on all 3 laps? Read the description of the fast lap TAS to find out: [https://youtu.be/3QAq8ktt8Xg] Summary: After doing the new SC, you cannot warp from pink wall to ramp. The warp from wall to ramp saves ~6 seconds, and the new bounce to stands SC saves ~5 seconds, so it is not worth doing the new SC on laps 1 or 2.
Now you might be thinking: Even though the warp to wall saves more time than the bounce to stands, the warp can only be done twice in a 3lap, while the bounce to stands can be done 3 times. 6x2=12 seconds, and 5x3=15 seconds, so isnt it better to do just bounce to the stands on all 3 laps? Also, the ~5 second timesave is compared to the finish line warp, but on laps 1 and 2 you drive around the long way, so doesnt the new SC actually save ~6 seconds on those laps? The answer to those questions is probably yes, but I didnt think of doing that until I was writing this description. But doing that means I cant just copy the inputs from the fast lap TAS, and my head hurts from all the bouncing so I dont want to do it again so soon. (Ill probably do it next weekend)
[The previous paragraph is wrong, with the current bounce it is only faster to do it once.]
Exact time = 1:20.0643
