Drew Weatherton | [TAS] Mario Kart 64 Mario Raceway flap 9"67 in 8K @weatherton | Uploaded 3 years ago | Updated 1 minute ago
Last year, Forest64 found that he was able to drive through certain corners of the KD fence in a different way that seemed to suggest Mario 64 style hit box orientations. As we discussed this, I suggested trying the Mario Raceway corner you see in this TAS and it worked. It's pretty precise to do in RTA but not nearly as precise as the Kalimari Desert clip (think a quarter unit with good frame spacing rather than floating point precision).
Full details about how this works and how these new "drive through walls" mechanic affects other courses are described in the new Bismuth video (youtu.be/2_uRIyAgtpE) that Forest64, micro500 and I collaborated on over the last couple months.

Its a bit slower (since you miss out on a mini turbo), but this looks pretty cool, so I thought Id share.")

This was a theoretical setup to improve the lap time of the Weathertenko lap skip. I was working on the All Cups TAS and decided to give it a go in 150cc. Turns out it was possible there. Id say this is very likely also possible in Time Trials as I was able to go over the wall (i.e. go too high) in 150cc. Good luck to any who try to hit this in an RTA!")

Made this on 6/5/2021. Didnt upload for some reason but figured Id share. It may be faster to go over this whole section shroomless (TAS). As long as you get a few bounces and get 4x null tires (from height) while coming up on the top of the hill.")

This is a quick demo showing that it is beneficial to get a second tire set to null and then taking a different angle back to the road. This demo loses probably ~2 frames due to poor execution of the first wall hit (you can see my mushroom ran out before I hit the wall).
Racing against Dan Burbanks world record 3-lap time (he played on PAL at 15777 but Im playing it back on NTSC which comes in at 13794). Dans run had a good wall hit mystery boost and did hit the wall a second time but I confirmed it did not get a second tire set to null. Getting the front left tire set to null is pretty simple to do by just bumping into the wall. Getting the back left tire is much more difficult and seems to require good timing and angle toward an open corner. The open corner here is pretty close to 180 degrees so its hard to get close enough with the back tire without getting pushed away by the adjacent walls.
Its possible to get the front left tire set to null without hitting the wall. With that, it seems this should be even faster - perhaps substantially so.

Speedrunners always go to the right in the bat house, heck theres even a large red arrow telling you to do that. I worked really hard to take a smooth path going left and the result is within about a frame of going to the right. Unfortunately its still slower though. For this reason plus the fact that I need to finish this lap further ahead of Bowser, Im redoing parts of this level right now (and will be going to the right in the bat house). Still, I wanted to share this frantic run with you :)")
