This could be a tough one as if you slow down the kart picked has crap acceleration, plus there are a few different routes that could be used

My early time is

MikeF / Mike / 2.19.333 / Wiimote & Nunchuck

[r3z]

I think the times for this round are going to be pretty close. Just had a quick go..

r3z / r|3|z / 2.16.670 / Wiimote & Nunchuck / 5026-4593-1446

[VR46]

Quick 20 minute blast

DavidHolliss / David / 2.33.633 / Cube Controller

Can Gradius/r3z/MikeF send me over a ghost please, another new track to me and can't find any decent time saving opportunities really, three good laps would see me into the 2.29's but that's about it

[Kieran76]

Forgot to post my last time, will try to have a crack at this tomorrow. I might do better now I have had the pot taken off my arm.

Watching the expert ghost helped somewhat

[r3z]

I've sent you my ghost.. I pretty much just copied the expert.

[Gradius]

Gradius / Gradius / 2:16.526 / GC Pad

I've missed the first 2 rounds but i thought i'd join in.

feel free to add me

Will have a go at this track tomoz before work (work is at 2). Gradius i will add you tomoz so feel free to add me as well. Wonder if this will be a photo finish like the previous round.

edit: Scratch that, I was using my Mii...

[r3z]

A quick updated time just to go back ahead of Gradius (I've added you, by the way ).. I actually hit a Shy Guy before the very last bend so should be able to lower it a little to under 2.16, but I don't think any huge improvements are going to be possible unless there's a different way of tackling the course from the expert ghost.

r3z / r|3|z / 2.16.440 / Wiimote & Nunchuck / 5026-4593-1446

[MikeF]

I need to watch the expert ghost as my time was set doing it differently. Will get some time on this tonight before the football and try to improve my time again.

Where are people using the shroom boost's?

[MikeF]

After watching the world record time (albeit on a bike) there is a massive time saving jump although I am not sure if it is possible in a car. Will be having a go tonight to see if I can make it

[VR46]

Got me intrigued now, guess it involves the chicane near the end of the lap, the car you chose is so heavy guessing it won't be possible anyway

I've been using one 'shroom a lap - to get me through the last bit of deep snow just before the final bend, otherwise having to drive 'round it takes an age (I keep to the left avoiding the first two deep bits then 'shroom through the last) - not saying that's the fastest route but is best I can come up with so far.

[MikeF]

I have been using my shroom after the first ramp after the boost tunnel, but I am goign to adjust my route so I can mini boost that part now and save it for later
