2m11s on Sweet sweet. Spent a half hour failing to beat that time earlier,

How do you get the actual jpeg to embed from tumblr? I can't find an image only link.

Nice time on Sweet Sweet Canyon Brad.

My initial attempts on these last night

I right click on the image, "get image URL" then post here in the [img] tags. Easiest way possible I believe?

[Brad]

Thanks bud. Bit convoluted but no moreso than ps4!

I use google chrome, right click and select Copy image and then paste here.

[Stakers]

I'm quite happy with Sweet Sweet Canyon time but haven't got a clue what the best route for Thwomp Ruins is, especially as the level changes each lap, happy to discuss strats.

[Lurch]

Here's my first attempts. yeah thwomp's a bit tricky, i've been taking that shortcut at the start with a mushroom then taking the left hand route when it splits, going up on the wall for the boosts then through the middle on the last lap as it seems to only open up then. no idea if thats the best way... and i'm just going straight down the middle on the home stretch, ignoring the ramps on the left and right

[Stakers]

I've been using the mushroom at the start but not going up the ramp. It's tricky to not lose a load of speed on the grass though. I've had better runs but that time is the only one where I've hit each mushroom shortcut ok each lap.
Been avoiding the ramps on the end too, I always end up in the grass at the side of the track. I imagine i'll have to start using them by the end of the week!

I haven't been using the wall boosts, will give it a go. Cheers

Phew, that was tough man, good times!

[Neon Ignition]

I gave Sweet Sweet a quick go, seems like I have the right route but not yet tight enough on corners or getting all the coins. Thwomp I haven't touched yet, will take some proper time that one. After I got my time though I checked here and had a seizure on seeing 1.47 for Lurch Good job I saw the photo, I'm way off as it is!

[Brad]

Good job I'm no longer a mod. I'd just ban lurch for the duration
