Mario Universe Time Trial Challenge Thread! This Week: Donut Plains 3!

[ImaClubYou]

Hello people, I just hatched a beautiful idea! A Time Trial Challenge!

Here we record our best times for each course to share strategies, learn new tricks, and of course, compete! Winners recieve bragging rights while the loser weeps and transforms into a weenie!

The challenges will be weekly every Monday(sorry about today I know it's late and actually Tuesday)... Winners of each Trial will have their names printed in GOLD and have their run featured at the top page. Remember there's only 32 tracks so eventually we're stepping back. Courses will be randomly generated until they are all gone and then reset!

Don't worry about any high quality recording audio, you can use anything to record! Even a potato! Record at night with the lights off! No biggie!

Now then, this weeks challenge! Donut Plains 3!

Can you beat my time? 1:22:063

Let the racing begin!

Note that you can technically "cheat" and wait for people to post and try to beat them. You can do things like surprise post on the last day. Anything goes, really.

These people are getting red boosts on that first corner and im just like

....... wat

 

[ImaClubYou]

Yeah.. they could possibly be manipulating the slow down from the grass or even braking at points. Haven't really delved down the depths that far yet, haha.

And usually Smashboards people share info so I'll wait before I join a new forum, lol.

The early red MT's are from a technique called softdrifting. Basically you hold the control stick at a 45-degree angle and alternate rather than strictly left-to-right, which makes your drift not as tight as compared to the latter.

For example, if you want to drift right, hold your control stick at the top-right position. This will charge your MT as if you are mashing the control stick completely right, without going as tight.

It's actually a fairly hard technique to do, and I haven't even come close to mastering it yet.

Definitely hard. I managed to do it a couple times but we all know we gotta do it 3 times in a Time Trial, lol.

Remember, if you want to, you can repost a new run and overwrite your old one.

 

[KuroganeHammer]

new course imo

This thread ain't goin nowhere. But if you need a new track, I got Bowser's Castle.

Feel free to make the thread you intended to make if you want to.
