Default Re: Nintendo 3DS Friend Codes/QR Codes

Anyone here time trial? Here are some of my best times. Would be interested to see if anyone can beat these, and their car setups/tricks if they can.

Toad Circuit: 1:24:226
Luigi Raceway: 1:46.429
Rock Rock Mountain: 2:09.688
Neo Bowser City: 1:53.891
Kalimari Desert: 1:42:949
Rainbow Road (Snes): 1:17.441
Koopa Beach: 1:35.999

I've found there are a lot of dumb and kind of random things that can save time on a lot of these tracks, though I'm interested in figuring them out. e.g. on neo bowser city, when you drift the ascending spiral to the left, if you approach really far to the left rather than straight on and cut as close to the wall as possible, you'll get a red boost you can't get if you drift the turn normally and you save ~1 second, each lap.

Which feels so random. I have a feeling that getting a faster time on rainbow road involves squeezing out more reds.
