I found a glitch in the game that gives you a ton of speed

The rules have now been updated.

The leaderboards are up now!

fun fact: one long-time community member, Bayesic, has a series on youtube where he tries to beat staff ghosts in time trials without r/zr

the whole category will not happen

200cc easy cpus would be the easiest and fastest. However this category includes basically just normal driving for one race. Personally I don't think this category would be good.

Ok and why is it called standard kart%?

the only idea here that isnt completely dumb/just not a fun speedrun is all items and that too is kinda stupid. Loss% is basically not a speedrun and lakitu% would be 1 second long. Random tracks you just reset until you get the 16 shortest tracks.

sounds like an awful category where you would just go on bowsers castle, get the 1st box, pull a green and throw it at the wall from which it would bounce back at you and you'll have done it in like 5 seconds.

You have to get to 1st and then throw the shell. The shell must target you.

digital saves a lot of time over physical on loading screens, 3 seconds on the first one and 1 on every other one

isnt this just 100%+the vs mode and battle mode stuff? This would take 16+ hours

Yes you can! There are no rules that ban the use of smart steering.

I mean Shine Thief speedruns already exist so why not do it for the rest of the battle modes

why would we have to make a change

this would be blue yourself but worse

The 16-track categories are the nitro tracks, retro tracks and bonus tracks. The mods also didn't include 32 tracks in the rules because its a dead category.
