career mode: timer starts when you click play on the first level of easy street, timer ends when the game displays the ending screen, outside of ng+, you have to start fresh without hacked currency or vip pass
any% rules: you can skip most levels or finish them with less than 3 stars, just the mandatory ones to open up the boss races
100%: beat all of the levels with 3 stars
individual tournaments: each car would have split tournaments, being the engine class and the desired car
100% would be beating all of the engine classes with each car
they would be split between mobile and pc/console since they don't have the extra cars like the grand prix
this one rebalances the karts, but there's no category there, so you will get a run rejected if you posted it to other versions
the karts are slower there, but they have more powerups like turbo karts or leaf blower
all characters - unlock every character, it's only relevant for 1.0 as in 2.0 it's the same as any%
jenga% - finish jenga as fast as you can, timer starts when loading is finished
season% - unlock all of the seasonal karts (recommended to use 1.12.0 to 1.13.9 as they have all of them), best used with date and time exploit
seasonmax% - same as the above, but you need to max upgrade them
any% no powerups - same as any% but no powerups (king sling, turbo kart, leaf blower, kart repair)
telepods% (unlikely) - scan every telepod in the game, you can use qr codes to make it easier (it works for both 1.0 and 2.0, but best on the first since the ones in 2.0 only unlock downgraded karts)
individual episodes% - for 1.0, this will include all of the 5 episodes, but for 2.0 it will include the 11 unlockable characters :bomb - chuck
max% - max out and unlock every kart, unlock every character and 100% every episode
100%- get all episodes to show the challenge rounds counter, so you need to get all modes of each track to have a challenge
i think the servers shut down but the latest one removed all of the modes except for the weekly race set
in certain 1.0 versions, if you complete a race and the results screen appears, you can click the topbar and click change racers, which will allow you to skip the score tally, it might be useful for a run
