Inemuri_japon time is for the mini ride-on version. It is much easier and course is different to the sit down. Under the new rules it isn't valid. Can we not add a new leader board for ride on runs?
i will post a compare of the ride on to the sit down later.
I guess we can add a leaderboard for ride on runs. Or something to that effect. I originally wanted to reject those runs in general,first one was submitted wrong,and had no in game time in the video,as well as both of his runs being just a replay instead of being recorded 1:1. I'll make a ride-on board revision later in the day. Or even just list them as level runs. I must have gotten the two confused when looking at his run.
Thanks Kusanagi765 I think it might also help people who wanna try the easier versions for speed running. You might want to beware of the other JP only version which was a limited edition with no turbo but a max speed of 323/324KMP. I would love a board for it but I know you are busy, so I'm not too bothered if you don't add it . But you might like to since it is super easy to speed run. You don't have the same frustrations compared to running sit down. Here is a video of that one:
I wouldn't see a problem with having the LE as a run type. Thinking I'm going to list the LE/no turbo and Ride On types as their own sub category/level. Which rom is that? I know there's a Limited Edition upgrade rom,but I've never seen that one before.
It's for this version: 
It was a special limited Japanese version of the game.
I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post links here to MAME roms.
But it will come up if you search: Super Hang-On (ride-on, Japan, FD1094 317-0038) ROM
I would try the Mame version of Super hang on but i dont have a PC on me i only got the Playstation network version. Im kinda didnt know there were versions of Super hang-on in my mind i thought they were all the same lol.
Yeah a lot of people don't know about the versions. I only know due to having it on the 3DS and it comes with the two main versions, and looking up runs online I noticed differences in peoples times and courses. Once we have the other board up for the other two versions we can submit times for the mini ride on version. The sit down version is the hardest version followed by mini ride on then limited edition. I think the PSN version counts since it's based on in game time, it would just be recording/streaming it and then cutting the best run out. I have Yakuza 0 and that also has mini ride on to play in the game. From playing the MD/GEN version is identical courses to the ride-on version, just plays slower and feels more like you're driving in treacle.
If it's an arcade port,it counts for the most part. Not too sure about the Yakuza port or the GBA version. I have no clue what the GBA version is based on,whether it's Ride-On or sit-down,but both PSN and XBLA count as long as the time is shown,and Japon,both those ports have settings that let you choose between course type. I have most of the day Saturday,so I'll be sitting and figuring out what boards to assemble for the three different versions.
I think the weird versions like the gba and other ports would be their own thing, since the play and handle slightly different like the MD/GEN version even if they are based on one version or another.
To give my take on how to do the boards: Sit-Down Version with the four course category. Ride-On Version with the four course category. Limited Edition Ride-On (No Turbo) with the four course category.
Rules for NPC setting I take it you will stick with the standard settings while timer won't matter? TBH this is where it can get tricky since being able to tell what settings some one is on for NPC either means they have to show the settings before a run or checkers will have to able to know the tell differences like two NPC's appearing on first turn for normal rather then the one for easy on the beginners course. Problem is I haven't checked for the harder courses to see if they have a tell like the beginners. Of course you can leave it to not matter or you could create sub sections for each version on different NPC settings Easy/Nomal/Hard/Hardest. Really up to you on this.
This covers the different ports of S.Hang-On just so you know of potential versions. http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/hangon/hangon.htm
