I think this game needs harder skips. All the skips are really easy to pull-off and cause an almost guaranteed win. It takes away from other people's experience. I still love these skips though. My favorite is the Sunahara Desert ones because they are overpowered.

The hibashira speedway one is possible on all speeds. The storm coast one is barely possible on subsonic. All you need to use is 90% of your boost. The chouku city gap jump shortcut can be done with two individual boosts on subsonic and one boost on supersonic.

If they fix how far you have to drive in the patch that would get rid of most of the shortcuts like storm coast and all the backwards ones. It would not effect the Chouku City gap jump shortcut though or the Sunahara Desert short cuts because they involve moving farther along the track and shortcuts instead of just making a lap count. I'm not sure though.
