Not bad for my first run, just to get me on the boards here. Notable time losses during this included, but were not limited to:

• sub-optimal setup (DK, Blue Falcon)
• a total of six (shameful) pre-start burnouts
• notable disasters on Cloudtop Cruise, Twisted Mansion, Donut Plains 3, Moo Moo Meadows, DK Jungle, Mario Circuit and Piranha Plant Slide

Other future timesavers include:

• learning optimal coin collection routes for the majority of the courses
• learning/implementing fire-hopping

With added learning and elimination of errors, this time should improve by multiple minutes.
