You found the best way to bypass the thing that set (some type of)walls properties in HTZ1. I managed to do this behind the 10 rings box just now but got hurt by an ennemy hidden in the wall ;P. Can't wait to see the HTZ2 prblem solved.
Edit: I tried it I think it may be even faster than the current path. o_o
I think there's a little zip possibility in AR1 on the first loop...
When you run and start rolling, you get ejected by the left... the only problem is that the first little slope of the level make you lose speed. ><'
There's a zip in AR2 that i'd like to use but it seems impossible...
I get ejected from the wall to the left but when the screen starts scrolling to the right, I die after few seconds.
The any% use the lava as a shortcut, with Sonic center maps, I found another way into the wall ;P I'm now searching for MT1.
Oil Ocean Zone 2: 42sec (instead of 57sec)

I used a zip, still sloppy, but faster than the last one.
Edit: Saved 10 sec (in-game time) in CP1.
Hey, already 1min 07sec of in-game time saved with 2 levels, I must find a new shortcut in HTZ2....

That zip ?
Edit: Oh and have you found a faster path in AR1 ? I didn't search a lot in this one...

Edit: 12sec faster than my youtube WIP. 11sec slower than Sonic & Tails run...

I found this in DIABPSX.bin from my Diablo cd (psx) with an Hex editor
