Only thing I can think of is to turn the rumble on. Oh and make sure you have sound set to sync with game. That probably makes a difference. I'll get a video up in a few. Edit> Video is up, Grab it here http://rapidshare.de/files/13453851/Blaze-F-ZeroX-DeathRace.avi.html Requires XviD codec.

Samurai Goroh, can you explain the rail slide in depth? how does it work? Also the problem with using the 3 cars you mentioned is that they are all unlockables. So no recording from power on. A couple of videos on that site show people getting insane speed during a 64DD custom track jump, how are they doing this? My only guess was that there were bombs in midair that they used to propel themselves. But if it's just something you can do during a normal jump would love to know as it would be helpful. Also- if it's faster to boost ahead then spin attack, it would probably be possible to boost past everyone, then spin attack all the cars. As you can pretty much be in constant spin attack if your timing is frame on.

I made a quick very unoptimized run of the F-Zero X Death Race. It is totally unoptimized and I like watching TAS's more than creating them so I decided to throw it out and watch it get completely smashed. The in-game time for my run is 19.923 seconds. I have no clue what the world record time is, though some claim 23 seconds. The best video I've seen is 55.403 seconds. Seen here: http://speeddemosarchive.com/yabb/YaBB.pl?board=consoles_newer;action=display;num=1127928791 There are some very obvious problems with the run. Such as the last car being way out in front. Some tips. Boost lasts exactly 100 frames. You can aim when you hit enemies to hit other enemies in front. This does cause some problems though, such as the last car I killed. it gave him a boost so he was far ahead. Which brings me to the last tip I have. Getting hit from behind gives you a slight speed boost, as cars are destroyed they spin around. If you time it right you can get them to spin into the back of your vehicle giving you a speed boost.
