I just can't keep away from TASing this lap, can I? 23"65, down from 24"21, a good 0"56 removed. Mid-23s as predicted by our RTA speedrunners. Take my advice, taking advice from people who knows things can often show good results. Still not sure if I'm in a good position for the curve ahead, but at least I made sure not to sacrifice speed after the second speed arrow.
I was having trouble slowing down, but then I realized the perfect slowdown. Those things that slow you down on either side simply affect your position, and have no effect on your momentum or velocity. Therefore, I find these things to be a nice boon in this case. Could I have taken a bump earlier? Possibly, but this one extra bump has already shown nice results. I've also ended up taking other paths on the end of this lap, curious how many frames are left to find here. Wonder how much more this bump can push us.
Was interesting to see my script indicating I was past the 20 frame range I set of where my ghost was.
