Edit since I forgot to mention it like a fool: this starts from a save state made from the previous inputs of the Beginner course file of mine.
There is some noticeable parts where I intentionally drive into the shoulder. This is to slow down for the much tighter truns that are becoming more frequent.
For reference, the RTA world record is 3:35.36 and the total best RTA is the same from what I could find.

Stage times

I think I got the time disparity figured out. So checkpoints on turns are a bit tricky to really get a good accurate time for. Sometimes getting a better time on the course at the turn start can result in a worse time in the course after the turn, and vice versa. Though I reckon that's not quite enough to explain the entire 0.40 second time difference since the turn disparity would probably be around 0.03-0.30 second difference. The rest is probably because I'm doing this by hand with TAStudio as a preliminary check.

Mm, I hear you on mid-turn checkpoints, I agree that shouldn't explain the discrepancy as one corner is often 0.1, .15 at worst when unoptimised. I posted a link to an unmarked TAS on your Africa TAS which is a useful referent. I'll play your run and sync it with the gold S10 then make a vid, we both use Bizhawk so the problem certainly isn't lag. If you'd like to add me on Discord I'd be glad to do a deeper investigation and discussion: its great to see someone else as interested in the game!
