Previous WR - 2:35:42 by Taechuk

This is the first time the game has had video proof for a full game record, so that's pretty neat. I only beat the record by 14 seconds but it can go so much lower.
This run loses 35 seconds to Boulder Canyon key and 45-50 seconds to sand puzzle RNG(?). Ideally, the sand puzzle will give me 150 coins, and combined with the 25 I leave Jungle Falls with, I'd be able to buy the Car Air B bodywork with the race bodywork upgrades saving a second trip to the tent and plenty of time throughout the rest of the Dino Domain driving (including the Wish Race!).
Another funny thing is that my IGT 2:30:30 is an exact tie with my Diddy Kong Racing N64 100% PB that I got 7 years ago. I've always enjoyed these games when I played them, and it's neat to have a connection like that. It made me irrationally happy to notice that coincidence.
