Kinda agree there Djungle.. The MC1 track doesn't really push your skills to the limit. Does prove you have a lot of patience and tenacity to stick with the same mind-numbing task for hours on end . i usually get bored after a few dozen tries

It has been 3 weeks, Leo, since you posted your 1'58"67. When are you going lower?

Agreed. I also am returning to GBA, and I set some new awsome times (in GBA), and I aslo got to talk with Boris van Katwijk. Sadly, just 4 hours after the meeting, my computer crashed.(intrumentational error) Its a good thing the video made it to you Dave, because there was no back up. Phew. Those computers. You treat them wrong, they complain. Treat them with care, and they never seem to thank you. *sigh* Oh Well. Maybe another time I'll fix the computer the rest of the way. I am borrowing my dads, BTW.

Kort, that's the strangest post from you yet. 20 hours before your post, I replied to your e-mail that supposedly had the video attached. The attachment you sent was a "zero-file" zip file, meaning it had no contents. You didn't reply to my response.
Now you go out of your way to state that the video made it to me, there is no back up, and you have no immediate plans to fully restore your computer, or, conveniently enough . . . to play SNES. Maybe I've been watching too much Law & Order lately, but this looks like a set-up designed to extricate you from providing proof . . . "My computer is not available, my video is gone, the emulator itself is gone, and I'm playing GBA now." Honestly, I don't think the video would have convinced anyone anyway considering that you said it was 1'47"55 (SNES DW1, for the record). That time would rank in the lower half of the chart.
Let me get back to basics. We all have a very hard time believing that you can't even provide screenshots. Listen, my 14-year old step-daughter has a $20 pocket digital camera that looks like an over-sized pen. SHE could take screenshots if needed, why can't you?

I looked through my mailbox as a last resort to find it, and I found it. Emailed it straight back to you! Sorry for the confusion, and I would have done it last night, but I was forced to go to bed. Kort Everett Jackson

BTW, Sorry for the last post before I said I found it again.
It usually takes me 2 days (even longer sometimes) to check my email, so I am very sorry for the fact that I assumed you got it. Only this morning did I check my email. I also checked my saved messages folder, and found the file, redownloaded it (attachements are part of the message, and goes with it to the saved messages folder.) and checked it for errors, then resent the file with a quick note. Your right on the skill level, but it at THE VERY LEAST, the video backs up my screenshots. Kort Everett Jackson Note: Still writing SNES FAQ for gameFAQs. Going to be very good.....

Still waiting guys...... It has been over 2 months now since I issued this challenge and the only person who has even come close is Leo. After all of the tips I have given, can't someone go lower than 1'58"60?

Rich,
Your lecturing (I hope I spelled it right) us about MC1, and yes...its true...we're slackers compared to the japanese. But instead of waiting for one of us to "surpass" you (God knows when the heck that will happen), why not just try going for the WR?
As you've seen till now non of us can even come close to your record, so while you at it...why not try to make it lower? Besides...you said its been 2 months since any of us got even close to your record...but in the mean time you weren't able to lower your record either.
As my friend Leo mentioned some time ago, we do practice other tracks as well..and of course the GBA. For instance...for the longest time I've been trying to get into the 1'52"99 zone for silence and I'm still around 1'53"06 as we speak. You say your true skill is shown on the MC1 track, but that's where your wrong. You've been playing that track long enough to know every square inch of it, but have you played the other tracks long enough to really be able to top off the records that have been currently affiliated to them? Try to play some tracks like PT2, Silence, FF...that's where your true skill appears, because your gonna have to keep in mind multiple tracks instead of just one.
And all that aside...just playing MC1 one over and over kinda gets boring, y'know? I like F-Zero for all 15 tracks...not just one, so I wish to become good with all of them.
Top Speed
P.S. I don't know how to end this message, hehe. P.P.S. I've been away for a long while I know, but thats because school kicked in and I've been playing mostly RTS's like Starcraft and Warcraft III (and a little bit of the snes StarFox, which is still awesome). I'll try and get back into F-Zero during my spring break, so hold on tight cuz I'm not through yet busting records (well...I still have to start for that matter, hehe)
Untill Later!

Aliek, Nice to see you back!  Hope the record breaking goes well! 
Rich, I think I will have to agree with Aliek. Yes, you do need to improve in other courses, but MC1 also needs lowering, because even though it is a cool record, Leo or DVM will shatter it one day, if it dosen't get upgraded. Take my MC2 lap, when DVM almost broke it, then I went 1/100th faster, then he broke it because I did not race there much anymore. Just 1/100th makes all the difference in keeping a record, or losing it. As for that, DVM can have MC2. Don't think I will be getting it back for a while... It would be a good idea... but until Leo gets 3/100ths away from that record, I wouldn't worry about it. That record can probably last about a year the way the competition is going. IMO, don't go lowering things more unless the competition is knocking right on your door!  Kort Everett Jackson

With the launch of the new F-Zero on the Game Cube, it is safe to say Snes F-Zero intrest may die down. I feel confident that I can retire as the all time greatest Snes Mute City champion. Thank you to all who participated in my Mute City I challenge in attempts to beat my time. I wish you all better luck on the new system.

Why would it? The competion that might die down is the 64 competion because GX will be similiar to that game. But those of us that still prefer the SNES game infront of the 64 game will probably still be playing the SNES game.

I think it's quite amuzing that a person that claims that he's the master of a course is positioned 38th on lap record...
