So I was looking at checkpoint maps the other day and noticed that the finish line on this track doesn't extend all the way to the left pole. Any sane human being would not think twice about something like that, but I decided to throw myself at the pole with shooting star for about 3 hours, and by some miracle I actually got a clip without crossing backwards. After several more hours, I was able to land back on the track while avoiding the last checkpoint using a second shroom, which resulted in this run:    • rGV2 2 shroom  

Where this really gets insane is when I sent the ghost to    / @mikul958  , who proved it was possible to land back at full speed without using a second shroom. This means that the entire ultra shortcut part is done using only one shroom, which in turn means... that this is 3-lap viable. Even with the required checkpoint 1 hit, 12-13s laps should be possible with only one shroom. This track is already dead and we haven't even started superhopping yet.

Huge props to Mikul for landing the one shroom and optimizing this down to a sub 8, you should definitely go sub to him if you somehow haven't already.
