mario kart NUMBER_TOKEN came out the same year as super mario NUMBER_TOKEN both in NUMBER_TOKEN but when it comes to hardcore competition it is way more ancient racing games facilitated speedrunning communities far easier and far earlier because everything was already timed within the game which made score keeping simple so by the time super mario NUMBER_TOKEN speedrunning got off the ground in the mid-NUMBER_TOKENs people had already been optimizing mario kart NUMBER_TOKEN for a decade needless to say after NUMBER_TOKEN years the world records in mario kart NUMBER_TOKEN are extremely difficult and extremely precise especially when it comes to the non-shortcut records where the routes and strategies have remained much the same for many many years there are NUMBER_TOKEN tracks in the game with each track allowing players to compete for both the full NUMBER_TOKEN lap time and the fastest lap time this totals NUMBER_TOKEN world records up for grabs despite mario NUMBER_TOKEN being so difficult at the top level the thought of someone holding every single world record was surprisingly not a crazy one in fact the player matthias roostermeyer came agonizingly close on multiple occasions if you haven't watched it i highly recommend summoning salt video covering matthias's quest while matthias didn't quite achieve the elusive sweep in NUMBER_TOKEN the player dan burbank did on the NUMBER_TOKENth of august dan tied the NUMBER_TOKEN lap record on sherbert island cementing the full NUMBER_TOKEN out of NUMBER_TOKEN possible records unfortunately this event was also marred in some controversy and sadly matthias retired several days later citing unsportsmanlike behavior but credit where credit is due dan burbank was the one who finally managed to pull it off and the achievement cannot be ignored
