My previous record here was dated (you could tell by the WW2 audio featured throughout)

I did not truly understand the ring mechanics at the time and could not consistently pull jackpot after jackpot, I was practically new at the game (which I was lol)

With that being said, I do not know if the shortcuts here are faster than the traditional path. They might be faster by just a little during the 2nd lap but the amount of speed you gain might make it slower to utilize them properly without bonking against the walls.

Though I could be wrong on this (fingers crossed, it would make this map far more fleshed out than what I presented here).
