Previous record was 18.97 by Kimo Xvirus
Revisiting another run I gave up grinding back in 2020/2021. Two records in one week is crazy!
I always knew 17 was just -barely- possible if every single part of the run could be executed perfectly. But this is a really annoying map to optimise with so much awkward geometry to navigate. Still, I put a looot of work into optimising the route to squeeze every last tic out of it. The faster exit setup is the biggest timesave at about 0.6 seconds, and the rest was just raw optimization. Every split this run was the fastest split I'd ever had!
In the back of my mind, I was kinda banking on a tele unstuck to cheese out a 17, though.
Happy to have gotten it the legit way instead :)
