This was pretty fun to make. I might go through some more tracks and make spear TASes. I discovered a few faster strats on laps 2 and 3 which I did not expect to work, including the single drift strat at the U turn. I think this could probably be pushed down to a low 1:40 if fully optimised but I don't really wanna spend too much time on an irrelevant category like this when I have much more important things to do.
