~~''TODO: Finish~~ this''

The current strategy for the NG 3lap is to drive 3 laps normally. To begin the race, you must lose some time in order to get a [[Quantised movement#Stick | stick]] on the stairs at full speed. In this particular TAS, it is opted to lose time during the [[start slide]] and then wheelie slightly late during the start boost. After the stair stick, you perform a sequence known as the "double banister trick" where you; drive onto the edge of the left banister, fall off and trick such that you immediately land, hop and drift to realign to the right, wheelie to reach max trick boost speed, hop such that you can land flush on the back end of the banister, wheelie to ensure you stick, then trick. You then align yourself towards the shortcut path, using the first mushroom before immediately hopping to drift through the shortcut. During this drift, you charge a miniturbo, which you release when the boost runs out, as well as wheelieing. Next, you perform a [[Low trick#RFH low trick | RFH low trick]] and pass through the fence below to fall to the ground faster. You then wheelie and align towards the rightmost banister, where you perform the double banister trick (on the hop to get the stick at the top, you can use the opposite edge instead of the middle, which can be done on all double banister tricks except the initial one on lap 1). After this, you are coming in from too far to the right, so must [[Drift#Spin drift | spin drift]] around the U-turn. However, it is fastest to hold the drift and [[Wallclip#Bonk clip]] as you release the MT instead of doing a [[chain drift]] as soon as the MT is charged and charging/releasing a second one. After the bonk clip, you wheelie and align yourself towards the left edge of the first (what is it called), and trick off the first edge past the half-way point, letting you continue your movement forwards as you [[low trick]] with a drift. Upon landing from the first trick, you align for the a similar spot on the right side of the second (what is it called) and low trick with a wheelie. Upon landing from the second trick, you align to the right side of the fountain, and [[Trick#Buffering | buffer]] the first of two tricks, allowing you to delay the second. The next U-turn is taken similarly to the first (by holding a single drift), and the MT is released at a point which balances the time spent in a drift with the time spent on the following boost panel. On the following turn, you clip drift the pillar in the middle of the split path to release the MT from the drift sooner. When exiting the mall, you low trick the (what is it called) with a drift, then [[Trick#Hop trick | hop trick]] off the boost ramp before hitting the wall beside it, performing a [[wall trick]]. Finally, you charge/release a MT from a drift into the first boost panel, [[Wheelie#Rehop | rehop]] to align for the second, rehop to align for the third, and charge/release a MT from a drift into the finish line. Laps 2 and 3 use the exact same strategies, except for the first escalator using the modified double banister trick, the wall trick exiting the mall using a spin hop trick (this was found after lap 1 was completed), and the different car cycles requiring differing types of hopping and drifting on each boost panel.

~~''TODO: Finish this''~~

The current strategy for the NG flap is to drive 1 lap normally. The strategies used are slightly earlier revisions of those demonstrated in the NG 3lap. The first mushroom is used to RFH over the stairs before the first double banister trick, the second mushroom is used in the regular shroomspot, and the third mushroom is used on the turn before the boost panels.

'''NU 3lap'''

* Flame Runner is faster than Mach Bike

* On lap 1, it is faster to go OOB after the first escalator using HWG (commonly referred to as "TAS comp entry") to skip directly to the "Coconut Garden" area, then use the first mushroom to perform the "high jump strat" to return OOB and complete the lap

* It is faster to charge a MT when entering the parking lot OOB

* On lap 2, it is faster to use the second mushroom to perform the high jump strat to return OOB in a similar manner to the NU flap

* On lap 3, it is faster to perform the exact same route as lap 2 as described above

'''NU flap'''

* It is faster to charge a MT during the second shroom

'''NG 3lap'''

* It is possible to get the initial stair stick without losing time due to a better start slide

* On cycles where the escalator is going up, it is faster to land the first banister trick on the escalator, then RFH eject to perform the second trick, thanks to [[Moving road velocity | MRV]] provided from the escalator

* On cycles where the escalator is going down, it is faster to perform the second banister trick by dropping your wheelie to stick instead of hopping and wheelieing

* It is faster to trick off the banister leading towards the shroomspot

* It is faster to perform a double trick combined with a wall trick on the second trick after the shroomspot

* It is faster to do the double trick on the fountain slightly differently (I'm not entirely sure what Monster did differently, need help from Jello to explain)

* It is faster to [[Wheelie#Rewheelie | rewheelie]] after releasing the MT at the top of the second U-turn to get less time spent in a drift and more time spent on the boost panel

'''NG flap'''

* The flap simply needs updating to all the new NG 3lap strats

=== Potential timesaves ===

''~~TODO: Finish this~~''

'''UR 3lap'''

* It is not known whether or not [[Vehicles#Bullet Bike | Bullet Bike]] is slower than [[Vehicles#Mach Bike | Mach Bike]].

'''NU 3lap'''

* It is not know whether or not [[Vehicles#Shooting Star | Shooting Star]] can perform the "high jump strat", which would let the vehicle rival IDBs, due to the use of superhopping being viable.
