I was going for a new flap pr on rBC when I realized that it could be faster to do a 3-0-0 shroomstrat. I did the flap on the 1st lap, and it was a pretty nice lap, and I kept going to finish the run. The next 2 laps were pretty sloppy, but still not bad, and I beat my current 3-lap pr by over a second. I'm not sure if it will be faster for real rBC tt'ers, but I was pretty surprised when I did this.
Definately not faster. Especially the last mushroom, it's basically a 'filler shroom'. And there's no reason to do a 3-0-0 strat, the Thwomps don't trouble the current WR, so there's no point.
People are soooooooooooooooooo stupid. The only time a possibility of grouping shrooms arises is where the combined section of track cut off is greater than one shroomspot repeated three times. There is no logic in this at all as there is clearly going to be one shroomspot that is the best of the three.
