The biggest event in the history of MKDS was probably brought by Thomas, who, with the help of his friends Fabien Da Silva and Giulio Centrone, formed the famous alliance G-TB14 to be able to overcome the world champion of the time, Sascha Brauninger, back in May 2007. This event rocked the world of karting and allowed Thomas, Fabien and Giulio to move up a spot each in the rankings, with Thomas getting the world champion crown back another time. Tons of WRs accompanied this alliance, for all of the three karters, which completely surprised everyone amongst the MKDS community, for they had started giving up on seeing a new champion defeating Sascha Brauninger...

Thomas is one of the best providers of videos, and is always glad to share his strategies with people. Thomas has provided many more of the fastest available live videos than anyone else.
After this major event, Thomas kept improving and constantly defended his favorite WRs, such as the DKP or the RCI2 ones. Moreover, he never stopped getting better on his worst tracks, to be able to take more and more WRs; this allowed him to become, for a few days, the Mario Kart champion with the best AF, overcoming legends such as Michael Jongerius or Karel van Duijvenboden ! Thomas is currently holding 45 MKDS world records, with an AF barely standing above the 2.00 barrier; however, if he were to improve his worst times, like the Rainbow Road ones (where he stands out of top 20 !), there is no doubt he could get much closer to an 1.00 AF score.
In addition to his TB1 personality, he also has an alter ego known as TB2, who is supposedly even more skilled than TB1. There are rumors of a TB3 and TB4 who have godlike MKDS skills and are impossible to beat online, but this hasn't been confirmed yet since no one has ever met either of them, except from the RFS Wi-Fi GOD Casey B (Brett Case) who is rumored to be better than TB1. According to the rumor, you have to beat TB2 in a match first before being allowed to meet TB3. It's still a big mystery what all these TBs stand for. He claims they're his inititials but really we know better than that. They're probably just different isotopes of terbium.
Thomas is also one of the best providers of videos, and is always glad to share his strategies with people. His youtube account allows players from anywhere in the world to look at his videos and improve, as they watch them.
But Time Trial is not the only way to play Mario Kart DS; Thomas also invested himself into wifi alot, doing his best to meet and face the fastest racers from all around the world. Just for TT, after a period when he mainly used to race other French-speaking players, ending up with a 20races victory over the French legend Raphael Segas, he started his huge wifi improvement, reaching first the level of a very good international player back in middle 2006 (and competing with players such as Lars Stelzig or Moonside, standing close to the bests of their time), before suddenly rising his level again in an incredible fashion and taking the spot of wifi #1 from the famous Italian racer Lee Boon, after an epic 20races won 15-13 after two extra GPs. This major December 2006 event is what made Thomas become the true wifi champion, and then, he always kept playing and facing any opponent that would challenge him.
Sun wolsi, BDash, Mercury, Doco, plus all the other Japanese, American or European racers; he faced them all, and managed to win it all the time, until some random Japanese player called "NTTWestJPN" came, back in August 2007. Thomas then finally found the opposition he was looking for, and was defeated by NTT. Instead of giving up, he then did his best to improve even more to reconquer his title, and in April 2008, he finally had the chance he had been looking for : he faced NTTWestJPN again, and this time, he won 6-5 and even recorded some of the GPs, that can be found on his Youtube account (Daily wifi matches, parts 27 to 29). There is no doubt this hard fight is another crucial event that made Thomas become even stronger.
