− | '''Louis-Philippe Sabbagh''' is a Canadian [[Mario Kart]] player from Montreal. He is fluent in English and French. While his name is technically Louis-Philippe, he is usually referred to as just Louis - or even '''LPS''' - by his online friends.

− | | |
− | If you've read [[Jason Whalls]]'s entry, you would already be familiar with many of Louis's exploits. He and Jason have been close online friends for almost a decade, and have played and competed in many games together.

− | During his best years of NTSC-version [[Super Mario Kart]] (2000-01), Louis was a multiple-WR holder and made a strong run to claim the #1 position for several months. Even now, after many years' inactivity, he is still ranked #30.
| |
− | But Louis is also well-known for [[Mario Kart 64]], where he specialised in Shortcuts. He has maintained a high position on the ladder (especially SCs) years after becoming inactive. Among Louis's most memorable [[WR]]s were a WSSC 3'89 (1st-lap strategy) and MRSC 51'54 (Feb 2003). His FSSC 21'72 stood for 3 years, before finally being beaten, in June 2006, by 0.02. Louis is currently ranked #48 in Non-SC, #8 in SC, and 17th/18th in Universal ARR/AF. Louis was also formerly a MK64 staff-member (times updating).

− | Apart from the Mario Kart series, Louis was a heavyweight in [[Diddy Kong Racing]], especially Hovercraft. In the active years of the DKR Time Trials page, Louis, Jason and (their closest mutual friend) [[Kevin Booth]] formed a scary threeso... umm... feared triumverate. They shared many battles together, including ones for [[Twin Galaxies]] brownie points. Some of LPS's records, such as the still-ridiculous 19"74 lap in Pirate Lagoon, were untouchable. Louis was a member of [[N64HS]], too, and has competed in [[Wave Race 64]] and [[Mario Party]], among others.

− | Outside of gaming, Louis attended university in Montreal. But ever since his co-disappearance with Jason into the dark lands of the [[World of Warcraft]], few are yet to his hear of his recent adventures. Nevertheless, he is fondly remembered by many veterans for his strange humour and light-heartedness. To this day, Louis remains the only karter to have graphically ridiculed [[Alex Penev]], drawning several MS-Paint caricatures of Alex (complete with cowboy-hat and pistol, no less) murdering Olga the Cow to host a barbecue. He is also the only player to have shower videos, locked away safely in Kevin Booth's vault for all eternity.
