| − | ==== Nice! Tell me something about his story plz. ====
| + | He joined the Player's Page in 2005, when he started playing [[Mario Kart DS]]. |
| | + | He played that game a lot. Now he's in the NonPRB Top 20 and doesn't play anymore. |
| | | | |
| − | He started playing Mario Kart when he was 9, playing [[Mario Kart Super Circuit]] and [[Mario Kart Double Dash!!]].

He also played them a lot. |
| | | | |
| − | He has been a mid-level player for much time, even if he got a WR in the first months (Baby Park fast lap; he was the first to sub 8"400). When he decided to spend a lot of his free time on time trialing at the start of 2007, he quickly climbed up the charts, getting in top 10 at the start of 2008. After that strong period, he didn't play as much as before because meanwhile he started to attend a school that takes more than 1 minute each day of homework, but he still managed to get good PRs to keep his position.

He has expressed an interest in joining Super Mario Kart Time Trials in the future, when it will be released on the Virtual Console in Europe; he has played Mario Kart Super Circuit, Mario Kart Double Dash!! and [[Mario Kart Wii]], but he never tried to play them competitively, except for a very few tracks (he managed to hit a Non-Glitch WR on Mario Kart Super Circuit).
