Sonic Rush - Mirage Road 1 (Blaze) in 2:15.79

Time attack of Mirage Road Act 1 in Sonic Rush, with Blaze, in 2:15.79, ran on my new 3DS XL capture card.

Good run overall. Despite half of this being an autoscroller, there are a few surprisingly technical things to execute.

0:09 - Have to hover INTO the ground (not hover then let go) here to maintain broken speed cap from the preceding downhill slopes

0:25 - Surprisingly complciated maneuver here. Forward trick at the perfect height to break speed cap, run up the wall, spin a bit to regain air control (due to the boost pad removing air control unless you spin), full jump left into the wall, then immediately hold right and hover into the rail. Also before the 3 hoops, make sure to NOT hover, or else you lose broken speed cap and the next swing is much slower.

0:58 - This is the biggest room for improvement here. After the vertical spring, Blaze has an extremely tiny window (probably frame perfect) to do a forward trick and break speed cap into the ledge, saving over 1 second before the next enemy chamber. Given how difficult the rest of the stage is, I opted to keep going if I miss this anyways.
