Sunday Longplay Challenge - Top Gear (SNES) - Red Car, Manual, No Nitros, Championship

This week on Sunday Longplay, I'm doing another self-imposed challenge to celebrate two milestones: the 10-year anniversary of my most popular series on YouTube, and 1 million views on the first episode of said series! Welcome to a special challenge for Top Gear on SNES! The rules for this challenge are:
1. Use the slow-accelerating, gas-guzzling red car.
2. Use manual transmission. (I used automatic in my last playthrough 10 years ago)
3. Play on Championship difficulty.
4. No Nitro Boosts.
5. Finish 1st place overall in each country. (1st place on every race is impossible because some tracks are just too flat to get any good speed boosts without using a nitro. Rome in particular was a struggle to even finish in the top 5 to qualify for the next race!)

This challenge was actually a lot harder than I would have previously given it credit for. Like I said, some tracks are impossible to get 1st place on without using nitros, and I actually failed to qualify in Rome a couple times. On the other side, it also exemplifies why the Black Forest is my favorite track in the game. 300+ km/h with no nitro required? Yes please!

I wasn't expecting my Top Gear videos to blow up the way they did, but thank you all, especially the South American audience, for making it happen! This is for you! I'm glad this game gets the recognition it deserves down there to make up for its relative obscurity here in the United States.
