I think my fastest is about the same, but it's possible you've got me beat there
However, Baby Park isn't the best test of skill. It's just an oval. DK Mountain, that's a test of skill.

DK Mountain is fucking awesome.
I'd say Rainbow Road is the best test of handling, and Wario Colosseum is the best test of item use.
