A sign of the enduring appeal of the Mario Kart franchise is that world records continue to be set in every game in the series. However, new world records in Super Mario Kart – which is approaching its quarter-century landmark – are few and far between these days; precious few people now own and use Super Nintendo Entertainment System consoles. But the old legends are still at it: Dutchman "KVD", aka Karel van Duijvenboden, who sits second on the all-time list of the number of Mario Kart world records held, set a new benchmark time of 17.08 seconds on the "Bowser Castle 3" track, playing the NTSC version of Super Mario Kart, on 4 March 2016. That record still stood on 11 April 2016, making it the most recent world record set on the game.
