Each track exists twice so there's "challenge figure 8" and just "figure 8" so
you could enter the normal "figure 8" now without polluting the competition
results. There are no guarantees how long the times on the leader boards will
stay - they might get reset from time to time if the game was updated. (I don't
know if this will happen but the downloads section does say Beta).

That was how I judged it should be relatively possible to beat by someone here.
