Matt Ellis

Matt Ellis (aka karterfreak) plays all 6 Mario Kart games, and is also an active member of the forum. His best Mario Kart game is Mario Kart Super Circuit, where he is ranked 6th in the world and holds several world records, including his legendary sub-3 KB1 non-shortcut flap.

Matt has helped out the Mario Kart community in various ways. He did some updating for the MKDS site, updated rivalries for the MKDS site, wrote a few news articles for MKSC, and did some testing in MKSC to determine some stats related to speed and acceleration.

Edit for 2010: Matt hasn't been too active in the community as of late. He spent most of the last year creating a Super Mario Kart ROMhack called Super Mario Kart: Pro Edition, which can be found at http://www.romhacking.net/hacks/610/. Other than that, he is at the current time retired from Mario Kart other than playing Super Mario Kart and Mario Kart 64 online.

Matt plays quite a few other games such as Trackmania, Street Fighter IV, Altitude, and other games, but for the last year he has been focusing on the games Left 4 Dead and Left 4 Dead 2, trying to get into the competitive community for said games.
