Being the fastest Guardian on the longest racing line means nothing when everyone else is doing the shortest racing line.

The shortcuts on both maps are my key to clawing up from the back of the pack, or keeping a strong lead. I've seen guys hit the gate right before the Mars shortcut, but I can't hit it consistently so I just skip it. I almost always pull ahead at least one spot there.

The gate before the Venus shortcut is a little easier to hit, especially if you're coming from behind (wider gate), and if you have a side-boost available. Go a little wide-right as you jump down at the Skiff, aim to hit the gate pointed mostly towards the shortcut, and boost left as you go through it; you should be set up to go right up and over the shortcut ramp.
