I assume the people at the top of the Nitro leaderboard aren't playing online matches to get those points. There's just no way. It has to be them playing Limit Battle Battle mode or something similar over and over and over again. What they are doing must be so mind-numbingly boring. I'll really laugh if some random(s) pop up at the top of the leaderboard due to cheating(save wizard). This happens to every offline multiplayer save data game with leaderboards on the ps4.
With the 50% Nitro gain bonus, online races only give 15 and all the lobby/loading/waiting down time makes it a far from efficient way to gain Nitro. Now there's non-online play in which any local battle/race/trial etc.... gives 7 Nitro. Using a second controller to play 2 player games by yourself where the 2nd player is idle has to be what they are doing. This way I was able to get 7 nitro every 30 seconds which is around 840ish an hour.
I wonder what the optimal method for farming Nitro is. Which game mode, track and settings?

I imagine the people at the top of the leaderboards have setup the game to farm Nitro without them even needing to be there. Shouldn't be too difficult to rig something up to automatically press buttons and run a very short battle over and over again 24/7.
Can be fixed if they just add conditions for Nitro other than play any mode on any settings and come in any position.

Just loaded up the game to check. You are absolutely correct. All you need to do is have a turbo controller and have it spam X all day for you. It'll be match after match while you actually do nada.
Limit battle, 3 lives, 1 hard ai opponent, with only missiles/aku mask powerups. It'll take your 3 lives in about 30 secs and your controller will infinitely collect the nitro and move on to the next match for you. lol
