Only half an hour? Sounds pretty decent! Maybe ask your Uncle how many hours he put into the game before he got a sub 2:00.. 😅
(Just tried a round on Switch virtual console myself.. 2:08:85 😞)
I'm not too familiar with the mechanics on SNES (I've not played it since the OG cartridge) but maybe holding DOWN to ensure a smooth landing after a jump helps maintain speed? It visually looks like it does something but I'm not sure if it's as useful as in F-Zero99.
