About CTWW
CTWW (short for Custom Tracks Worldwide) is a feature in CTGP-7 allowing mod users to play custom tracks online.
CTWW is enabled by default and can be accessed by just going online.
To disable CTWW, press Y in the online menu and you will be able to play vanilla races with custom tracks disabled.
Note: The beta test group have been play testing on the CTWW unused region for months prior to the release, without encountering any issues (since the mod does not affect vanilla users). However if any issues arise, developement team will be forced to switch to the used region and find a way to prevent matching with other vanilla players. CTGP-7 will not send data to the unused region until you press the Worldwide button in the online menu with CTWW enabled. All the other features are 100% undetectable as they are client sided.
FAQ

Q. After installing CTGP-7 for the first time, an error screen asks to press the power button and try again.
Make sure you have launched Mario Kart 7 at least once.
