OK, let's assume you're in a real hurry to meet the kitty fairy in rainbow world and, just for curiosity, ignore that this is not the way this game was meant to be played, and you're missing almost all of the good parts...
The 'standard' path through Turtle Island, due to the several predefined sequences (seagull, snake, ray back, horses, rebirth) cannot be done much faster than approx. 7:10 (well, maybe ~7:00, if you're really fast) from start to end of rebirth tunnel (been there, done that - where's my T-shirt? :p ).
A faster 'non-standard' path that mostly depends on personal skills would be to skip turtle island completely, but instead pick the rings from the blue insect, the piano/rings game and (as last) the red ant, which will have only the ant-stampede and rebirth tunnel as predefined sequences (still have to beat the 7:10 this way, due to my lousy score for the blue insect).

I like the idea of this alternative path, but I am intrigued how do you get the ring from the red ant?  And what is this blue insect that you refer to?

Cheers

The blue insect is the one that is buzzing around the cactus and the golden trees at the origin, carrying a golden ring on its back.
The only way to get the ring from the red ant seems to be to make it the seventh ring, so the final rebirth tunnel takes over before you can get punished.

P.S.: just managed an immediate hit on the blue bug, which took me to the kitty fairy in 5:10...and now back to relaxing..
