3DS:Alternate Exploits/Preparing menuhax67 (kartdlphax)

Required Reading
kartdlphax is an exploit for the game "Mario Kart 7", compatible with System Versions 1.0.0 through 11.16.0 for USA/EUR/JPN region consoles primarily made made by PabloMK7. It was used to launch universal-otherapp in the past, that got patched with the latest version, so this exploit can be used now to prepare the secondary exploitsunSAFE_MODE(you can find this on the main guide) or menuhax67 on 11.16.0-49X.
