Blue about 15 feet from the finish line. Hurts.

Feels like they only give out the blue shells at the very end of each race. Bad form.

I'm sorry Tom, I think that green shell to the face the lap earlier brought out a mean streak.

Oh my god, that Bullet Bill. I can only imagine what the look on my face was when I saw that go by. "Whaaaat?"
Hah! It's just the Mario Kart way I suppose.

MY REVENGE! You screwed me over many times so I finally had A SOLE CHANCE TO SCREW YOU OVER!
Not really. Sorry about that! >.<
You also hit me with that green shell right before the finish line, but at least no one passed me there.

I just realized that all the "shortcuts" are traps. I actually dropped two positions going over the bridge :/
Aaaaand blue shell while in 3rd. That's my cue to take a break. Be back later!

I won that race fairly comfortably by just slowly drifting around the inside turns and taking no 'shortcuts' or boosts.

Alright, I'm done, it's been fun.
Ha, yeah, that race, I was just waiting for you to get red shells or something. Never happened and I was able to pull away.
Shoutout to Exentryk though. I've gotten better by learning from several people but he's the one I've learned the most from. We've played together a lot and he uses basically the same setup as I do (same stats, different parts). Still have a long way to go though!
Now other people can win more often.

Good character/part combination is mandatory, you need good speed to keep up with or pass the pack and good acceleration to get moving when you get hit.
And of course, just getting better at the game. The more you play with GAF (or other good lobbies) the better you will get. You'll naturally pick up on what other players do and implement that into your own playing to keep up. You might not notice yourself getting better, but when you go back to the AI even 150cc seems like a complete joke that has to cheat just to keep up.
