It's alright I didn't know when to start driving on music park.
Edit: that bob-omb was really close

Sorry, I didn't say anything because I figured you'd go. That's why I braked after you didn't get the head start.

Not sure what happened after the gliding section on the 1st lap.
Well, at least there's a small chance I won't get last now.
Drove into the wall, then your shell. Doesn't matter, wouldn't have won anyway.

On my end you stopped then got hit in front of me, you weren't in back of me.
Oh, strange. Doesn't matter much though
Edit: Good place for me to stop. Thanks for all the races Hypno. GGs all.

I know sometimes with luck, one player can get quite far ahead, but sometimes when I see someone like Naraj or darkrai half a lap ahead I really have to wonder if there's a cheat/broken setup I don't know about

Hypno beat me easily like 10😁times in a row, so I know how that goes
I don't think my setup is that great, but I don't really experiment at all. Not doing anything special I can think of.HypnoDarkrai

I'm using an indrift bike to cut corners more easily.I know sometimes with luck, one player can get quite far ahead, but sometimes when I see someone like Naraj or darkrai half a lap ahead I really have to wonder if there's a cheat/broken setup I don't know about
Here's my setup:
Comet
Slick
Peach Parasoul
I'm getting 2.75 Speed and 4 Acceleration

And here I was worried about 4.25 speed being low.

A number of things can play into that. Being getting a solid lead gives you an advantage because the only real threats are triple red shells from second, and blue shells. Obviously, sheer driving skill comes into play as well.
A very good player will know good lines to take to help build their lead.
And setups also help, but they aren't going to make or break a big lead. The main thing is to have something that works for you.

Off to a wonderful start. So many single mushrooms (and missed item boxes...).
Also went from 7th to 9th when it ended, dat lag.

Later. You just missed my embarrassing loss on Bowser's Castle where I went from a huge lead to almost last entirely due to my own mistake (drifted the wrong way)
I'm the only non-Japanese player left in the room, everyone else quit. Then I was the only one to not pick random. I feel awkward.

Cloudtop shortcut + ink is not a good combo. Wonder if I would have won if I hadn't tried.
Beat a guy who just joined with 9999 VR, woo! Then he left
Comm error so I'm done I guess. Fun room, got my VR up some more, over 4100 now.

You have to beat all the staff ghosts in time trials races.
That's for the Gold Tires
Sorry Curry, you gotta do Mirror Mode too. You don't have to 3-star them but hey, might as well lol.

Mirror mode is easy since the AI is not as hard as 150cc.

In past entries I generally mained the middle weights like Daisy and before that Peach or Yoshi, but racing against GAF, once I tried the slightly heavier and faster characters like Rosalina and Waluigi, I found myself placing better and I've mained them every since.
I use Jet Bike (I too prefer the tighter handling)
Azure Roller
Cloud glider
Gives me something like 4.25 Speed and 3.75 Acceleration.

BioShock Infinite is like playing some homeless guy's vivid imagination
I still can't believe how good this game looks sometimes. Everyone who walks by the TV in the living room is immediately grabbed by the game's visuals. It's so colorful and vibrant and fluid.

Well I knew it was you of course but I'm not blowing your cover anymore
And why would the game give me a blue in 3rd? I didn't even want it!
