Fire Hopping GAF. Yay or nay?

Probably beating a dead horse by now but from where im sitting the majority in global/regional don't even use it.

Plus....

I have the worst damn luck in GAF tourney. I mean seriously am I the only person that consistently flies around the second to last corner in 2nd and manages to finish 10th? :(

I don't use it in GAF. Feels wrong. Regional/WW though? All is fair.

So Mirror Cups aren't as confusing as I feared. Two and three starred the three first mirror cups on first go.

Listening to Papercut's sound advice about opting for acceleration, so I'm driving Daisy, Mr. Scooter, Button Wheels and Standard Parachute. Gives me 5 acceleration and handling which is extremely fun to drive with too. Dat 2 speed though, but it's not as much of a problem with AI drivers as I thought it would be

Wonder how it would work online :p

Anyone know how to get that speed boost where a burst of air surrounds your kart during a race?

That's a Draft. It happens whenever you hang behind someone for around... A second and a half or two. It always happens at the worst time though.

fired zero bullets in the orphanage.
Dolphin Shoals is always a complete clusterfuck.

But GGs everyone! Almost 5am here so I'm gonna stop. Except Xtortion. And Albo's Bowser who kept pushing me.

Yup, it's almost always a guranteed fall off, unless there's a long straight passage ahead

Doesn't help that much tbh especially not in multiplayer.

What is it?

You're not. It happend to me several times yesterday evening. E.g. on the beach track, I was a 2nd just 5m from the 1st when leaving the beach and entering the mud area before the finish line, then I received (I think) a red, a star, a green, a plant. I didn't even reached the finish line.
