Though the amount of modification they did on old tracks can make them feel fresh and new enough for me. New Rainbow Road especially is wondrous.

W-well... I guess since you asked and all... Seika6
RR7 was incredible. That final lap music...
I guess I should really try to get the other Mario Karts, I only have half of them (Super, 64, 7, and 8). Had trouble with the DS controls, though, and isn't the GBA one just a remake of the original?

Yeah, those races were quite fun! If only the charge on my gamepad wasn't running out, I'd have stayed for more. I put up a couple of replays from our sessions, too.

Donkey Kong comes close...
I played for about an hour tonight, but I didn't see anyone on, but I had a lucky streak. I was able to raise my rank from 1300 to about 1680, so it was a nice night. Lots of Rosalinas though, holy cow.

Those are all my favourite courses as well, I love it when you're going down the waterfall in Shy Guy falls.
Another one of my favourites is Cloudtop Cruise. The music's great and the whole atmosphere of the level is really fun to be in.

Don't think you are doing 7 justice with that statement. Though yeah Wuhu Mountain Loop rocked, even if it had a horrible...HORRIBLE glitch.

My item set for it was 3 sets of 3 Mushrooms followed by 2 Golden Mushrooms...on a track with nearly no straights to use em!
Honestly worthless items can't gain places with those.

Yeah I know and I do but I'd still rather something aggressive that affects the person ahead of me.
Mushrooms are best when there's rough terrain so you can take advantage of the lack of friction to make shortcuts. Nothing like that on Rainbow Road, only death.
Also Oh my god Lucy you are AMAZING at this game
On Wario Stadium there it was a constant battle for second then when I got it I was like "Right! Time to see where 1st is" and I glanced at the map and no joke you were so far ahead I almost choked in disbelief!
Please share your wisdom with me!

Because you have low points, you were put into a group of people with similar amounts. So, I suppose they weren't as experienced. Anyway, once I got out of the main group it was smooth sailing.
I've finally reached 3000 points! 3032 to be exact.

There are a few shortcuts you can take near the end where mushroom use is optimal. If you drop between the paths to save a few seconds, you can boost off the previous ledge for a farther landing point, or to overcome the rough patches the landing zones have. Also, you can boost around the last curve instead of using the boost pads, as the smaller distance to the center you create while drifting means you'll get to the end faster and in a better position.

Hmm I hadn't considered that, normally I try my best to land on the inside curb of that flying section as is but I'll bear that in mind as a future tactic thanks.
All the same I prefer red shells for dealing with distant opponents over mushrooms XP

So you're the one who took my star!! Argh, I got frustrated. The amount of times I was getting hit. General Luigi is quickly catching up to me points wise as well.
I'm thinking of using a heavier character. Getting pushed around at the start seems to put me at a disadvantage.
Anyway, I had fun.

Ah it's just so tempting from back in the days of DD where you'd really benefit from it then.
In any case I need to step up my game, massively outclassed there so I think I'll try for some better handling.
I actually went into that race thinking "Man Lucy was miles ahead last time, more speed!" but after the modifications I found I couldn't control my drifts as much as I'd like to (especially on Melody Motorway at the end with General Luigi).
Also Grumble Volcano is my kryptonite.

I have very low speed. I value acceleration over it.
I'm also going to step up my game. I'm going to practice offline trying out heavier characters to see what works for me.
And yeah Grumble Volcano and piranha plant pipe way are my worst stages.

Piranha Pipeway came up so much there...it's just so horribly claustrophobic that I can barely move in any direction.
I'm experimenting with bikes just now since apparently they have the better handling but god drifting feels so weird on them
Also does anyone know what "Grip" affects in game.
