online play and random tricks from what i can tell 😬

The bikes make the game fairly different. It's not just a car in the shape of a bike, it has different qualities and abilities.

Has anyone else found that it's much harder to drive with certain items than it used to be?

There are differences within the bikes and cars aswell. The scrambler-style bike handles very differently to the speed bike, especially on the corners.

Victor Von Doom Latverian Diplomat

Yeah. Previously the differences were character and car-based. Now it's just in the selection of vehicles.

I didnt mind being forced to use yoshi before.. but he's just not one of my faves

have you fought a snaker using Yoshi + Egg?

Menetnashté White Guy

anyone else got this?

I'm pretty disappointed that you no longer have control of drift turbos.. but its probably for the best...

I'm thinking that bikes are going to be preferred by pro's since you have control over the straight-a-way turbos

bikes are much better imo. The crotch rockets are the fastest things in the game.

What are some of your fastest times in time trial?

I'm talking about the first Mushroom cup race and the first race in the last retro cup...the one with all the colored blocks and mad corners the whole way...

PS. That Donkey Kong Cannon Volcano race pisses me off.

Yeah, that's the way I play. You get to always have control of the kart with the nunchuck, and you've got your hand free to give the Wii remote a wank when you do a jump. Works pretty well, so I can't imagine playing any other way.

ESB -1138 Sonic Speed

Dang, this game is kind of cheap. I'm getting hit by Blue Koopa Shells more then Red Koopa Shells...I got hit by four in a row on the last lap a few feet from the finish line...and because of that I went down to 9th. Some of the levels (older ones mainly) just seem crowded when you have 12 racers on it.

Still, you gotta love the lines you can draw on that first race on the lightning circuit. Sweet, sweet lines.

What are people's favorite characters and modes of transport?

Currently, I'm into that big monkey with the bandana and sunglasses. Vehicle-wise, I'm liking that red sports car he drives. Dunno the name, got the Japanese version, don't I?

I usually rock toad with bit bike for now.. I didnt unlock much.. so thats really all I can use at this point XD
