That was fun, didn't have a lot of time though. I'll try to make it on here and there.

You can also count on me to drive into the wall on courses I spent a couple hours practicing to beat the ghost on. :lol:

I actually managed to give you some competition a couple times though.

Ha! That was me last night. Racing drunk would've been prettier.

I haven't even gone after the staff ghosts yet. I'll probably chip away at a few over the weekend.

Are you pretty sold on the bike for your main? The bikes almost control too good for me, if that makes sense. Your Rosalina is solid. 8)

That's the setup I've been using for Time Trials and all. I did the 50/100cc GPs on all the different characters using karts/ATVs, but 150cc I didn't seem to be able to keep up without using a fast/heavy character. I experimented with a few setups, but that's what I seemed to do best with at the time (and I wanted to use Rosalina anyway).

My impression is that bikes have a tendency to oversteer, where karts understeer. Pros and cons either way, and there's just a different timing to it or line to race. At this point though, I'm just used to the bike.

s1mple taught me how to play last night, so things will be much better going forward. I'm Emlynn btw.

I think i'll have time tonight around 7p EST and will bring my daughter to ensure i'm not last each round.
