Once again, your help is greatly appreciated. :)

You should make a walkthrough/FAQ instead and post it in TMK.

I think Wario and DK are the same weight.

Nah. Impossible, the only reason Bowser and R.O.B. are heaviest is that the producer designing the characters' weights thought the sideways 8 on Wario's scale was a symbol meaning "Heavier than gorillas but lighter than giant turtles and or robots" Another one for the errata page.

More info. You know the ITEMS stat effects what items you get right?

It's also a double-edge sword. The higher the stat, the longer a blooper's ink and lightning will stay on you.

That's why I like lower item stats-- Higher ones really aren't any help if you're in first place the whole time, since you won't be getting anything but bananas, shells and fake item boxes.

Something useful: If a blue shell's about to hit you, crash into something like a snowman or shell. If you get hit by it at the right time, the blue shell will hit you while you're being hit by the less-painful thing. The blue shell won't hurt you. Get it?

Yeah, I figured that out when I was racing bobman37. I shot a blue shell, and he purposely ran into a banana.

Oh, and I found out how to get a really good drift a second ago. ALWAYS be drifting, except if you're going on a strait road and you boost side-to-side. For example: If you are going on a slight turn, just hold drift and don't keep trying to get as many boosts as you can. When you get out of the turn, keep drifting until you're right next to a wall/offroad/edge. I don't know why it works, but it works good. I'm ancious to try it out on a fellow TMKer. ;)

I'm afraid of releasing this technique, but it's called snaking.

BP · « **Reply #22 on:** January 06, 2006, 05:19:37 PM »

I don't really understand snaking and I can't do it.

Khold · « **Reply #23 on:** January 06, 2006, 05:21:26 PM »

You mean boosting side-to-side is snaking, right?

Ultima Shadow · « **Reply #24 on:** January 06, 2006, 05:22:16 PM »

I think so, but it's really hard to do sometimes. I'm trying it against the Figure-8 Circuit Ghost.
