Is it me, or the 3 stars rating on the cups are much easier to get now? I eased through all 50cc cups with three stars and did 3 cups on 100cc with 3 stars as well without trying, and I did some pretty shitty laps on 100cc.

Btw, Wario's Galleon = My current favourite track in any MK game

It isn't as easy as Mario Kart DS is it, that game was so easy that I tried to not win races but manged to win them with some ease.

The difficulty of the races is pretty much the same. Whenever you go into higher cc's, luck and skill take a much higher prevalence, but it's the same as on MKDS and Wii. 

But it does seem easier to gain 3 stars. On MKDS, whenever I went below 2nd place, even if I did manage to win the race, I knew I wouldn't get a 3 star rating on that cup, but on MK7, I went below 2nd place a lot on the 100cc cups and still managed to get 3 stars because I won all the races.

Wait until you get to try 150cc out. One Blue Shell in the final lap means 2nd place. And you must get first in all to get three stars in 150cc >_<

I really hope that happens, but Blue Shells aren't that annoying to me (except in that case). What I most hate are the pinpoint Lightning strikes just when you're climbing a hill or close to the edge of the track making you fall down and lose a shitload of time and 6 coins >__>.
