Bet you thought I forgot about this post lol.
Anywhos, I'm sure you'll be able to get used to how it controls with time! Also, raw speed is not everything! They made a point in the Direct how Bikes can drift better, hence they'll finish faster than Karts on courses with lot's of turns! Looking at the game's tracks, all of them have turns, but not all have many straight-aways. I mean you can literally drift through the entirety of some courses like Sunshine Airport and Music Park, but there's no track you can drive straight through. So it seems like Bikes will actually have the advantage more often than not. However the time difference between the vehicle types in the Direct's test were marginal, so player skill will still be the most important thing, as it should be! <(^_^<)
