Yeah, the game is a little harder than I remember previous ones but it's not impossible. I got gold in 150cc special cup on Wednesday after a few tries and I don't even consider myself great at the game.
I think a lot of people get frustrated at the constant balance for power and a lot of people just have this mentality that you should immediately go for first without any plan and not realizing you get mauled when you're in first place. Personally, I like to stay in 2nd or 3rd as much as possible until the end of the 3rd lap.
