If you are 5th or worse, the items your are getting are worth the time you put in getting them garantued. It seems to me, what item you get is set by the place your drive over the item box, not the time the you can actually use it. That means if I make a jump to get a "?" and you get passed me, I get the more powerfull item, and most likley throw something add you, or get you with a mushroom or something. And in the end, only the place after the 3rd race counts, so maybe if you are in the pack, think about it to make the jump to get a good item. Also I noticed that you nearly never lay down your "protection" if you are first. If you have the second banashelf allready availible, lay down the current one on a good place. It will help you. A lot of people drive into the banashelfs. On the throw somebody off the course part: It seems that there are 2 things important for that: How "heavy" is the bike you are using and how much do you drive in the direction of the driver you want to throw off. It helps if you throw something with while you are drifting, or have a miniboost. If he is drive straight, he will seriosly loose his "line". |
Thanks for the advice, even though it was written a little weird. @TWRoO We would have been both in 1st place if I had won and you came in second. Yes, your red shell decided the race. |
Yes, sorry, I was really tired. I tried to fix the biggest mistakes ;)
In the end though, the best 4 or 5 racers are so damn close if it comes to speed that it does depend a little on luck where you end up. I mean look at yesterday results, the first 4 are nearly the same, but is wild mix where somebody ends up. Also it was damn close if you look at the actuall points.
