Mario Kart Wii - Sep 30 08 A

"A million dollars to the driver who takes out Racer." Those are the words, in the Speed Racer movie, spoken by Royalton that turned everyone against Speed in the 91st Grand Prix. That's how it feels like to me sometimes too. (One thing's for sure, don't watch the movie if you're going to be playing MKW later that day.)

These are three requests. I was planning to record Koopa Cape for the second one, but it went over the time limit, so I chose Ghost Valley 2 instead. I'll take requests for characters and vehicles, but please, don't request tracks, as they take way too long to get; and don't request a control scheme, as I intend to play this game 100% Wii Wheel.

Race #1
Dry Dry Ruins
I was requested for Mario in the Classic Dragster, so here you go. Things started out rough in the beginning, but apparently, even two Blue Shells couldn't faze me. As for that Fake Item Box, I thought I could get someone for sure with that, but it looks like the drivers here are too wily. Or some just drove through the sand.

Race #2
SNES Ghost Valley 2
I was requested to use Birdo in the Dolphin Dasher, and this time, I decided to play on Manual because I haven't gotten enough Manual training. On the second lap, I didn't realize I was still in a wheelie and fell off the course like that. I probably would've done well if I hadn't made that huge mistake.

Race #3
Rainbow Road
This request was for King Boo in the Honeycoupe. No, there were no Rainbow Road spammers. Oddly, I don't really seem to run into Rainbow Road spammers, despite what a lot of people tell me or sometimes ask me. Someone just chose Rainbow Road for this one. I had a chase with "Ronny," a guy whose VR was slightly ahead of mine. What sealed the deal, however, was that he fell off the course at the beginning of the final lap, and he couldn't keep up after that.

@Overhazard How do I unlock Birdo?

[Overhazard]

@shadowizcool You'll need to play Time Trials on 16 different courses.

[Tsaunders1307]

How do you use manual handling?

[Overhazard]

You have to drift during turns. It's more difficult to maneuver, but you can do hops and Mini-Turbos only in Manual.

[Tsaunders1307]

@Overhazard

Do you use b for the turbos? Like how does taht work?

[Overhazard]

With the Wii Wheel, yes, I use B to drift. I hold it down as I turn. It's hard to explain; you'll understand it better playing by yourself until you get the basics down.

[Tsaunders1307]

So, you can only use the turbos when you turn? Thanks for in thei nfo man

[Misterladywife]

may be you are right, but i dont like it^^

[Overhazard]

There are some pros who use Automatic though.

Take the leader of the Noddingdog clan, D007, for instance. He was one of the first people in the game to achieve a 9999 VR (about 5 days after the game came out) and is nearly unbeatable. Yet he specializes in Automatic drifting.

[Misterladywife]

automatic is for guys dont know how to drive like pros.
