2 more races uploaded that were done in the previous session. As usual I'm using my normal combination of Bowser & the Shooting Star bike.
I've been using Bowser ever since Super Mario Kart came out in 1992. At the time I just kind of thought it was cool to be the bad guy, but when I began playing Mario Kart 64 in 1996, I began to get used to the heavies as a rule, alternating between Wario and Bowser. I just preferred to sacrifice acceleration for overall top speed and the ability to stand my ground in a cluster of karts. I continued this through Double Dash and MKDS.
When they introduced bikes in Mario Kart Wii, I gravitated towards them instead of the karts. With unique statistics for each kart and bike, each one had a different feel, and character bonuses help to augment each vehicle's performance. The Shooting Star has high ratings for drift & mini-turbo, and Bowser's small drift bonus helps me maximize that ability. Plus, his large weight bonus makes for greater stability on the course, as opposed to the rest of the heavies.
Bowser's character bonuses: +1 Speed +2 Weight +1 Drift (source: http://nerdyandlovingit.wordpress.com/2008/05/03/mario-kart-wii-character-stats/)

@NiGhTmArEdRaGoN420 I wish I did. This was actually done with my wife's digital camera, before I started using the computer hardware & software that I use now.
