TIPS AND TRICKS

There are some straights ripe for tethering, mainly in the first half of the track. Keep your eyes on the racers ahead.

If you are using a heavyweight, always remember you have brakedrifting and null drifting. You'll need it for the slalom halfway through if you don't want to run into the offroad, especially in Gear 3.

For frontrunners, if you can eye a line for you to take the Land Mine capsule that's on the left of the first halfpipe, it could be useful to keep your opponents at bay.

The Gust Planet swings at the end of the walled room are sitting next to a sneaker panel at the center. If you can see that someone else will take the pulleys, then take the panel. If you are the closest though, then don't miss the chance to take those for a big boost of speed.

If you have a boost or power item handy before you get to the multi-slalom, take the chance to shortcut through the tripwire at the first turn of it and skip two of those turns.

Are you a heavyweight? Do not dare to miss the chance to charge a blue or rainbow drift on the final spiral. Lightweights are also welcome...as long as you have enough rings. Sorry Tails, I can't give credit.
