Right! I need some advice, from someone that uses the Mach bike, please

What do you do at the figure 8 part on rainbow road?!
I'm just going all over the show. I can't get boosts in properly around the corners. What's the way you go about it?

I just want to know, do you go around it following the figure 8? Left right, right left? Do you keep to one side? I'm just going everywhere and am sick of getting to that part of the track, flying off the edge and having to start all over again

some good advice hey?
Well... try jumping just a little bit to the right hand side of the big massive hole on the first one... make sure your doing a wheelie... go over the bump whilst also doing a trick, you'll have just enough speed to clear the first hole and the second hole due to the boost you get from jumping the first wont be a problem no matter how much of the circle you try to jump... do i make sense?

Go right, then right. Get as close to the figure 8 as possible (without falling off)

You dont need a mushroom to jump iover the figure eight because it is a ramp. But the Mach Monkey Poos is not fast enough to jump it until the second lap if you hit the end of the bobbling ramp.

Once you are skilled enough (not putting you down, going by your own admission) then try to boost over the right side of it.

Also, forget going up the edges to get items, that just slows you down and messes you up.

Capisce?

I've never even bothered to go up the edges, but I did it a minute ago by accident (because I'm going all over the bloody place!!) and jumped the gap between both. Was pretty cool I thought! Haven't pulled it off again though..

I just managed to get through a Rainbow Road time trial without falling off for the first time! lol. But it's only a 2:57 time. And that's just not fast enough

Thanks for the tips guys! Will try them now.

The Mach bike is good for curvy courses but the Nitrocycle is much faster.

Unfortunately I use a Nitrocycle on Rainbow Road and even then I can only get 2:44 either just before or just after the expert time.

The bad news is the nitrocycle is much much much harder to turn with and on Rainbow Road you spend more time restarting than finishing the actual race.

There arent too many places you need to mono on Rainbow Road. Perhaps try a fast car with good handling? Oh and also try auto boost.

I'm only doing a time trial so I can practice with the bike. Rainbow road is a good one because of the many corners and downright craziness of the track. And I can't use auto boost, I just can't, I'm too stubborn. I'll do it manual how I've always done, no matter how much I suck!

I think you're a lot braver than me by using manual and not something I will talk you out of. Just sometimes to get a good time if yr racing expert ghosts and struggling you may want to try auto.

However now understanding what you are doing, good luck with the bike and hope you become better soon.

Oh and as a side note: There is a bike for small characters that can drive over water at the speed it can drive over land. That is how you beat the Silly Beach expert ghost.

Do the right thing and dont fire any items at the other players as you try to lose points.
