Mario Kart Wii \ What kind of MK Wii racer are you?

Me, I just switched to bikes, and ditched the Wii wheel for the GameCube Controller.

I always seem to have a great start every race, but then something tragic happens and I go almost last and I have to waste a whole lap or two just trying to catch up, eventually I do.

Sometimes I start great and stay in front with a good lead for about 2 and a half laps, but then get hit by a red shell followed by a blue shell, and come in 3rd/2nd.

Sometimes I start really bad, like I start doing wheelies too early while there are others around me and I get bumped and go last, but immediately I grab a Bullet Bill and get back into the race.

So I'm a bit mixed really, but usually I come in 1st or even 2nd on continental races and maybe 3rd or even 4th when I'm in a worldwide race with some late night/TEC racers [sternzie, Huuie, Lynx, KCB, Trixx].

Currently I'm trying to crack 8000VR, but it's hard. I always come in 1st about 3 times in a row, which gets me about 270 points, and then crash and burn on courses like Luigi Circuit and Rainbow Road, and lose about 3 quarters of what I just won.

So what kind of racer are you?

So tell me about what happens to you in races. Do you get very unlucky and lose right in the end? Or do you dominate most of the race? Or do you find yourself always trying to catch up in the last lap?

Or are you kinda mixed like me?

Well not that I've raced in a while, but when I do race I use the wheel. And usually either Mii or Rosalina on the Mach and Bowser Bikes.

I'm not sure, I'll go with "kinda mixed".
Although one thing that usually happens is that I always get pelted with blue shells

I used to crack a fit every time I heard the sound of that damn blue shell, but now I just get on with it, I know that I'll go behind a bit, but that's MK for you.

I play as a medium character(mostly Mii A) with the Bon Bon(bike) or the Royal Racer(kart) and I use the Wii-L to steer.

But have been experimenting with other characters too.

I use the Wii wheel It's more fun that way

I used to race with Yosh 'cause I always have but now that I have unlocked my Mii I like using that (even tho it's large and Yoshi was medium) which I'm slowly getting used to

and always the Standard Kart just 'cause I like it
