Mario Kart Wii's Match of SPEED

[@SeaOfPixels]

I honestly think you going Auto for the first GP helped a lot, the tracks that showed up were definitely against Troy's inside drift manual in that GP.

[@Fenriren]

The hydration nation needs to have a minimum VR requirement to join lol

[@liomino]

nmeade's team actually has a higher average vr. nmeade ≈ 8896 troy ≈ 8444

[@rryumi]

9999 on kart minimum

[@WindyDelcarlo]

15:15 I didn't realize you could retain items through a pow by hitting a FIB. Neat

[@samuelitooooo]

Y'know, I forget how much airtime you get when getting hit in MarioKart Wii. That was something that can only happen in this game lol

[@Tocaraca]

Same if you get hit by a shell

[@kogmawmain8872]

@@samuelitooooo I feel like you get even more airtime in MK64 than in Wii.

[@llamus8432]

watching nmeade'ss pov vs troys is insane.... how does nick get hit 10X more each race

[@taursula]

WE ARE SO BACK

[@MikeyLORR]

Spoilers LET'S GOOOO HYDRATION NATION BACK ON TOP!! Super exciting match, honestly how surprised how close it was, I'd expect Jetsetter to fall behind quick but everyone held it together really well. Can't wait to see what's next, GGs!

[@rmzing]

At last, one that isn't over by race 9! What a battle this was.

[@j-yoshi64_justcallmej]

guys I'm telling you: outside drift + automatic drift + Wii Wheel = more manageable outside drift. Not as much sideways momentum, and you can even look back while holding an item! Oh right, my MarioWiki research. Okay, so the Sprinter and Jetsetter are medium and large counterparts to each other (and to the Blue Falcon in the small karts). They boast excellent base top speed (which does not include wheelies), with the Sprinter's being the highest of all medium vehicles and the Jetsetter's being highest of all vehicles in the game. The Jetsetter also has weight going for it as a large kart, but it is actually the lightest large kart in the game. Ironic considering the Sprinter is the second heaviest medium kart. The Sprinter does have some average stats (falling between 35 and 49/80), being weight and surprisingly drift (although the drift is low average at 37/80). The Jetsetter has no average stats. All these two karts' other stats beside speed and weight fall below 35, being poor poor poor. The Sprinter has the worst handling, offroad, and miniturbo of all medium vehicles. The Jetsetter has the worst handling, offroad, and miniturbo out of all vehicles in the game. These karts' acceleration are only _slightly_ better than the Wild Wing and Flame Flyer, respectively, related to them being slightly lighter. But it's still the second worst accel out of the karts of their respective weight classes, with the Jetsetter being the second worst of all vehicles in the whole game. All in all, unless you're on a straightaway with no sharp turns, and no items or obstacles hitting you, both these karts are just awful and belong BELOW the F tier. I'd feel safer on a Quacker.

[@kaioh16]

The Sprinter and Jetsetter are actually considered to be fairly decent by kart players, they're probably the best karts after Flame Flyer, Wild Wing and Minibeast (edit: Honeycoupe is better too probably), but they're really hard to handle. The Jetsetter is definitely better on automatic but the sprinter can be played on manual outside drift as well. If these karts had a bit more speed and a lilttle more handling/drift, they would actually be really good online, since they go fast very consistently, where other karts only go fast in a miniturbo, and bikes only go fast in a wheelie

FINALLY W FOR HYDRATION NATION

[@iq-un9id]

This was so much fun, also my first ever flounder fest, very poor first 2 gp's, but glad I was able to figure it out gp 3, hope to be in more in the future.

[@BlueLeopard_MKWii]

Idea for future flouderfest, try other custom track distributions and their funny modes, like MarioKartWiiGalaxy's 99,999cc for all custom tracks mode or hide and seek or something
