My friends and I play a mode called “bumper karts” where everyone has to be on the offroader on 50cc automatic drift. It makes slamming people and getting slipstreams the whole meta and makes for super exciting (if slow) races! I’d love to see you guys try it on flounderfest!

[@yoshilikes24-chesscraft94]

100cc is the lowest for online, and Prowler might be more exciting to see. Other than that, nice idea!
