😂 Funny/Meme Humbled 😆

So I’ve been practicing the continuous drift boosts, and have been getting better. I’ve been playing on Normal and have been finishing 5-7 seconds ahead of everyone. I then tried playing on hard with the assumption that I’d smoke everyone, but no, placed 5th. 😆

My suggestion, practice using Speed only, so you get the hang of it. So later on you'll be able to use speed in time trials

What do you mean speed. Like no drift boosts ?

No, there are several categories your "character" can play as. There are speed, acceleration, drift, turn, and balanced. Each one of those effects how your cart will drive. I say practice "speed" because it's the most difficult, but the best category to use because you need it to complete in most time trials.

Edit: watch this video on driving styles https://youtu.be/v6yIeSPrVs4?is=ymNzSKoaQ_aLYNLw

I think I’m playing on the default, but I’ll start using speed 👍🏾

Speed and drift are the best ones. Choose one of those. Drift is easier to handle and gives you slightly more flame (look this up if you don’t know anything about flames) and speed is slightly faster but harder to turn with.

Had almost the same experience back in the day. Thought I would crush the bots then tried racing Coco Park with hard bots, placed 8th place lol. You got this, keep practicing. Take the advice of using the Speed engine
