I fact, I tried joining you and Leo several times and was finally allowed to join Leo.

Online racing is pure bliss, but Nintendo's online set-up is broken.  Two whole generations of online and no messaging, no notifications, no invites?

Wow...remind me to never use the bikes again until I can learn to control them better.  Got to play with Travo(even though I had to chase him from one lobby to another) Leo, and Robio was in one of my games I think.  I did as well as I thought I would...which was terrible.

yeah, Mario Kart 8 seems to control a lot tighter then its Wii predecessor.  I needed a couple of races to adjust as well.

I'd love to race online with some of you, but busy times.  I might sneak some game time in on saturdaynoon though.

Good games Travo!  The one match I didn't even realize you were in until you passed me.  I've learned not to let you too far in front or else I'll never catch you.

I had to leave a couple of times. I have a son who makes every excuse in the book on why he needs to get out of bed.

We were pretty evenly matched though it was difficult to catch you sometimes.

That he was.  I swear he had it in for me...although he probably felt the same way about me.

And yeah, I've found a cart set up that I'm quite comfortable with.  If I can get a clean jump from the start, I can be pretty tricky to catch.

I think I'm gonna play around with a few more carts one day, though I love the jet bike.

I see you're afraid of racing me.  You hide away in regional races where I can't reach you.

When should we have our first Tournament?

I say give at least a week or two for everyone to practice up, then go for it. Who's in?

To be honest, I know you can set up Tournies, I just don't know HOW yet. Just seeing who's interested first.
