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.
I'll be racing online in about an hour and a half if anyone wants to join.
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.

too little, too late I fear. some other time.
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?
Alright then! I officially declare the "No Donkey Kong or Jet Bikes Tournament" open for registration!
We should so name it that. Are we gonna have our own VGPress tournament code to get in?
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?
