To be exact, you hit the same button you use to drift, just as you hit a ramp to do a trick and when you land you get a speedboost. On your drift you don't have to waggle anymore just drift around a corner long enough and you'll get a double boost, just wait till the sparks change colour then release.

At the start line wait till you ACTUALLY SEE the second traffic light come on and hold down the accelerator from then till when the race actually starts and you will get a boost.

Some fun games there GG. I actually placed ahead of you in one race thanks to the Pirahna Plant power-up I got near the end. Nyaa

Man, online is tough.

I haven't actually played these new tracks at all. The Chinese Dragon one was unpossible for my bike considering its speed. And because we played the excitebike level before I kept thinking the dark circles on the Cheese level were traps.

Like I said elsewhere yesterday, I probably won't make it tonight, but I'm not ruling it out just yet.

I added you just now.  It's a good thing you told me.  Why doesn't the U notify me about friend requests?  I assumed you were on my list already.

I went online and didn't find anyone so I thought I got the times wrong and was an hour early so I just waited on the online screen for someone to start a room.  Have I missed you guys?
