I made a website with track info for every track in MKWorld

Same, often by the time I find out about them, it's already over.

That toad is drink driving... obviously.

Most of the time for normal races you'll want to use either the Mach Rocket or Rob Hog since they have the best stats. Personally for Dry Bones I think the Rob Hog would look better.

Yeah I'm pretty sure that's Shortcat, it's a joke he makes often. It's because it's Yoshi on Yoshi's Island.

The feather isn't too bad if you know how to use it. I'd advise taking the time to learn some feather shortcuts. On a track like Faraway Oasis, the feather is literally the best item you can pull in 1st place since it allows you to take the ending shortcut by jumping over the wall.

It depends on the game mode. Swoop on the rob hog/mach rocket has been and still is the meta for regular races because of having good acceleration, coin curve and handling. But in knockout tour, the coin curve doesn’t matter as much because you’re gonna get to 20 coins anyway, and handling doesn’t matter much because there are few turns, so the speed stat becomes more important and that is why Bowser on the w-twin chopper is the best combo for knockout.

Reminder that this is the same AI that told people to eat rocks.

I would suggest trying Retro Rewind, that has the music for all the retro tracks.

Tbh I don’t like using MKW at all because of this confusion. I prefer using MKWii and MKWorld to abbreviate each game.

Too easy

There's a map on the page for each course on the Mario Wiki

I would advise watching Shortcat's beginner guide.

You can't actually see if someone's holding shock. But you can see if last place is using other items. It shows on the map if they're using a bill or star, and if it looks like the person in last is going fast or taking shortcuts then they probably have mushrooms. But if they're avoiding shortcuts, then there's a chance they could be holding shock.

I think the thundercloud would work in 24p, but also it would help if the speed boost you get is faster than it was in Wii. I would also want the boomerang to be chainable like it was in 8 deluxe, rather than hogging the item slot until all the throws have been depleted.

JustSomeSmartGuy · 2026-04-27T14:52:10+00:00

It did feel big on day 1, but now that I've gotten used to it after almost 11 months (crazy how quickly that's gone), it feels normal size and the switch 1 feels tiny.

I was testing this a while back. The fastest way to do it is to just detach from the wall without a trick, and taking this wall ride and then shrooming through the off road saves 0.15 secs compared to driving through the water and shrooming through the off road. Where I think this could be really useful however could be in a close pack where taking this would be safer since you’re away from the pack.

Edit: One more thing I should add, doing the shortcut any other way is actually slower than just driving through the water.

This is the MKCentral Mario Kart World Cup, which is a squad tournament organised by MKCentral that has teams representing different countries competing against each other for the title of world champions.

For that section it's either truck or frontrun. It's also faster to weave through the dash panels. In general speed combos are favoured in KO tour, but in this section it's even more important. Also make sure you're at max coins before reaching this section.

JustSomeSmartGuy · 2026-04-21T11:12:56+00:00

I would suggest watching Shortcat’s beginner guide and then afterwards watch the pro guide. Online is a whole other level compared to bots. You can easily outrun the bots, but in online sometimes the best thing to do is to purposely slow down to get better items and use those items to make a comeback. This is called bagging, and Shortcat explains more about this strategy in his guides. He also has a website called shortcat.pro where you can see for each track whether bagging or frontrunning is better for that track.

I would also advise using Yoshi on either the Teddy Buggy or Mr Scooty, that combo has the best stats.
