i think the extra weight allowed you to get better traction on the rear wheels, giving you an unfair advantage :lol:

those karts are pure drift monsters, theres not a single corner you can do full throttle, and if you get off the ideal line on the straight they spin up in a straight line :lol:
they also had huge backfires when throttling off at the end of the straight, its sounded like a rally car, was freaken cool.

there was many corners I exited with full opposite lock ,and they have just enough power to carry wheelspin right through to the next corner without ever getting grip. it was just too tempting to give it a big flick as you come round past the spectators. this may have been a contributing factor to my rather high crash tally :lol:

hehehe extra certainly not an advantage, i got out dragged down the straights a few times!
pretty sure the key to our success was we were the only team not to end up in the barriers. but, man was i close a few times! :lol:

If this is a picture of you, it is hilariously fitting. If not, it proves your point regardless :p
