The N64's version is way too long and watered down with walls along side the track. Also, the newer Mario Karts are just way too cartoony for me. I'm old school when it comes to video games. Agree with that. Rainbow road is probably my least favorite course. 64 is still the better of the two, overall.

RidgeRacer Posted January 16, 2018 Report Posted January 16, 2018 This has fucking zero to do with the greatest Nintendo game of all time. More specifically, MarioKart 64. So go get back up on your elephant and move along. Zelda 2 bro. Possibly the greatest game ever. The end boss was your freaking shadow. So bad ass! Quote

That's when I like to have a beer or two and then go back out, but just stay on easy trails and work on good form. Takes you out of your head enough to at least end the day with some confidence restored. Or if you don't drink, maybe just a skis-off break and some loud music. It's like a basketball session: never leave the gym until you've made a net-only jump shot. 1 Quote

I have to keep reminding myself that this is season two for me when I see the PASR crew go screaming down Challenge at eleventy-thousand MPH whooping it up. I want to ski like that when I grow up. I have been drinking longer than any other PASR though, I'm pretty sure. 4 1 Quote

I was going to head over to Pocono Raceway after the crash, and do as many runs as it took to regain my confidence, but then Ski2Live provided me with his location so I joined him. Pocono Raceway is a nice wide trail to make turns on. 1 Quote

Same as with the essay in the Sally's thread it's a sin to even think for a moment that CB may be better in some way. For if one does, the light will dim, and the elephants will fall. Jesus, dude. You're like former Ukrainian pole-vaulter great Sergey Bubka. Quote
