straightaway miniturbo

I use this technique a lot but, I realized how in videos, the kart turns very little. For instance in the Baby park video during the straighaway, the back of the kart rotates very little before it gets the blue flame. This seems to lead to more control of the kart. When I try, I seem to drift a bit more than in the video and I'll tend to zig-zag more. I was wondering if there was a special technique that I don't know about to maintain such control. Also is the both L and R button used (I don't mean similtaneously, I mean swicthing back and forth between the two during straightaway minturbos)?

Well i use the R shoulder button while mt'ing , try to move the control from left to right as quick as you can , but not to fast as the computer won't read it , but just try to go back and forth as quickly as you can.

I remember thinking that when I started playing and then saw some vids of rather good times. Sadly the only technique that really works is practice....but it does work Wink

A huge key is to set up for every MT.  If your going perfectly straight down the road before you start your MT, you will drift more.  So if you want to a left-facing MT, start with the cart facing just a hair to the right, and vice versa.  With a little practice, it'll come very quickly.  Peach Beach is an excellent course to practice on.

Ya, I was gonna delete that last post too... but I guess I'll use it as chance to address the issue.

Stephen, please stop posting to every topic especially if all you have to say is "me too" or "hmmm..." or "interesting." For one it just clutters up the board and makes finding relevant information harder for everyone. Secondly, for every post on this board there is some amount of information being stored on our server. The more useless posts there are the less room there is for relevant, insightful posts and the harder it is to backup and maintain the data that's being stored on the server.

I don't mind that you post... this is a messageboard afterall... but if you do post please plan on having something to say and don't just try to run up your post count. Thanks.
