100cc is a lot harder. The AI is a massive pain in the ass in this game, and they removed the Bikes with the sweet turning that were in Mario Kart Wii. Man I'd like to see them again.
Oh, man, you & Shauna need to do a Mario Kart 8 video!
I was going to record my First impressions by playing all the tracks on my first playthrough, but Shauna's PC Locks up if we do and she was writing Ciddies Speeches. I might record us going through all the cups without vocal though.

You're damn right. On the final turn of the fire flower cup I would get hit by a blue shell, and then two red shells. This caused me to be overtaken twice on 50cc and lose out on the triple star score ranking. This happened twice on the same course and I ended up having to do the cups around 3 or 4 times to get it.
