"Pesky sporespiller, tryin' to draft me!"

Drive defensively through the inner part of the loop!

Hopefully my first item doesn't decapitate someone and get me disqualified.

[monk12]

By the way, what happens if the pass rolls tie? (Also, if I take a different path from Kirby, that'd mean that I can't be flipped by the star, right?)

Anyway, I'll Powerslide, and hit the dash panels for the extra momentum.

If pass rolls tie, defender wins. Since the different paths don't represent actually different segments, Kirby can still hit you. I suppose if you wanted, you could specifically allow Kirby to pass you, in which case he'd pass you automatically on an attempt and not lose Momentum for doing so.

*resists urge to add Swordchucks as item*

Racer: Zelda
Module: Compensator

Harkinian, Link, and Zelda are all racing. I just wonder what Gannon's up to.

[Taricus]

Hedging bets, and hoping they kill one another.

Possibly building a track of his own as well

[Remalle]

Vaati's gonna race, then halfway through it'll be revealed Ganondorf was behind him all along.

[Scelly9]

Defensive driving!

Since I'm tired of looking at blank emblems:  [Click the emblem for the source of where I jacked the image from]

Spoiler: Kirby, for ExKirby (Thanks FFS!) (click to show/hide)

I have no idea.

Spoiler: Link, for Scelly9 (click to show/hide)

The name of the source game is heavily ironic.

"Smart bomb away!"
Fox centred his sights on his opponent and slammed his hand down on an imaginary fire button before entering a wide swerve around the bend.
>Launch the bob-omb fowards, try to land it in front of the enemy craft in the lead!
>Try to powerslide around the outer part of the loop, if possible.

[Darvi]

Waluigi flips table and throws the bombs out of the window.

[ExKirby]

Drift on the inside. I WILL get this right.

Monk:  Considering after the first three winners get into the Star Cup race, the next three slots are highest two Points and then highest Fame, wouldn't that mean that the Star Cup race will just be all the first and second place finishers?

In the first season yes. After that probably not.

[Toaster]

Er yes, I mean this season.

So here's an idea for Rainbow Road in 6 Segments:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Segment 1-RED
A downhill straight with dash panels and enough item boxes to go around. Spinning out or being rammed requires a +1 Racing Check to stay on the track-failure will result in an automatic fallback.

Segment 2-ORANGE
A good old-fashioned loop de loop. While momentum will keep you on the track, if you end up with 0 Momentum or are flipped off the track, you need to make a Racing Check to avoid falling to an untimely demise-again, failure is an automatic fallback.

Segment 3-YELLOW
A nice wide corner alike the ones in Luigi Circuit. The inside of the bend gives a +1 to Drifting and a pass attempt on a success, but the outside lane has dash panels and item boxes!

Segment 4-GREEN
The road suddenly cuts into a smooth zig-zag pattern. The barriers are up on the outside so you can't fall off, but there's no hope of drifting and you'll need to slow down to at least Momentum 2 to make it. Alternatively, you can try to jump off the bank and clear the section, giving you free pass attempts on all below you, but you need to make a Racing Check and be driving at least at Momentum 4 to clear the gap. Failure will result in a fallback.

Segment 5-BLUE
A nice flat straight which gives +1 to all driving actions sans ramming. There are also one or two item boxes here as well.

Segment 6-PURPLE
The finish is a two-split path. Both ways are exactly the same, but no weapons can hit someone on the other side of the track. The barriers are also down, so spinning out or being rammed needs a +1 Racing check.

[Remalle]

I like it.  It's appropriately difficult, got enough stuff to keep it interesting, and it's got a rainbow colour scheme!

Luigi Circuit- Turn Five

1^st      2^nd      3^rd      4^th      5^th     6^th

Player Action

"Pesky sporespiller, tryin' to draft me!"

Drive defensively through the inner part of the loop!

King Harkinian steadfastly refuses to yield his position, Driving Defensively towards the inner path and it's valuable Item Boxes!

Fire the shell at the King!  Follow him to whichever side of the track he takes.

Crank deploys his Green Shell, dragging it behind him! He lines up a shot on the King and lets fly! [4]+1-1vs[2]+1 DIRECT HIT! The Green Shell catches King Harkinian in the side as he enters the loop, causing him to flip and lose TWO Momentum! Crank bears down on him from behind, following him inside!

"You're going down lower than all the floors in Hyrule, Kingo!"

Fox centred his sights on his opponent and slammed his hand down on an imaginary fire button before entering a wide swerve around the bend.
>Launch the bob-omb fowards, try to land it in front of the enemy craft in the lead!
>Try to powerslide around the outer part of the loop, if possible.

Fox McCloud eyes King Harkinian, waiting for a moment of weakness- when he flips, Fox seizes the opportunity to launch his Bob-omb!

"Smart bomb away!"

[3]vs[4]+1 King Harkinian sees the Bob-omb coming, and veers away as it bounces closer, escaping the blast! Behind him, Crank skids wildly [3]+1 and veers around the blast! Fox, [1]+1 fixated on Harkinian's escape, swerves too late, entering the inferno! He spins out, losing ONE Momentum! Unruffled by the blazing fires, Fox shoots off for the outside path and its Dash Panels!

Defensive driving!

Link prepares to defend himself from the encroaching Kirby, gaining a +1 bonus to avoiding Passes and Attacks!

Anyway, I'll Powerslide, and hit the dash panels for the extra momentum.

[6] Luigi goes into an expert Powerslide, boosting ahead with plus ONE Momentum and a +1 bonus to Pass attempts! His Momentum is higher than Link's, and he moves to pass! [5]+6+1vs[5]+4+1 He blows past Link's defense, claiming Fourth place and losing ONE Momentum! Luigi drives high, heading for the Dash Panels!

Drift on the inside. I WILL get this right.

Kirby slides toward the inside, [2] but can't get anything going with his engines! He putters on toward the Item Boxes, inasmuch as a blazing invulnerable anthropomorphic pink doom ball can be said to "putter".

1^st      2^nd      3^rd      4^th      5^th     6^th

Movement Phase

King Harkinian is desperately trying to recover, Driving Defensively!

Crank bears down on the King, [5]+4vs[1]+2+1 barreling past and claiming First place! He loses ONE Momentum!

Fox McCloud hits the Dash Panel on the outside of the loop, gaining ONE Momentum! He blazes up behind King Harkinian, [3]+5vs[1]+2+1 and effortlessly overtakes him, breezing into Second and losing ONE Momentum! He has an excellent line on Crank, and moves in for the kill! [6]+4vs[6]+3 Feinting towards the inside, Fox quickly pulls outside and races ahead of Crank, taking First Place for the first time and losing ONE Momentum!

Luigi's Powerslide brings him to the Dash Panels, vaulting him forward with ONE Momentum for a blistering total of SEVEN! He parlays this unnatural speed into a headlong dash for the front of the pack, starting with King Harkinian! [1]+7+1vs[3]+2+1 Luigi makes up for a lack of finesse with raw horsepower, and the Poltergust 4000 pulls into Third, losing ONE Momentum! Next up is Crank, still befuddled from Fox's charge- [2]+6+1vs[4]+3 Luigi rumbles right along, taking Second Place, losing ONE Momentum and setting his eyes on Fox McCloud and the lead! [5]+5+1vs[4]+3 Luigi completes the trifecta and Fox loses his brief hold on First Place! Luigi loses ONE Momentum and is in excellent position for the next lap!

Link is Driving Defensively, keeping a closer eye on Kirby behind him than on the reeling King Harkinian ahead!

Kirby, try though he might, cannot close the gap on Link! The Invincibility wears off!

Cleanup Phase

Crank [1]+1 fails to hit the Item boxes!

Harkinian [3]+1 just catches the edge of an Item box, [1]+3 receiving a Blooper!

Link [2]+1 barely misses his intended Item box!

Kirby [1]+1 has tunnel vision, and follows Link around the Item Boxes!

Lap One is completed- Two to go!
