Tried to give this game another chance after 1-2 years idk, and... sorry, this game fucking blows.
I can really appreciate the map design and the add-ons and I can tell a lot of passion went into this project, but unfortunately that means diddly-squat when the game feels so unsatisfying to play. No matter what racer I pick or what stage I play on, the controls are insufferably slippery and there is no weight whatsoever to the kart. Nearly every time I tried to drift to turn a corner and get a mini-turbo, it wasn't without crashing into a wall or falling off the track because either the kart weighs as much as a FEATHER or the track feels like I'm driving on oil. Coupled up with the pitiful amount of single-player modes (all you get is Time Trial), it means there's absolutely no reason to play this game especially when you're alone; mainly when there's tons of other racing games that actually control better and have more gameplay variety and replay value.
