Wow, I didn't realize the camera was so off for the second and third race. My bad. This was mostly just a test video anyway to see if the suggestion given to me about lowering the brightness of my tv would help. It seems that it only succeeded in making things dark. It didn't fix the black line, so I guess we're stuck with it until a suggestion works...but you guys can deal with it right? It's something you can get used to as long as you can see what's going on behind it.

I don't really feel like talking about these races, but I will. No annotations this time though. I think I'll just save them for PBR battles.

Race #1 - GBA Bowser Castle 3
This race was pretty intense, especially around the end of the last lap. Using one of the lightest vehicles in the game on a track surrounded by lava could be pretty daunting. The good thing is, the only time I fell into the lava was because of a well-timed lightning bolt. I was never pushed in. There were a few close calls, like in the first lap when I jumped over a Bullet Bill and in the 2nd when Baby Luigi's adult counter-part pushed me. Luckily, I was at an angle where I could follow the track. You could tell I was paranoid during the last lap. Just look at how many times I looked behind myself! The end of this race was crazy. I'm happy I got a Bob-omb to secure my spot somewhat, and I can say that this is one time where I'm actually HAPPY the Lightning Cloud was included to the game.

Race #2 - Moonview Highway
Here we are again...mirrored. I did a lot better on the mirrored version of Moonview than I did with the regular version last time. It could be because I'm getting back into the game again, so I'm not going to make as many errors as when I first started back with Birdo. This was a pretty straightforward race. I didn't appreciate being pushed into a wall at the beginning and again later on by who seemed to be the same person. This was a good track to test the new settings, and I have to say...it was way too dark. The black line isn't as apparent here, but I'd much rather you be able to see what's going on. I don't want to play the game with it this dark again.

Race #3 - N64 DK's Jungle Parkway
This is one of my personal favorite tracks, and I'm glad this was such a good race for me. Near the end, I was able to break in front of the pack and miss a Lightning strike that hurt everyone else behind me who was effected by it making my lead even longer. Of course I'd check behind me every now and then (it's just how I am), but as long as a Blue Shell didn't hit me I was going to be okay.
