I hadn't played a MK game in like 5 years and it took me a while to figure out that the meta for the game is to max out handling and accell as much as possible. Top speed doesn't really matter since you'll wanna be boosting around every single corner anyway. Once I swapped to a handling loadout (baby luigi / pipe motorcycle / rollers) it got much easier.

Does top speed not affect your boosting/max coin speed? I usually go full handle/top speed with a Rosalina motorcycle

I have no idea I just know I used Luigi/F1-Racer/Slicks and I was treading water and then when I switched to tiny loadout I was doing much better.

The Mario kart 8 staff ghosts are really hit or miss. I had a tough time in dry dry desert but that's mostly because I'm a "top speed" purist which means my handling is rear end

That's what it is just like the Wii u version of 3u. I'd still rather play it on Switch than 3ds.
