Is it possible to cheat on Mario Kart Wii online?
Sounds like a crap question, but I don't know how to phrase it better. The reason I ask is not that I want to cheat, but I think others are. I know of some of the tricks like getting a boost off the starting line, drifting, drafting another player, and even snaking (although I haven't gotten the hang of that. I am also aware of some of the shortcuts, and take as many as I possibly can.
But, it just seems like some people will take off from the starting line, and just go, I never see them again in the race. If I don't hit the starting line boost properly, every one of the other racers will drive by me, leaving me in last place, never to see some of these people again.
So I wonder if these people are using some kind of online cheat, or if I am really just picking a bad character/kart.
If I am picking back characters and karts what would people recommend as a good fast kart/character combo to get me in the race, rather than at the end?
