    Any track with long water sections you can run on the edge of the track, just out of the water and not lose speed

      Gotta be careful not to catch the wall though, else you bounce off and lose a blue balloon, but definitely helps if you avoid the wall 🙂

      That's how I felt too by the time I got to the Alexander race. I just kept going 'why does everything ALWAYS have to be pushed to the point of frustration to where you don't even care when you finally succeed?' Got SO sick of collisions. I am sure my neighbours heard me doing that race. I was having a fun chill day of chocobo racing and then it became something that took my entire day, wore my thumbs smooth and I still have Bahamut to conquer. They just don't know when to quit.

      Nothing else really bothered me mini-game wise as far as difficulty goes and the fights that are hard, I enjoy figuring out ways to beat them, so the rest isn't too bad. I think it's the controls that bother me? Like some of them are just uncomfortable to play and some options to modify what you use would be nice. It's a single player game so not a big deal if it makes it easier for you by say, letting us use the face buttons instead of the triggers for some of the games.

      Hey Kevin, I haven't tried it without the helm but I honestly think the strat would still work without.

    It's funny I would get mad mainly at the cactaur gates... I'm normally good at knowing when to go through... the issue with this damn race is the cactaur gates appear after an incline you have to drift on so you can't initially see how soon they opened or closed so you gotta guess. Really dumb design lol glad that chocojump completely eliminated the need to get a read on the doors. Thanks for the tip dude. I changed the gear up a bit but yea... master drifter to increase speed after a drift with all the drifting on the stage, I felt this race has so many annoying turns and I had no problem building ability energy so I just added cornering from the helm, then just put hyperion armor to make me faster in the last lap.
