Surely I'll add you. ^-^ It'll be nice to have another time trialler in my roster. I don't play online all that often, just so you know (just a few times a week)... I mostly TT. I'm Sofie Wimmer at the PP, btw. %)

Sadly I don't think you'd ever meet wimmi online in MK7, as he doesn't have a 3DS of his own (at least yet). I'll just have to persuade him some more. >;o)
Haha, I honestly don't think I've used the 'Normal' wheels, no... The 'Normals' and the 'Slicks' might be the only two set of wheels I've never used!

Here's a picture which kinda looks like it could be one of my clowns (though I don't own any clowns with red eyes, I think...). -> http://i00.i.aliimg.com/photo/v0/103...Clown_Doll.jpg (LOL; while searching for pictures I said "This one looks pretty!" and wimmi looked at it and went all "Wuaaah!"... We seem to have a differing opinions about clowns ;D)

Aww, the Beanie Babies are adorable. =) I remember buying a rainbow-coloured bear to my sister once, it was hard not to keep it for myself.
Thanks a bundle for the info about the blue shells and how they move around on the track, I had no idea! I just thought they took the tightest lines, as they usually hit me when I'm taking a sharp turn. >,< I'll definitely keep that in mind the next time.

Yeah, I'm sorry about that (my inactivity in the online mode). :x Often I think to myself 'should I go online?', but then it feels like I'm wasting perfectly good 'hand hours'. If this doesn't make sense, I'll tell you that my hands usually get achy and sore the longer I play... and if I play online for ~one hour my hands're usually pretty much 'done' for the day and then I can't TT adequately anymore. D;

Good luck with the tests you'll be having! How did you think the biology one went?

I don't know if you know about this, but I'll tell you anyway (I'd like to help you a lil' with the TT:ing)... If you first hop and then start drifting (steering) as soon as you've touched the ground again you'll be saving some time. You lose some time whenever you're steering in the air. Did you know this?

Heey! Nice to see you here in my thread, truly. Of course I'll add you, it'd be very nice to race with you again. I believe we raced at least once, but that was back in 2009. x*) I'll add the friend code which is shown in your signature.

Nah, I meant as in him sneaking onto your 3DS to play online.
Never used slicks? I guess you must have unlocked the golden tires really fast then before you started time trialing.

I think Wimmi and I share the same sentiments towards it. xD

Yeah, they were pretty awesome, but I kinda grew out of em
What kind of bear? Like a beanie baby sized one or a teddy sized one? Or perhaps a big bear around a meter tall? o:

I'm not 100% sure on the blue shell paths, but that's how they seem to travel to me in races.

For your problems with your hands and the 3DS, have you tried changing your hands grip on the console? I'd try either a looser or tighter grip, and you can also do things like hold it with less of your hands so that your fingers have to reach farther to use the buttons. I fingers used to hurt a lot when I played too, but I ended up experimenting and finding a hand posture that works for me which happens to be a loose grip with my hands only holding onto about a 5th of the console from both sides.
