Mario Kart: Double Dash!!/Karts

Mario Kart: Double Dash!! has a total of 21 karts to choose from. They rank in either Light, Medium, or Heavy class and are rated for speed, acceleration, and weight. Below is a guide to the karts and their ranks and ratings. (Please note this article is incomplete but will gradually be finished. Do not create a table for the karts because the guides will be made in both text and picture form. Thanks!)

Heart Coach
The Heart Coach is good to use for tracks with long straightaways and tight curves. It is generally a good kart for staying up with the other racers.

Bloom Coach
The Bloom Coach is similar to the Heart Coach, only it is lighter and slightly faster. It works at top performance on a track with wide roads and curves that aren't too tight. It is nearly average in rating.

Goo-Goo Buggy


The Goo-Goo Buggy is a good kart for wide courses because they give the kart a good driving space. The reason it needs the space is because it is a very light kart and can easily be thrown off of narrow tracks by the heavy weights. Another thing to point out is that it has a very poor speed. The best thing, however, is that it has almost the best acceleration of any karts. To make it faster, have Baby Mario or Baby Luigi as part of the team manning it so their Chain Chomp will send it speeding!

Rattle Buggy


The Rattle Buggy is almost exactly like the Goo-Goo Buggy, only it has a better top speed. However, this makes its acceleration less as fast than the Goo-Goo Buggy. It has a very low weight equal to the Goo-Goo Buggy's, so use it on wide tracks. It also works fantastic with the Chain Chomp!

Piranha Pipes
The Piranha Pipes is a kart that is fantastic for pushing around other racers. It works great on tracks with long, wide turns. The only drawback for speed and weight is its acceleration, which makes it pretty lousy on tracks with many sharp curves. However, a track with many boost pads remedies this.

Boo Pipes
The Boo Pipes is a reverse of the Piranha Pipes kart because it sacrifices speed for acceleration. Unlike the Piranha Pipes, the Boo Pipes is great at holding its own on a track with many curves. Because it has great acceleration, it can easily get back up to speed. It is also the same weight as the Piranha Pipes. The only issue is its low speed. Using it on a long track will help to gain a better lead over the other racers.
