The weight of each character has little effect in and of itself, but will affect the types of vehicle available to the player. A character's weight is added to the base weight of the kart or bike. Weight does affect:
- Collisions
If two karts or bikes collide, the heavier will keep going, while the lighter will be knocked away.
- Acceleration
Lighter karts and bikes accelerate faster.
- Speed
Heavier karts and bikes have higher speed.
- Handling
Lighter karts and bikes have better handling.
