Are you one of those people who pick this track all the time too?? Are you responsible for other people's joy or seething hate?? This poll may show people's true feelings about this mid-galaxy roller coaster ride...

I used to DREAD people picking Rainbow Road because I was so afraid of the steep turns and narrow track, and using a bike, I always get bumped off so easily. But it's better to face your fears and master the track, because it seems like A LOT of people either hate or dread that course too and if you know it well, it's one of the easiest courses to win. That as well as Moonview Highway!

~~I STILL HATE SHERBET'S LAND WITH A FLAMING PASSION, THOUGH.~~

	I feel the same way, especially about Sherbet's Land. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	I don't pick it, but if it comes up I get pretty fiesty. And usually say to the TV, "All right, let's do it, noobs." haha (Reply to this)(Thread)

	I love Rainbow road, and I wish they had added a rainbow circuit where it has all the rainbow roads from the previous games... but, no dice... so, this one rocks! I usually pick The SNES or GC courses... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	girlaxia 2008-05-13 04:39 am UTC (link)
	agreed! a SUPER RAINBOW ROAD CIRCUT! i like to pick the GCN courses the most :) (Reply to this)(Parent)

	You know... that would NOT have been a bad idea... ... are you listening Nintendo?! (Reply to this)(Parent)

	_bradybunch 2008-05-13 12:39 pm UTC (link)
	i agree, but i also wouldnt mind all the mario tracks and bowser track in their own circuts as well ^_^ (Reply to this)(Parent)

	A course is a course, of course of course, unless that course is a talking course? ...no? Okay. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	musikitty 2008-05-13 02:21 pm UTC (link)
	I think you might be on to something. A talking course is one thing Mario Kart doesn't have. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	girlaxia 2008-05-13 04:35 am UTC (link)
	i'm getting better so i don't mind. i love rainbow road from the gamecube. so i kinda wish they had maybe all the rainbow roads! haha that would be INSANE! (Reply to this)

	rioneru 2008-05-13 05:05 am UTC (link)
	I used to be one of those people who would seethe or cuss at the screen, but now I welcome it as well as any other course. For one, it often seperates the skilled from the not and its a nail-biter. Can never be too careful! I just pick Random for courses. I found that the ones I avoid a lot are the ones I tend not to do so well on. (Reply to this)

	kennyg16d 2008-05-13 05:33 am UTC (link)
	i always pick rainbow road. because it's challenging, and i know it pisses other people off and i keep picking it till it gets selected :) (Reply to this)

	teefers 2008-05-13 06:09 am UTC (link)
	the worst is mirror rainbow road.. -__- (Reply to this)

	labradors 2008-05-13 06:16 am UTC (link)
	I never pick it but I've had to drive it so often I don't mind as much. Actually I probably hate the desert ones more.. My least favorite has got to be the N64 ghosty one. Booooring. And I've gotten the Gardens one a lot and am sick of it. I love sherbert land. :D (Reply to this)

	damage_c0ntr0l 2008-05-13 06:53 am UTC (link)
	i've gotten pretty damn good at rainbow road. but i don't like how your place is determined like a minute into it.. usually i'll end up in like 5th or 6th and then everyone disappears and i finish in 5th or 6th. ps. i just found this community, hi :D (Reply to this)(Thread)

	frostbight 2008-05-13 10:23 pm UTC (link)
	That doesn't sound normal... maybe you're experiencing an good amount of lag? (Reply to this)(Parent)

	the_q_tip 2008-05-13 08:32 am UTC (link)
	i used to hate it but now im quite good =) (Reply to this)

	eyecandyrandy 2008-05-13 08:49 am UTC (link)
	i hate it. seriously, why do people feel the need to choose that one? ooh and wario's gold mine, damn you all! (Reply to this)(Thread)

	dirtntrees 2008-05-13 01:32 pm UTC (link)
	Ooooh! The gold mine! That one is near the top of my list of annoying tracks! (Reply to this)(Parent)

	kittehbear 2008-05-13 09:33 am UTC (link)
	I love rainbow road and have to at least pick it once when I'm playing. I don't get the people that pick the same track over and over again..Like the last night two dudes kept picking Koopa Cape (which I used to call koopa cave ^^;) & they ended up being selected every time!! >n< (Reply to this)

	deathangelsai 2008-05-13 10:50 am UTC (link)
	When I end up in matches with people that pick the SAME TRACK every time....I pick Rainbow Road. And laugh. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	xilaii 2008-05-13 01:37 pm UTC (link)
	haha, I do that too!!. XD. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	rougebaisers 2008-05-13 11:06 am UTC (link)
	what i hate more is EVERYONE choosing coconut mall! (Reply to this)(Thread)

	bitchopotamus 2008-05-13 05:53 pm UTC (link)
	I loooooove Coconut Mall. Something about the courtyard area reminds me of the original Dawn of the Dead. I wish there could be use created rooms like old PC games had. Dawn of the Dead Kart Wii would rock. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	rougebaisers 2008-05-13 11:53 pm UTC (link)
	i liked it too, until i started playing online and it seems to be every second race! (Reply to this)(Parent)

	minionofspot 2008-05-13 11:10 am UTC (link)
	I don't see it picked all that much, but it's one of my favorite levels :D (Reply to this)

	_bradybunch 2008-05-13 12:34 pm UTC (link)
	its not that i dont like it, im just sick of racing this track 5 times a night online. PLEASE PICK SOMETHING ELSE FOR ONCE (Reply to this)

Good poll! I've been wondering this myself as I quite like it and am quite confident racing on it. My first ever 2nd place was on this track and I was playing against players with 8000/9000+ points which got me thinking. I find the wheel great for this track. I think you really have to play it a lot and know how to handle certain parts of it. You get used to it.

It's Wario's Gold mine I'm not as keen on. I hated DK Snowboarding one at first but have got used to that now.

It's not so much the tracks but big bullies who pick bowser and DK on big bikes or karts that feel the need to ram into me all the time that annoy me...GRRRRRR

	i always get angry when it's picked. people always bump me off the track. ): but it's okay, because everyone gets bumped off, and you end up only falling a place or two behind. >D (Reply to this)

	valdraya 2008-05-13 03:09 pm UTC (link)
	I am one of those people that often pick rainbow road mwaha. I use automatic so it's easier, and after a bit of practice I almost never fall off now. :D A few that I DO NOT like include N64 sherbet land, N64 bowser's castle and SNES mario circuit.. ergh, especially the latter :( (Reply to this)

	thsk 2008-05-13 05:44 pm UTC (link)
	i hate rainbow road :( i fell off it like, 7-8 times when i played mario kart double dash. this one wasn't too bad actually, but i just KNOW if it's picked to play online matches, i'll be bumped off the track constantly. (Reply to this)

	tohanry 2008-05-14 01:23 am UTC (link)
	I love me some RR...but of course I am a glutton for punishment (Reply to this)

This is a funny question to me because it's *me* who always choses rainbow road. I chose nothing else. It's cause I always chose it and I'm really good at it so I always get at least 4th place, but usually 2nd or maybe first so my points go up every race XD. No one else ever practices rainbow road so they all suck and fall of when I do only in the beginning when I'm shoved off by someone >_>;.

You know what stage I really hate? Coconut Mall. That stage is hell for me. i don't know why but I ALWAYS place badly in it >__<. I cringe every time it's chosen and am very relieved when its not chosen.

	I'm one of the ones who throws a fit if it's picked x3; I'm so terrible at it! (Reply to this)

	diasporal_waves 2008-05-15 12:19 pm UTC (link)
	I love it, I think people are so fearful of it they go all out and drive badly. I have played it online 3 times; 3rd twice and 1st once all by driving very carefully/like Miss Daisy. I actually like the course though, I prefer RR to boring courses like shy guy island or ones that are too random due to being a fight-fest e.g. Luigi's (which I have never finished higher than 4th!)
