General Commentary and Game Overview
I will say that this is one of very few MFGG games I have kept on my PC, but it's only for when I have ABSOLUTELY nothing to do. It isn't bad, but it's not great either. However it's definitely deserving of heading into Victory Lane.
 
Pros The gameplay is quite fast, which I would expect from a game called Speed Strife and the character and kart models are almost exactly the same as MKDS, which I love. Also, the item system is more balanced than Mario Kart 7.
 
Cons Sometimes it is required to turn the framerater down to 15, which makes everything look choppy, also the custom controls are a slight pain.
 
Impressions
Gameplay
8 / 10
The gameplay is very good, nothing is that out of order and everything checks out as a Mario Kart game. I am impressed.
 
Graphics
4 / 10
Some levels are very graphics-intensive which mean the framerate must be toned down, which makes everything kind of ugly. But in the simpler tracks, everything is good.
 
Sound
10 / 10
The music was very similar to Mario Kart 8's soundtrack which I adore. No complaints here.
 
Replay
8 / 10
Unlocking all the character and beating all your times in time trials is fun, plus beating every cup in first place takes a while, so the game is not lacking in the replayability.
 
Final Words
7 / 10
This game is great but there are a lot of problems bringing it down. I can overlook them and say that this game deserves the title of best Mario Kart Fangame. Jolly good.
