Character choice affects access to special items, while the kart determines weight and performance. That makes selecting a team a real tactical decision rather than a cosmetic choice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\u003c!-- rgm:story --\u003e\u003csection class=\"rgm-v2-story\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRace cups, chase times, or fill the couch\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrand Prix organizes the Mushroom, Flower, Star, and Special Cups across escalating engine classes.
