Characters

Mario

Learn mixed courses.

Peach, Yoshi and Toad

Recover from frequent mistakes.

Wario, Donkey Kong and Bowser

Maintain speed through clean laps.

All eight drivers are available immediately. There is no hidden character unlock ladder.
Weight matters when traffic is crowded. Lighter racers recover well but are easier to displace.
Keep the same driver while learning Extra tracks. The returning courses look like Super Mario Kart, but this game uses its own handling.
Link play has different cartridge limits. Multi-Pak play supports driver selection.

Choose by the problem you face
Problem	Useful approach	Why
Frequent spins	Try a light driver	Recovery becomes more forgiving
Bumped off the line	Try a heavier driver	Weight improves resistance to contact
Unfamiliar course	Keep one medium driver	Creates a consistent baseline
Single-Pak restrictions	Use the assigned Yoshi	Roster selection is limited by this mode
