Additionally, activating an item to discard them should also form part of your strategy and the best time to do this is when you are about to touch an item box. Not only should you make it a point to utilize the items you have at the best possible sectors and times on the track, but you should also make it a point as much as possible that both item slots are loaded. Knowing what each item can do and identifying the perfect timing of its activation can spell the difference between winning or losing the race. While this item seems as basic as it comes, maximizing its effects can be attributed to timing. The Nitrous gives you a quick speed boost and can certainly help catch up positions when you are behind or even widen the gap between you and your opponents if you are ahead. Likewise knowing what an item does is just half of what you need to know as strategizing on their best usage as well as potential dangers they can bring to you and your teammates.

Although some can be easily understood as soon as you use them, some do require a little explanation to understand their effects. Save for the Nitrous, which is demonstrated as part of the introductory tutorial, you will not be given any proper introduction to the plethora of items you can pick up on the tracks. There is even a Reset button for when you want to revert to the default settings. You can always opt to make changes until you have the best settings for you.

What you should normally do after making changes is to give it a practice run in either the Item Mode or Speed Mode. You can revisit the settings several times in the course of your adventure. In any case, and even with similar performances across all characters and karts, KartRider: Drift still has more than enough customization options to ensure that any 2 players will not likely have the same kart and character after customization. As far as customizations go, there are liveries and emoticons to unlock and customize for your character and kart as well.

There are plenty of characters and character variants as well as karts to collect and unlock but each one is purely cosmetic. While some players may contest that making every character and kart similar to one another in terms of performance delimits variety, it is also a strong means of promoting skill as the basis of performance instead of spending capacity. Karts in other kart racing games have different rarities that determine their stats while characters can have different perks, with some having better buffs than others. KartRider: Drift strays from conventional kart games on mobile, including its previous incarnation, KartRider Rush+, by making every character and every kart equal.
