Yeah but Yoshi Valley and Banshee Boardwalk more than made up for Rainbow Road's shortcomings. I can't count the number of times I got my ass kicked in those two races before I memorized the course. It takes slick driving to be able to jump and powerslide your way through Banshee Boardwalk without sinking.
