Crazy Eight

The Crazy 8 is a new item that is introduced in Mario Kart 8. Very much like its precedent from Mario Kart 7, the Lucky Seven, the Crazy 8 gives players 8 items to use at once, circling around the kart where other racers can feel their effects if they run into one. The only difference between the Lucky Seven and Crazy 8 is that the Crazy 8 contains a coin item as well as the other items the Lucky Seven has. The name is based on the popular card game.
