Mario Speedwagons

Mario Speedwagons is a 4-player mini-game found in Mario Party 4. Each player starts out in a customized racing car. The goal is the be the first one to cross the finish line. Along the way, the car's gears will need to shift as it picks up speed. This is indicated by the gear numbers flashing in the bottom-right corner. However, correct timing is needed, as shifting too fast or too slow will result in a decrease in speed or no increase in speed, respectively. Likewise, accelerating too quickly at the start can cause the car to not move very much, similar to when in the Mario Kart series, accelerating at the beginning causes the player to burn out and not move much.
