 The Gold Standard returns in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'' and ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', where it has received a small detail change: instead of the character's emblem, the Gold Standard's logo is a number 8 from the game's logo with a wreath of olive leaves around it. This kart and the [[GLA]] are the only kart bodies that do not display the characters' emblems. It is unlocked in ''Mario Kart 8'' by getting a star rank on every GP cup for every engine class, and in ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' by getting a star rank on every GP cup in Mirror mode.
-In ''Mario Kart 8'', the Gold Standard offers a strong boost in speed and a slight boost in weight, but slightly hinders acceleration and highly hinders traction. In terms of its hidden stats, it also boosts speed on every terrain but hinders air handling and mini-turbo. It shares its stats with the [[Mach 8]], [[Circuit Special]], [[Sports Coupe]], [[B Dasher]] and the [[P-Wing (kart)|P-Wing]] vehicle bodies. When all gold parts are combined, it boosts speed on all terrains except water, and weight, but hinders anti-gravity handling and acceleration, and heavily hinders mini-turbo and traction.
+In ''Mario Kart 8'', the Gold Standard offers a strong boost in ground speed and a slight boost in weight, but slightly hinders acceleration and highly hinders traction. In terms of its hidden stats, it also boosts speed on every terrain, but hinders anti-gravity handling and mini-turbo. It shares its stats with the [[Mach 8]], [[Circuit Special]], [[Sports Coupe]], [[B Dasher]], and [[P-Wing (kart)|P-Wing]] vehicle bodies. When all gold parts are combined, it boosts speed on all terrains (except water), along with weight, but hinders anti-gravity handling, acceleration, mini-turbo, and traction.
-In ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', its stats have been altered: it now only slightly boosts land speed, while no longer boosting speed in any other terrain, but rather worsening water speed, as well as no longer boosting weight. It now further hinders acceleration. However, it now hinders air handling rather than anti-gravity handling and doesn't hinder traction or mini-turbo as much as previously. No other kart shares its stats. When all gold parts are combined, the Gold Standard is much worse, as while it still increases ground speed and weight, it now hinders every other stat with the exception of anti-gravity speed and sea handling; it especially hinders acceleration, air and anti-gravity handling, traction, and mini-turbo, all in a heavy way.
+In ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'', the Gold Standard's stats have been altered; it now only slightly boosts ground speed, while no longer boosting speed in any other terrain, but rather worsening water speed, as well as no longer boosting weight. Additionally, acceleration is hindered further, while air handling is now hindered instead of anti-gravity handling. Also, the traction or mini-turbo stats are not hindered as much as previously. The Gold Standard shares its stats with the [[Sneeker]] and [[Master Cycle]]; they also have among the lowest stat totals of any vehicle body. When all gold parts are combined, the Gold Standard is considerably worse than in ''Mario Kart 8'', as while it still increases ground speed and weight, it now hinders every other stat with the exception of anti-gravity speed and water handling; it especially hinders acceleration, air handling, anti-gravity handling, traction, and mini-turbo, all in a heavy way.
