Blue Falcon: Difference between revisions

The Blue Falcon is an unlockable small vehicle, unlocked by winning the [[Lightning Cup]] in [[Mirror Mode]] or by playing 4,200 races. The kart emphasizes top speed and trades off other stats, similar to its medium and large counterparts (the [[B Dasher Mk. 2|Sprinter]] and [[Jetsetter]] respectively), but not as polarizing. It is the fastest small vehicle in the game, with its top speed being equivalent to the [[Flame Runner]]'s. However, the vehicle is rather light and has average drifting and acceleration, but its other stats are rather low. In fact, the Blue Falcon is the only small vehicle to have a Mini-Turbo lower than thirty, unless driven by Baby Daisy, Koopa Troopa, Dry Bones, or the Mii based on their Mini-Turbo bonuses. Its weight is tied with the Standard Kart S. Its acceleration is tied with the [[Super Blooper (kart)|Super Blooper]]. Its off-road is tied with the [[Honeycoupe]], the [[Wild Wing]], and the [[Sneakster]]. The Blue Falcon's off-road is rather poor; it has the worst off-road performance, handling, and Mini-Turbo out of all small vehicles. The Blue Falcon also has the lowest stat total out of any small vehicle in the game, having 249 stat points.

The Blue Falcon is one of the six vehicles in Mario Kart Wii to not have a counterpart for its size class, with the other five vehicles being the [[Classic Dragster]], [[Jet Bubble]], [[Piranha Prowler]], [[Phantom (bike)|Phantom]], and [[Zip Zip]].

Although it is called the Blue Falcon, most characters driving this vehicle have non-blue color schemes; for example, [[Baby Luigi]] has a green Blue Falcon. If Baby Luigi or [[Baby Daisy]] ride the Blue Falcon, it will surpass the Sprinter's, [[Flame Flyer]] and Sneakster's, and [[Flame Runner]]'s default speed by one point, three points, and five points respectively. Also, if Toadette rides the Blue Falcon, it will surpass the Piranha Prowler's and [[Bullet Bike]]'s default off-road stat by one point.
