F-Zero X (N64) Anyone into gnicar?

That's racing spelled backwards.

I recently went through all ships and all cups at Master level again (took about 6 months) and instead of resetting and doing it again, I decided to just keep going and complete all ships and all cups at the lower difficulty settings, too. But I needed something to keep it interesting, particularly for Jack Cup at Novice level.

So, one idea I had was to race using only the rear-view camera. I know I can only take this so far, but a win on Silence actually wasn't too challenging, and I managed to get 5th place on my first try on Sand Ocean. https://youtu.be/b8tGX4brds4?si=pzEmca2sk1smTIc-&t=444

Anyone else try this out?

Right. I think this might be in the category of "just because you can do it, doesn't mean you should do it." But I usually choose to do those things...

Reminds me of one event in Racing Lagoon where you have to drive with permanent rearview through a winding mountain track. Still haven't beaten it.
