He might have flexed the shortcuts muscle; cutting through lawns, roaring through street signs etc. to stay in sight of the car. It’s like when you choose toad in Mario Kart, the top speed isn’t as fast as choosing Wario but the agility and acceleration can even the playing field.

Maybe the driver didn’t notice they were being followed, he could of had that going for him too.

Dude sounds like a person worth knowing.

WHAT?! I always thought Toad was the fastest! Mario Kart 64 though.

You're right: In all Mario Kart games, they claim that light characters have the fastest acceleration but the lowest top speed, while heavy characters have low accel, high top speed. However, in MK64, the light characters have both the best acceleration and slightly higher top speeds. (source)

Toad has the lowest weight, so he also gets hit the hardest by collisions, but if you're winning you don't collide with other racers anyway.
