FYI, the first Tournament started yesterday. It isn't exactly what I expected a "tournament" to be, but it is interesting none the less. Also, I'm pretty sure I have been unlocking characters and carts by playing online. I'm positive at least some were a result of the # of races I've won on WFC.

I still get my fastest times on the bikes, I guess I just don't get the karts...

What is the deal with Nintendo underestimating demand? First, Wiis are hard to find at retail shops and are still selling above retail online. Now, they don't provide enough server bandwidth to let us all play Mario kart online without occasional failures. If I didn't love their product, I'd be pissed.
