Speed Stats

These floating point sections store the maximum speed achievable under different circumstances of the following order, according to the total points of the player configuration:

Ground / Water / Anti-gravity
- 0 Coins
- 10 Coins
Air
- Any Coins

Handling Stats

These floating point sections store the handling strengths under different circumstances in the following order, according to the total points of the player configuration:

Ground / Water / Anti-gravity
- Steer
- Drift
- Charge
Air
- Roll
- Move

Points

The point sections store how many integral points a kart, part, or driver adds to the total points of different stats the complete configuration yields. The points can range between 0 to 20, and according to those, a different "row" index is read from the statistical tables the above sections form.

The different stats which are affected by points are stored in the following order:

Weight
Acceleration
On-Road Traction

Mini Turbo
Speed Ground
Speed Water
Speed Anti-gravity
Speed Air
Handling Ground
Handling Water
Handling Anti-gravity
