How to Do an Ultra Mini Turbo

Maintain Your Drift

Drifting or doing Wall Rides charges your Mini-Turbo, with the latter charging it faster. Keep charging it until you reach its third level, the Ultra Mini Turbo! You'll know you've reached the third level once you see pink sparks on your vehicle.

Use Characters With High Acceleration

Pick a Kart with High Acceleration

There's a chance that characters with high acceleration stats have hidden Mini-Turbo stats. With this in mind, it's recommended to use characters with high acceleration stats to enjoy Mini-Turbos longer!

Mini-Turbos can also be charged via wall-riding!

There are three levels of the Mini-Turbo, each with a different duration. This said duration as the level increases. The Mini-Turbo has the shortest duration. The Super Mini-Turbo has a longer duration, and the Ultra-Mini Turbo has the longest.

Each Mini-Turbo level has a distinct color, making it easy to distinguish one from another. Mini-Turbo will have blue sparks on your wheels, while the Super Mini-Turbo will have orange sparks. The Ultra-Mini Turbo will be colored pink, making it the most distinct color of all three.

Why Can’t I Do an Ultra Mini Turbo?

Make Sure Smart Steering Is Off

Turn Off Smart Steering

During the kart selection screen, press the button for Settings/Controller, then select Smart Steering to deactivate it.

Smart Steering is only recommeded for players with barely to no experience. You can also see its activated thanks to the black antenna at the back of the vehicle.
