Announcement
Attention Racers,
In the wake of the hitbox error that was discovered with the Rhinoceros Beetle Kart, we went back and checked over every kart to ensure that the kart's models and hitboxes were properly aligned. Unfortunately, a number of Karts were found to have a similar discrepancy, whether the kart's hitbox was larger or smaller than its in-game model. With the August 9 (PT) Mid-Season 3 Update, we will be updating the hitboxes of some karts to more closely match their in-game models. These changes will come in one of two forms:
Type 1: Hitbox Size Smaller than In-Game Model
The following karts had a hitbox that was smaller than their in-game model, and the hitbox will be increased to compensate for this.
We sincerely apologize for this error, and understand that correcting this error may affect your racing performance. As such, we will be resetting the upgrade status of these karts and refunding the Lucci spent on upgrading them during the August 9 (PT) Maintenance.
The images of the karts below indicate the Before (left) and After (right) status of the hitboxes (the purple overlay over the karts). Please note that in-game models have not been changed with this update.

Note: Wheels have been highlighted for clarity, as the rear wheels are located beneath the kart's body.

Type 2: Hitbox Size Larger than In-Game Model
The following karts had a hitbox that was larger than their in-game model, resulting in collisions that should not have occurred, and the hitbox will be shrunk to compensate for this.
