How many challenges? Not much…yet! For the reason of progression, I’m trying to conserve the birds energy by not doing more than 10 challenge rounds per track. I would like to unlock all (current?) racers before shifting my focus to that. Although, once I get started on a challenge…well, lets just say that I’ve wasted a lot more energy than I would have liked…

@wazemank I find your analysis on the final 3 challenges you listed interesting. I also suspect a challenge I am working is impossible. The specific challenge is Air > Track 1 > Time Bomb > score 125,000. I complete the same challenge in race, but I don’t see how it’s possible in Time Bomb, due to their being no other karts to crash into. I’ve considered the thought that time and avoiding all obstacles may be factors, but the former seems to (at least for me) a non factor and the latter seems impossible, due to a big block of ice near the end.

I haven’t concluded that it is impossible, but after reading your post, I can’t help but think that some challenges are impossible. It’s weird, because every challenge in any game should be possible. Perhaps their is an update coming that makes certain challenges that are currently impossible, possible?

Regarding the challenge I’m currently at: If I’m missing something here, feel free to tell me. I’m going to take a little break from it and come back to it in about a week or so.

Well, I ended up completing it. Got a base score of 123,???(something). Challenge round 2 bumped me up to 125,000. For the user above and anyone else that may stumble upon this thread looking for help, I’ll try my best to explain how I did it.

Their are 3 thigs that were pretty important for my success:

1) Finishing first

2) Making most of my air time

3) Spending a lot of time during the race smashing into other karts

I started by aiming the kart as far right as possible, with the intention of hitting the karts to my right. So as I kept smashing I took the path to the top right of the track; the space is small, making it the best place to start getting your smash points. If you find yourself getting ahead of the other karts, simply run into a tnt box to slow yourself down. After that…just try to keep playing that way. Make most of your air time when going down and collect as many coins as possible.

Hope that helps!

On another note, I got this same challenge for the timed race. Does anyone know how this is possible? Is time a factor? Do you get any type of bonus for avoiding all obstacles? There is this big block of ice near the end that seems unavoidable. I’ve stopped trying to complete the challenge for now, as it seems impossible, but I would like to hear from others that have attempted/completed that specific challenge.
