Cows, cows, and more cows. That's all there ever were in the Moo Moo Meadows.
Then came all the racers that zipped on through. Normally, the racers would all be different, but every race or so, all you would ever find is a Funky Kong on a flame Runner.
Or an adult Princess Daisy on a Mach Bike. Or a Baby Daisy riding a Bullet Bike.
The whole track was full of fast characters, and barely any of the others got a chance to shine. One lone Birdo had to survive the surge of five Funky Kongs and five Daisies, as all of them were trying their best to knock Birdo out of the way.
Let's just say that Birdo leaved luck to Heaven, as it gifted her with the Thundercloud, allowing her to go fast while threatening the other racers. And at the last minute, she activated a star, being able to snatch first place away from the other racers, much to their dismay.
