== Emulation Information ==
=== Powersliding Glitch ===
When near the start/finish line while racing on a Lightning themed track, the powerslide effect is glitched out, stretching out like a laser beam toward the finish line. This is a glitch with the game and not Dolphin; this occurs even on a real GameCube. See {{issue|6042}}.

=== Custom Cars ===
If using a bad dump, custom cars show only the pilot floating in mid air and the main body component. Redump the disc to correct the problem. See {{issue|3240}}.

<!-- This problem is not Dolphin's fault, but people will think it is. So keeping it here even though it is user error. This is a great case where having MD5 information for good dumps on the Wiki pages would be beneficial. -->

=== {{s}}Rain on Lightning Track{{/s}} ===
Rain on the Lightning tracks appears incorrectly on the D3D9 backend. It is present, but more difficult to see compared to the other backends, to the point where it is nearly invisible for most of the race. OpenGL and D3D11 display the effect correctly, so use one of them if you wish to see it better. Fixed with the removal of D3D9 in {{revision|4.0-155}}.
