About this converter
Deluxe drivers run DV 1 to 10. Babies at 1, Toad and Shy Guy at 2, Mario and Luigi at 6, DK and Roy at 9, Bowser, Morton and Wario at 10. That makes Bowser ten babies of driver speed. Menu bars read (Lv plus 3) over 4 from driver plus body plus tire plus glider over 0 to 20. Every figure here is the driver DV number from the MarioWiki game data set, with parts kept in context.
How to use it
Pick two drivers and the unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked: one holds a count of the first, one the matching count of the second, one the total in speed. Change any box and the other two update. Try 1 Bowser against Babies.
Parts stay out of rows: karts, bikes, ATVs, tires and gliders each add 0 to 5, so only driver DV is rowed with combo math noted. Coins add top speed in race and stay out of garage math. Bowser 10 against Baby 1 shows ten to one. Mario 6 splits the field at middle with Luigi tied. DK 9 against Toad 2 shows heavy over light by seven. Morton 10 ties Bowser at max with Wario. Roy 9 ties DK near max.
