What’s the correct timing for the the starting turbo boost

mario-kart-7

In previous Mario Karts, I haven't had any trouble getting the turbo boost at the beginning of the race. But I can't seem to figure it out in Mario Kart 7 – how do I time the gas to get the starting boost?

Best Answer

To initiate a turbo at the start of the race, hold down the acceleration button right when the number "2" appears, or just a little after it appears.
