Maybe they could actually make the game give actual stats that affect items or something. Like a stat that affects how hard a blue shell hits or a stat the increases your chance of getting a good item in a higher position. As it stands it's like the stats on the karts are designed with a more realistic racer in mind, which Mario Kart is not, never was, and hopefully never will be.
There's an item stat in MKWii, but, of course, karts that have this stat high generally suck in everything else. It would be funny if everyone who has been hit with 3 blue shells in the span of 30 seconds (so yeah, everyone) has hit with karts that are high in this stat.
