Brian doesn't want to do anything nintendo related since one of the races we get to do is based on Mario Kart! Meaning, we get to throw things in the paths of others, hooray!

You could go as the Reaper from Death Note, or Jack Skellington, since both are tall and angular like you.



Or paint the Skull from Deathproof on an all-black hotwheel and draw a fake scar on your face!







OR it could just be a Kurt Russel-themed race. Big Trouble in Little China, do it!
