Items are used to make progress during the race.

In Item and Flag modes they are used to attack other players or to defend from attacks. They are collected during the race from Item boxes depending on players position.
In Speed and Infinite boost modes the only item is Nitro, which can be collected by drifting or driving more than 130 km/h.
Crossover mode shares both Item and Speed mode item collecting systems.
