It’s exactly as in Mario Kart 64! Remember, heavy characters have the higher top speed, but light characters have the higher acceleration!

I distinctly remember that the light characters had the highest top speed in Mario Kart 64. And according to this table, I'm right: https://tasvideos.org/GameResources/N64/MarioKart64#:~:text=...
That'd make the heavy characters completely useless, once you're behind, there's no way to catch up anymore!
Heavy characters in Mario 64 have tighter handling than lighter characters and can cause them to spin out when bumping into them.

It's not a big difference and you can't be at top speed for long.
Yes, except for items and doing better in the pack.
It was similar in the original Mario Kart of the SNES. I clearly remember always choosing toad or koopa because they "felt" the more average to me. Donkey Kong was difficult to handle and also had slow acceleration, same with bowser.
