Whenever the game asks me to configure my controls I set them correctly. However, when I load the game up it always makes my kart turn right. I have the controls mapped correctly but then I quit the game and re configure them but the changes I made were changed. Any ideas?

What controller are you using? To my knowledge the game only resets the acceleration and brake binds upon reset.

Im using my keyboard on my laptop

Maybe a secondary binding messing with your controls somewhere? Not sure
