I play games on emulators, I was playing the 1999 version of CTR and hmmm it’s way better than Mario kart 64 or Double Dash on GameCube from a gameplay mechanics, fun, enjoyability perspective. Anyone else think so?

Something to remember is that CTR came out three years later than MK64. That was a lot of time for that generation of games.
That said, I remember not liking CTR as a kid because while it had more depth, the friend who had it had put a ton of time into the campaign so I had no chance of keeping up with him trying to pick it up casually through the occasional multiplayer match.
CTR had two methods of play:
Casually playing a kart game and using fun items.
Learning the mechanics of nitro reserves to maintain a high top speed for as long as possible.
You start at 1 until you realize 2 exists.
I don’t think nitro reserves were a mechanic in the original CTR
