That was not my recollection of how it was supposed to work or how it worked in practice, but I found an archive of the original guidebook, and it says exactly what you said. Interesting. I got passed up by Donkey Kong and Bowser on straightaways all the time, but maybe that's more of a mirror mode challenge thing than a size of the karts things.
Oh yeah, that's probably just the rubber band effect, which was pretty strong at 150cc.
