Mario Kart Channel

The Game Mario Kart Wii allows players to install the Mario Kart Channel on their Wii console. The Channel will work without the need of inserting the Mario Kart Wii disc into the system.

The Ranking option lets players see their statistics for each track and compare their results to those of their friends and other players worldwide, represented by their Miis. Players will have the option of racing against the Ghosts of the best players, or improving their results gradually by taking on the Ghosts of rivals whose times are only slightly better than theirs. Players can choose whether they want to share their Time Trial Ghosts with the rest of the world, allowing them to match their skills against the cream of the crop whenever they want.

Another feature of the channel are Competitions, where Nintendo will on a regular basis invite players to speedy challenges similar to the missions of Mario Kart DS. The channel also allows players to check their ranking in running Competitions as well as Time Trials. Players can also register friends and see if any of them are currently online. The channel was released with the game in Japan on April 10, 2008 and will be available for Europe on April 11, 2008, and April 27, 2008 for North America.

No, its just a way of looking at records and ranks. What you can do is record a good track record the send your ghost car to a friend so that they can race against it.
