mario kart FTW!!!!

luigi circuit 





"Shortcuts

The small ramp just before the last turn can be used to gain an extra item block but provides a negligible time gain. A Mushroom is required to access this ramp without losing time. Players possessing a Mushroom can also skip the last turn by boosting through the dirt while being careful to avoid the warp pipes sticking out of the ground."
This level is really quite simple mainly using bends like a typical race track. it also uses speed boosts on the ground to give players a short increase in speed. the track is made more interesting with the use of the simple short cut which gives players more items.
bowser castle 3 
original track from super mario kart


" A shortcut can be performed by aiming left at the last yellow ramp and using a mushroom"
This is a long track and uses many 90 degree turns making it hard to control cars and especially bikes to gain enough speed. 

Mushroom gorge



the mushrooms are marked as the separated circles on the map in the bottom right corner

"Shortcuts

In Mushroom Gorge, there is a shortcut that will allow the player to speed past the regular curving route and get a boost, although it requires a Mushroom, and is recommended for Time Trials. After starting the race with a turbo boost, the player should head to the left. After the player has headed left, they'll see that there's no fence and that there's a crevice. As soon as the player is a few lengths away from the crevice, use a Mushroom to get a boost. The player will be flung onto a large Mushroom. Perform a trick, bounce on the other giant Mushroom, perform a trick, and the player should land back on the pathway.
Also, by the last U-turn, if the player cuts across the grassy patch with some sort of speed boost and doesn't fall into the crevice, there is a time gain of a second or two."

This is one of my favorite tracks in the game. its simple but challenging. the track involves the dirt track with a few bends and then jumping over individual mushrooms with the risk of falling off them and choosing the right path that is the quickest. players can also perform speed boosts on them with could risk in them falling off.

"Shortcuts
There are no major shortcuts in Moo Moo Meadows, although in the area with the cows it is possible to go across the fields with a Mushroom to avoid the moving cattle and speed up. Another shortcut is in the area with the Monty Moles. A Mushroom can help the player speed across the grass spots"
the layout of the level is quite a generic with slight bends but what makes it interesting is how a herd of cattle will walk across the road which players must avoid or will crash. the cattle walk further into the road as the laps increase. there is also a hilly area in which players can go around them, go over which can slow them down or use the ramps to jump over them. there are also moles running around the hills meaning the player could land on them if timing is wrong. 
delfino square



"Shortcuts

After passing the first bridge and making a left-hand turn, there will be a hidden passage, which is past some crates. This off-road shortcut can heavily slow down any vehicle, regardless of off-road statistics, so a Mushroom or a Star is required to get through it quickly"
this i another long track that involves many bends around a town square. the short cut is also very interesting as it can slow you down just as much if the right power up isn't used.

downwards hill at start
waves in roads (player can jump at right moment for speed boost)
8 shape with holes meaning players can possibly fall down
rainbow tunnel, powers up don't work in here
