The track begins just before a ramp with a [[Dash Panel]] on it, which sends the player flying into a somewhat straight, downhill section of a track. This part of the track tends to be very bumpy and causes Shells and Eggs to bounce around, which hinders their homing skills. After a slight curve to the right and a straight road, there is a sharp pair of switchbacks, which is followed by another Dash Panel that sends the player flying. The ramp actually leads to a road lower than the previous, both with lengthy Dash Panels on a straight road that leads the player into a helix with multiple Dash Panels on it. | The track begins just before a ramp with a [[Dash Panel]] on it, which sends the player flying into a somewhat straight, downhill section of a track.

Dash Panels and [[Item Box]]es are present in this helix. The Dash Panels can help the player speed up, or help the player plummet to their doom until [[Lakitu]] saves them. Past the long helix is a bump road that is straight, but then waves near the end of the long straight road. The road is also very bumpy here and shooting stars hit here and become [[Star]]s for the player to play around with and mess up the other racer's progress by knocking them over the cliff. Past the wavy road is a curve to the left and a pipe. Any item thrown in the pipe gets destroyed and players are invincible when blasted up the pipe. | ||
At the end of the pipe, the player falls down and hits another large Dash Panel, sending the player into a long road, also with a lot of smaller Dash Panels that can help or hinder the player. Stars can also spawn here. After this straight road is a ramp with more Dash Panels on it, and it leads the player to a downwards helix.

Stars can also spawn here. After this straight road is a ramp with more Dash Panels on it, and it leads the player to a downwards helix. The downwards helix is sharper and shorter than the previous one, and it leads the player into the finish line again, which starts the cycle again and another lap. | ||
The official website claims that Rainbow Road is the longest course in the game; this is false, as [[Wario Colosseum]] is longer. However, Rainbow Road is a 3-lap track, so it does take longer to finish than Wario Colosseum, which is a 2-lap track. | The official website claims that Rainbow Road is the longest course in the game; this is false, as [[Wario Colosseum]] is longer.
