The course starts in the first space station with its rainbow-colored solar panel. After a turn, the racers drive through the first [[anti-gravity]] section, which is 8-shaped. A [[Glide Ramp]] is found after the anti-gravity section and leads to the second space station with a large imprint of [[Mario]]'s emblem on the entrance. It features [[conveyor belt]]s with opposite directions that changes every 50 seconds, like [[Toad's Factory]] from ''[[Mario Kart Wii]]'', even using red and green as the colors denoting which one is slowing racers down and which one is speeding them up. Unlike that course, though, the green belt has ramps pop up, allowing for [[Jump Boost|trick]]s to be performed. At the end of the conveyor belts, there is a slope with alternating sets of two [[Dash Panel]]s and at the end of it are two Glide Ramps that lead to two intertwining anti-gravity sections. The gliding section consists of three [[Ring (Mario Kart series)|Rings]] that resemble [[Launch Star]]s, and it acts similarly to a [[Cannon (Mario Kart series)|cannon]], though racers can slightly control their gliders. | The course starts in the first space station with its rainbow-colored solar panel.

The anti-gravity paths alter in height, so if the player falls from the highest one, they can generally land on the other one. Each one twists in different ways, forming another 8-shape. Then the paths merge and the anti-gravity section ends. A 180° turn with some Dash Panels along the outermost part, like in [[Mario Kart Stadium]], and another turn make the track loop end. The third 8 is formed by the ending portion of the split path and the 180° turn. At this turn the player can see a hologram projection that says [[Special Cup|"SPECIAL CUP"]] with its trophy logo, albeit only in single-player mode. The racers then return to the space station where the finish line awaits them and begin the next lap. | The anti-gravity paths alter in height, so if the player falls from the highest one, they can generally land on the other one, which is smart.

There are three 8-shaped sections in this course, referencing its game, ''Mario Kart 8''. One is right away from the starting line after exiting the large space station, and the other two are formed by the two twisting paths in the descending anti-gravity segment. | There are three 8-shaped sections in this course, referencing its game, ''Mario Kart 8''.
