Take them out quick!

“Take them out quick!”

—In-game tagline

Take them out quick! is a bonus challenge in Mario Kart Tour that was introduced in the 2020 Winter Tour. In this bonus challenge, the player chases down a mega-sized opponent and has to hit them with offensive items to take out all of their balloons within a time limit. The course on which the bonus challenge is set features one-item Item Boxes or Frenzy Item Boxes which provide the player's driver with specific items. After a few hits, the opponent turns around to face the player (while driving in the same direction as before) and responds to the player's attacks with items of their own, taking out one of their balloons with each successful hit. The player starts out with two or three balloons, and if all are taken out by the opponent, they fail the challenge. The player can earn up to three Grand Stars from this bonus challenge by clearing it with a certain amount of time left. After its debut in the 2020 Winter Tour, this type of bonus challenge was not used again until the Doctor Tour in 2022, thirty-seven tours later.

Unlike the balloons in Steer Clear of Obstacles, the player and opponent's balloons may randomize through eleven possible colors every time the challenge begins, including resets. The colors include: black, blue, cyan, green, orange, pink, purple, red, teal/turquoise, white, and yellow. There are fifty-five unique color combinations for both balloon sets, regardless of which order they are placed in. If repetitions are counted, there would be sixty-six possible color combinations.
