Yoshi Park 2

Yoshi Park 2 is a track in Mario Kart Arcade GP 2. Designed and resembling Yoshi Park 1, it has easy curves and many item boxes. The only difference between the two courses is that there are few more light curves, and Shy Guys are slight obstacles early in the course, spinning karts out if the player hits them. Yoshi Park 2 and Yoshi Park 1 are the only courses in the game that were not introduced in Mario Kart Arcade GP.

Mario Kart Arcade GP DX reuses this course's layout as the basis for Kingdom Way.

Course layout
Yoshi Park 2 starts at the same place as Yoshi Park 1. However, instead of turning into the tunnel on the left after the first upward slope, the track turns to the right tunnel into the Trick House. Giant blue cogs circle around the entrance to the house. In here large pictures of Toad, Toadette and Toadsworth can be seen, as well as a picture of a Super Mushroom and a Fire Flower. The Trick House includes features of a regular house, but different segments of it frequently spin around the track at high speeds. Neither the players nor the course is affected by this.

After exiting the Trick House more giant blue cogs circle around the track, and after a sharp turn to the left the players drive past the Castle of Cake and under a part of the course from Yoshi Park 1. There is a row of Item Boxes and then a steep upward slope leading to the Horror House. As its name implies, it has a design similar to a haunted house, taking designs from Luigi's Mansion such as Boos, Gold Ghosts and its relatives. The house itself has many cobwebs, old photo frames, and wooden walls and ceiling.

The racers then go outside of the house, but after a sharp right turn the track leads inside another haunted house, having nothing but a giant picture of King Boo inhaling many ghosts and the racers. The track leads into King Boo's mouth, and as it turns out it's actually a warp back to the starting line.

Trivia

 * Some of the abnormally-colored ghosts in the artwork resemble ghosts seen in the E3 2001 demo of Luigi's Mansion.
