N64 Kalimari Desert



Kalimari Desert is a race course in Mario Kart 64. The course's most notable feature is the train track that goes through a mesa. The train constantly moves around the track, often crossing through the racers' path. Depending on what mode is being played, the train may or may not have coaches attached to it. If the player is in the track or runs into it, the player gets stunned. It is possible to drive in the track's course. Despite its name, there are no squid, just lots of cacti. The course contains a small shortcut that can be done by using a mushroom to jump over the track.

Trivia

 * The Name is a pun of the real life, Kalahari Desert in Southern Africa.
 * The music used on this course was later used in Paper Mario for the train ride on the K64, which greatly resembled the train featured in this course.
