Figure-8 Circuit

Figure-8 Circuit is a race course in Mario Kart DS that looks like exactly like it sounds, a Figure-8. The course shows nothing speciality, consisting only by two straight and two curves, being an excellent place to practice snaking though. It's the first race course of the Mushroom Cup. This is the place where the player receives the trophy after winning any Cup. Missions 1-1 and 2-2 take place on this circuit. It is comparible to Luigi Circuit of numerous other Mario Kart games, in that it is simple, straitforward, and free of gimmicks.

Official Descriptions

 * Official Website: “This figure-eight shaped course boasts a wide racetrack with easy corners. It’s ideal for constant top-speed racing.”
 * Official European Website: “With just two straights and two bends, your first stop in the mushroom cup season is as simple as they come (with the exception of Baby Park’s basic loop). So hit the gas, impress the crowds and save your strengths for the harder tracks to come.”

Trivia

 * In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, there is a Mario Kart-themed course entitled "Mario Circuit". However, the course itself is a Figure-8, and so it resembles the Figure-8 Circuit more than any Mario Circuit.
