Immediately following the starting line (which has the [[Starting Grid|grid]] recolored from black and yellow to red and white and the banner was changed from the one seen in [[Figure-8 Circuit]], [[DS Yoshi Falls|Yoshi Falls]], [[DS Desert Hills|Desert Hills]] and [[DS Wario Stadium|Wario Stadium]] to a steel-framed wooden panel displaying the classic orange ''Mario Kart'' logo), both drop-offs can be used to perform a [[trick]] and gain a small boost. The Bullet Bills have become [[Banzai Bill]]s, are now shot out from the [[Banzai Bill Cannon]] at faster intervals, and are no longer visible on the bottom screen map. Some of the Banzai Bills are larger in scale compared to others. The interior of the airship has some minor changes, most notably the presence of a slight curve within the cellar, while the exterior of it has a [[Warp Pipe]] added near the Pipe Cannon (similar to ''Super Mario Bros. 3's'') and the fortress section has additional towers. The burner room now has a ventilated floor exposing the sky underneath the airship, and the [[Rocky Wrench]]es now make sounds similar to [[Monty Mole]]s. Hitting a Banzai Bill has the similar effect as getting struck by a [[Bob-omb]], a [[Bullet Bill]], or a [[Spiny Shell (blue)|Spiny Shell]], causing the player to tumble and roll over sideways.

Launching out of the Pipe Cannon now encompasses a [[Glide Ramp]]. Players cannot aim their flight and they are also no longer immune to items while in the Pipe Cannon, and being hit by anything (or intentionally stowing their glider) results in having to be rescued by [[Lakitu]].
