-'''Rainbow Road''' is the fourth and last course of the [[Special Cup]] in ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]''. Like the [[N64 Rainbow Road|Rainbow Road]] in ''[[Mario Kart 64]]'', the track is translucent, but it is now greatly simplified to fit the hardware limitations of the [[Game Boy Advance]], being heavily based on the [[SNES Rainbow Road|original Rainbow Road]]. Edges of the course are lined with jumping humps. Skilled racers can use [[Dash Mushroom|Mushroom]]s to perform shortcuts. The track features falling stars that can make racers spin out and [[Thunder Cloud]]s that can shrink them. [[Bowser's Castle#Paper Mario|Bowser's Castle]] from ''[[Paper Mario]]'' can be seen in the background.
