This is the only Retro Course in the [[Animal Crossing x Mario Kart 8|''Animal Crossing'' × ''Mario Kart 8'']] DLC pack that has already appeared at least once as a retro track, as well as one of the only two Retro Courses overall not from ''Super Mario Kart'' to appear more than once (the other being [[Yoshi Circuit|<small>GCN</small> Yoshi Circuit]]). One of the major changes made to the race course is that the entire track is now slanted, making it entirely an [[anti-gravity]] race track. The race track now has each half of the U-turn with different colors. The park background has gone through a lot of changes, such as the addition of a "Baby Castle" (which is a nod to {{wp|Cinderella Castle|Cinderella's Castle}} at the {{wp|Magic Kingdom}}), new rides added like a haunted house attraction based on [[Luigi's Mansion (place)|Luigi's Mansion]], and some of the returning background rides being heavily redesigned, like the Bowser's Ship ride and the Ferris wheel, now resembling the [[Pinna Park|Sun Wheel]] from ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]''. Also, the starting banner now shows Baby Mario and Baby Luigi with their shirts, overalls and shoes on as opposed to being solely in diapers like the previous versions. They also have been given slight animations that are found on rides, where they move back and forth. | ||

The race on this course has seven laps just like in the original and the revamped music now increases in speed after every lap, making it the first retro course to do this. On the final lap, the guard rails light up and become multi-colored and like with [[Rainbow Road (N64)|remade <small>N64</small> Rainbow Road]], the last part of the music starts to play instead of the beginning of it. It is the only retro course and one of three DLC courses (along with [[Mute City]] and [[Big Blue]]) to be entirely an anti-gravity race track. This is the shortest track in the game and the only track with more than three laps/sections. Baby Park is also the only track in ''Mario Kart 8'' where players cannot perform [[trick]]s. | The race on this course has seven laps just like in the original and the revamped music now increases in speed after every lap, making it the first retro course to do this.
