'''Dragon Driftway''' is a race course included with [[The Legend of Zelda x Mario Kart 8|''The Legend of Zelda'' × ''Mario Kart 8'']] downloadable content in ''[[Mario Kart 8]]'', as well as the base content of ''[[Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]'', as the third course of the [[Egg Cup]]. The course is Chinese-themed, taking place in and around a statue of a dragon that is based on [[Gobblegut]], though it has legs. Throughout the course, various statues and murals of [[Lakitu]] appear. The dragon structure in this race course never actually ends with its tail, as it loops back to the start. This may be a reference to the ancient cultural symbol of the {{wp|ouroboros}}, depicting a snake eating its own tail.

Similar to [[Mario Circuit (Mario Kart 8)|Mario Circuit]], almost the entirety of the course is played in [[anti-gravity]], with only the beginning and end segments near the start/finish line having normal gravity. The music for this course is included in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' as a track, and the ''Mario Kart 8 Deluxe'' battle course [[Dragon Palace]] uses a modified version of the music. The second part of the song has a melody that resembles the theme for the [[Chai Kingdom]] from ''[[Super Mario Land]]''.
